Robinson sat out on Monday, which was the second night of a back-to-back. He’ll be back to occupying his typical reserve role against Utah, which means Ariel Hukporti will lose out on minutes after logging 12 as the backup against the Clippers.

Hart finished Monday’s defeat with his 13th double-double of the season and third since the All-Star break. Due to decreased production across multiple categories, his fantasy value has dipped significantly since the All-Star break. The Knicks end their road trip with games against the Jazz and Pacers, two matchups that may serve Hart well. Fantasy managers will certainly hope that’s the case, as his value has been trending in the wrong direction, even with Monday’s double-double.

After dropping 34 points in the Knicks’ blowout of the Nuggets to open their five-game road trip, Anunoby struggled against the Lakers on Sunday. The wing rebounded nicely on Monday, even if it did not result in a Knicks’ victory. Since the All-Star break, Anunoby has provided top-50 value in nine-cat formats. While his season-long value has been better than that, his consistency has made OG a player whom fantasy managers have been able to rely on all season long.

Brunson was one of the few Knicks to shoot the ball well against the Clippers, making just over half of his attempts on the night. That