With Kevin Porter Jr. (knee) out Sunday, Rollins stepped into the starting lineup and managed 36 minutes of action. The 23-year-old point guard is an important player for the Bucks anyway, but his fantasy ceiling is raised when he’s inserted into the starting lineup. Rollins has provided fourth-round per game value over the last two weeks.

Portis and Giannis Antetokounmpo carried the Bucks’ offense in this one as the duo combined for 60 points in the win over the Pacers on Sunday. Even with Antetokounmpo active, Portis saw massive usage in this game. He’s provided sixth-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Bucks have three games upcoming in Week 21, starting with a matchup against the Cavaliers on Tuesday.

Antetokounmpo returned from a one-game absence and went right back to providing first-round value. The 31-year-old power forward briefly headed to the locker room in the second half for a leg issue, but returned to the bench and said after the game he felt he could’ve returned to the game. The Bucks have three games upcoming in Week 21, starting with a matchup against the Cavaliers on Tuesday.

Portis has been dealing with a back strain for a bit, but he has only missed one game. The veteran forward most recently logged 27 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Hawks. With Myles Turner (knee) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) also on the injury report, the Bucks could be severely shorthanded on Sunday, with no great streaming options in the frontcourt.

Turner, who logged 24 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Hawks, is on the injury report due to right patellar tendinitis.

Also, Pete Nance’s playing time could increase out of necessity.

Due to an illness that forced an early exit from Thursday’s loss to the Heat, Dieng was held out of Saturday’s loss to the Hawks. Jericho Sims was inserted into the starting lineup but offered minimal value, finishing with more turnovers (four) than rebounds (two). While Sims could get another start if Dieng remains out, there’s no need to stream him.

While the defensive production has largely been non-existent, Banchero has been a much-improved option in category leagues since the All-Star break. Averaging 25.5 points, 9.1 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.3 three-pointers while shooting 49.6 percent from the field and 82.1 percent from the foul line, the Magic forward has been a top-25 player since February 19. The Magic play four games in Week 21, starting with the Hawks on Monday.

Bane has scored at least 21 points in three straight and four of his last five games, and his scoring output has increased since the All-Star break. After averaging 19.6 points per game before the break, the Magic guard has accounted for 24.7 points per night on 56 percent shooting since February 19. The increased scoring is one reason why Bane has provided first-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats since the break.

While Howard has not been productive enough to merit rostering in most fantasy leagues, his absence leaves the Magic down another rotation wing. The Magic may have to ask even more of Tristan da Silva, who has performed well as a starter in recent games. Noah Penda may also pick up a few more minutes, but he is not a must-stream player.

Porter finished Saturday’s defeat with a solid stat line, with the seven assists being the most in a game for him since recording ten in a February 27 loss to the Knicks. He has been one of the biggest surprises in fantasy basketball this season, even if fantasy managers expected his value to receive a bump due to Milwaukee’s point guard rotation. The Bucks end Week 20 with a game against the Pacers on Sunday.

With no Giannis Antetokounmpo in the fold, Rollins returned to the starting lineup on Saturday. While the Bucks were on the wrong end of a blowout, he had a good game individually. With the Bucks playing again on Sunday, Giannis’ return would likely push Rollins to the bench, but he remains a player who should be rostered in 12-team leagues.

With Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) and Ousmane Dieng (illness) both ruled out, Rollins and Sims have moved into the starting lineup. Rollins is the more interesting fantasy option as he just had 16 points and 10 assists in 33 minutes off the bench in Thursday’s loss to the Heat.

Dieng was initially listed as questionable with an illness, but has since been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Hawks. The 22-year-old small forward left Thursday’s loss to the Heat after only playing 14 minutes. AJ Green could make a spot start with Dieng out, though he’s not worth the risk in most fantasy leagues.

Porter was initially listed as questionable but has since been ruled in for Saturday’s game against the Hawks. The 25-year-old shooting guard returned after missing four games and had six points, seven rebounds and five assists in 28 minutes in Thursday’s loss to the Heat.

Antetokounmpo has been available for five of the last six Bucks games, but he missed the last back-to-back and is set to sit out Saturday’s game against the Hawks ahead of Sunday’s matchup with the Pacers. The 31-year-old power forward continues to manage a calf injury. The Bucks figure to rely heavily on Myles Turner and Bobby Portis with Antetokounmpo sidelined.

Milwaukee closes the week with a back-to-back, making it possible that fantasy managers get one game out of Antetokounmpo instead of two. If he plays the Hawks on Saturday, Giannis likely won’t play the Pacers on Sunday. He sat out the second game of Milwaukee’s most recent back-to-back, a loss to the Magic on March 8.

Following a one-game absence with a back injury, Portis was back playing his typical role off the bench. Though it wasn’t enough for the Bucks to get the win, he has his highest-scoring performance since Feb. 24 and shot at least 50 percent from the floor for a ninth straight game. Portis is a solid reserve that ranks inside the top-100 in nine-category leagues over the past two weeks. However, his limited minutes will continue to cap his upside.

With Kevin Porter Jr. (knee) back in the lineup, Rollins returned to playing a role off the bench. However, he still played 33 minutes to KPJ’s 27 and was far more productive. Rollins has been one of the most improved players in the NBA this season, and as long as he is playing big minutes, he’ll continue to be a strong fantasy asset. However, he may be limited if he continues to come off the bench.

Antetokounmpo has been available for five of the Bucks’ last six games, but this was his best offensive performance. In fact, this was his highest-scoring performance since Jan. 11, which was over two months prior to this game. Giannis hasn’t been quite as productive as he typically is, most notably a lack of production on the glass. He’ll look to build on this scoring performance in Saturday’s game in Atlanta.

For the first time since the end of February, Bane has surpassed 20 points in consecutive games. One night removed from dropping 35 in a win over the Cavaliers, he had another good night shooting-wise, knocking down 50 percent of his attempts. All that Bane’s line lacked was a blocked shot, and he has been a top-10 player in fantasy basketball since the All-Star break. Orlando ends Week 20 with a game against the Heat on Saturday.

The Magic received double-doubles from two of their starting frontcourt players, Carter and Paolo Banchero (18/11/5). The former produced a complete stat line against the Wizards, with the four defensive contributions being the most in a game for Carter since a January 18 loss to the Grizzlies. Carter’s season-long fantasy value has been solid, but he remains a challenging player to trust fully in 12-team leagues.
