Conley is back after sitting out Sunday’s win over the Jazz for rest reasons. His return means Donte DiVincenzo heads to the bench, but standard league managers who have Donte rostered should hold onto him. He can still provide solid value as the sixth man.

McDaniels has scored at least 10 points in every game he’s played in since February. The two-way wing is rebounding well and has posted 1.8 and 1.1 blocks per game in March. He’ll look to keep up his prowess on both ends against the Pacers on Monday.

Rostered in 36 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Johnson has provided respectable fantasy value since the All-Star break. He has been a 10th-round player in nine-cat formats since the break, averaging 16.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.6 three-pointers per game. While Johnson doesn’t possess the upside of teammate Stephon Castle, injuries to other players have made him worthy of a look in 12-team leagues. And the Spurs have a good upcoming schedule, as they’ll play 12 games over weeks 20 through 22.

Like teammate Devin Vassell, Castle did not shoot the ball well on Saturday. The good news for those who have him rostered is that the rookie dished out seven assists, his highest tally since March 1. Since the All-Star break, Castle is ranked just inside the top 200 in eight-cat per-game value. Under normal circumstances, there would be no reason for 54 percent of Yahoo! league managers to roster the rookie. However, with De’Aaron Fox and Victor Wembanyama done for the season, Castle is worth the risk in 12-team leagues.

Vassell’s field goal percentage was subpar, but the overall stat line was one that many fantasy managers would live with. Since the All-Star break, the Spurs wing has been a fourth-round player in nine-cat formats, rewarding those who did not drop Vassell in a panic while he struggled. And with De’Aaron Fox (finger) done for the season, the ball will be in Vassell’s hands more as the Spurs conclude their season. He can potentially be a league-winner, provided the shooting accuracy improves.

McDaniels has reached double figures in scoring in 20 straight games, sustaining the momentum gained when the Timberwolves played without Julius Randle. Jaden may not hit 20 points consistently, but the scoring output hasn’t fallen off a cliff. Add the defensive numbers, and McDaniels has been a second-round player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks. He’s rostered in 68 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and 10-team managers needing defensive stats should consider adding McDaniels ahead of Sunday’s game against the Jazz.

Randle has scored 20 points or more in consecutive games for the first time since late January, before he missed a month with a strained groin. The Timberwolves forward has averaged 19.3 points per game since his return, providing fifth-round value in eight-cat formats. In addition to the scoring, Randle has accounted for at least five assists in five of his last seven outings. And with the Timberwolves hosting the Jazz on Sunday, he’ll have a good opportunity to end Week 19 on a hight note.

Edwards and the Timberwolves have been on a roll, winning seven straight games. And the team’s willingness to share the basketball has been key. Minnesota recorded 26 assists on Friday, with Edwards responsible for five of them. Since the break, he has averaged 5.2 helpers per game, slightly higher than his mark for the season (4.6). Edwards has been a third-round player in eight-cat formats since the break and a top-25 player for the season.

Vassell had been one of the primary beneficiaries of additional usage on the Spurs since Victor Wembanyama went down with a season-ending injury. Now the Spurs have been dealt another blow with De’Aaron Fox going down for the rest of the year. Vassell will continue to benefit along with Stephon Castle as the two led the Spurs in shot attempts Friday.

Fantasy managers that dropped Castle after the Spurs acquired De’Aaron Fox must be kicking themselves now. The 20-year-old shooting guard had to hit the bench after San Antonio’s acquisition of Fox. He still had some good games, but his ceiling was certainly lower. Now with Fox out for the rest of the season, Castle will start again and has a chance to be a difference maker down the stretch of the season and in the fantasy playoffs.

Charania’s report said that the surgery will take place on Tuesday and will expedite his recovery for next season. Fox suffered the injury during training camp and had been playing through it all season. Over the Spurs’ final 18 games of the regular season, Stephon Castle should slide into the starting lineup and have a chance to strengthen his case for Rookie of the Year. Fox averaged 19.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 1.5 steals in 34 minutes across his 17 games with San Antonio this season.

Gobert returned from a 10-game absence due to a back injury Sunday against the Spurs. The 32-year-old center played 30 minutes against the Nuggets Wednesday and was able to put up a double-double. It appears Gobert is close to playing without limitations at this point.

Randle has had at least 20 points in three of six games so far in March, showing he still has life in fantasy this season.

Edwards scored at least 25 points for the third time in his last four games. The 23-year-old shooting guard also made at least five 3-pointers for the third time in his last six games.

Sochan missed Monday’s game against the Mavericks with a calf injury, but returned Wednesday after a one-game absence despite initially being listed as questionable. The 21-year-old power forward poured in 18 points including two made 3-pointers. He also grabbed seven rebounds in just 24 minutes. Sochan has emerged as the big man with the most fantasy value on San Antonio in the wake of Victor Wembanyama’s season-ending injury.

Vassell hasn’t missed a game since December, but was listed as questionable with a wrist injury Wednesday. Nevertheless, the 24-year-old shooting guard suited up and had a double-double against the Mavericks. Vassell only scored 16 points on 14 shots, but was active on the glass with 10 rebounds and dished out six assists. He’s been one of the beneficiaries of Victor Wembanyama’s injury as he’s provided sixth-round fantasy value since the All-Star break.

Fox scored at least 30 points for the first time in 17 games since he was acquired by the Spurs before the trade deadline. The 27-year-old point guard was just one rebound shy of a triple-double as he pulled down nine rebounds in the win over the Mavericks. Fox played 41 minutes Wednesday, but he had played less than 30 minutes in two of the previous four games. San Antonio could look to curtail his minutes down the stretch as their lottery chances become a priority, which would be frustrating for fantasy managers.

Vassell had been quieter over San Antonio’s last two games after scoring 37 points last week, but he got back on track as a scoring option on Monday. His slump appears to be over, and he has contributed value in other areas, which has helped his fantasy impact. He has averaged 18.5 points, five rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.6 steals and 2.8 three-pointers per game over the last two weeks, which ranks inside the top-40 in nine-cat scoring. He should continue to be a strong option for the rest of the season.

Johnson came up big in the second half of Monday’s game, scoring 20 of his 28 points after the break. That wasn’t enough for San Antonio to get the win, but he did tie his season-high for scoring, which he has now reached three times this season. Johnson isn’t a great option in category formats, but he is more than capable of getting hot and knocking down a ton of shots. They play Dallas again on Wednesday, and Johnson will look to keep the offensive production going.

Despite being a consistent starter, Barnes has been a non-factor in fantasy basketball this season. He’s an efficient player that can hit some three-pointers, but he doesn’t help in any individual category. However, he was unconscious as a scorer in Monday’s loss. His two missed field goal attempts were both three-pointers, meaning he made all eight of his two-point attempts. He didn’t enjoy that same success at the free throw line as he made just one of his three shots. This was an excellent performance from him, but there is a reason that he is rostered in just 13 percent of Yahoo! leagues despite playing 27.4 minutes per game.

Gobert returned to the Timberwolves’ lineup after a 10-game absence, and, as expected, the veteran center was under a minutes restriction. The 7-foot-1 pivot only playing 20 minutes was good news for Naz Reid managers, as he tallied 20 points, seven rebounds, four assists, two blocks and four three-pointers in 27 minutes off the bench. Reid’s fantasy value will be fine, especially if the Timberwolves are conservative with Gobert’s playing time.

While Randle’s scoring output was limited on Sunday, the rebounds and assists made up for it. He hit double digits in assists for the first time this season, and Randle’s production has increased in that category recently. Accounting for at least nine assists in three straight games, he’s averaged 7.2 per game since the All-Star break. By comparison, Randle is averaging 4.6 per game for the season. And since the break, he has been a fifth-round player in eight-cat formats.

On a night when eight Timberwolves scored in double figures, DiVincenzo shot 4-of-8 from beyond the arc and scored 17 points. He’s reached double figures in six straight games and has been a top-40 player in nine-cat formats since returning from a toe injury. DiVincenzo was a starter before his injury, but Timberwolves coach Chris Finch has decided to bring him off the bench. This approach has boosted Mike Conley’s fantasy value, as he has been an eighth-round player since February 27. Conley finished Sunday’s win with 13 points, five rebounds, five assists and three three-pointers in 23 minutes.

Edwards played well on a night when the Timberwolves shared the ball, as five players attempted between 10 and 15 shots. Before Sunday, the last time he needed fewer than 20 attempts to make 10 was December 8 against the Warriors. Since the All-Star break, Edwards has been a top 40 player in eight- and nine-cat formats, and he’s gotten the turnovers in check. Averaging 3.3 per game for the season, Edwards has that number down to 2.2 since the break.

Castle has scored 20 points or more in five of his last six appearances, and Sunday’s performance was efficient. The rookie guard did not commit a turnover in his 28 minutes on the floor, the second time he’s done so since the All-Star break. While the weekend in San Francisco may have worn Castle down some, he’s bounced back from a slow start to the “second half.” Rostered in 46 percent of Yahoo! leagues, the Spurs guard has been a 10th-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats over his last six.

Fox had a good night shooting the basketball, making 66.7 percent of his attempts. However, it wasn’t enough to keep the Spurs from getting blitzed in Minneapolis, the team’s seventh loss in nine games. While there may be a desire to give Fox all the time he needs to place his imprint on the roster, it’s fair to wonder if the Spurs will either decrease his minutes or hold him out of the occasional game as the season winds down. San Antonio plays four games during Week 19, starting with the Mavericks on Monday.

Fox was traded to the Spurs prior to the trade deadline after he and the Kings failed to agree on a contract extension. On Friday, the 27-year-old point guard struggled in a matchup against his former teammates. Fox had 16 points on 17 shots as he shot 35 percent from the floor. It was an off-night, but Fox has been solid overall since the All-Star break as he ranks just outside the top-50 in fantasy value in that time.

Castle has now scored at least 22 points in four of his last five games. The 20-year-old shooting guard has made at least 50 percent of his field goals in four of his last five games as well.

The Timberwolves reserves outscored their Heat counterparts by a 37-35 margin, with DiVincenzo and Nickeil Alexander-Walker (12 points, two rebounds, one steal, two blocks and three three-pointers) leading the way. Since returning from his toe injury, DiVincenzo has provided top-30 value in nine-cat formats. Whether he starts or comes off the bench, the Timberwolves guard will provide reliable fantasy value.

No singular Timberwolves player stood out offensively on Friday, as seven players scored between 12 and 15 points. However, Reid continues to provide solid value with Rudy Gobert (back) out of the lineup. Since February 13 (Gobert last played on February 12), Reid has averaged 18.1 points, 9.7 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 0.7 steals, 1.3 blocks and 2.7 three-pointers per game.

Randle finished Friday’s win one assist shy of a triple-double, which would have been his first as a Timberwolves player. He was one of seven players to score between 12 and 15 points, as the balanced offensive effort was enough to get Minnesota its third straight road victory. Since returning to the lineup on March 2, Randle has been a sixth-round player in eight-cat formats (eighth-round in nine-cat). He’ll look to end Week 18 on a high when the Timberwolves host the Spurs on Sunday.

Edwards did not look like himself for most of Friday’s game and was even late to the court for the third quarter. Following the win, Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said his star guard was dealing with an illness, hence his not starting the second half.
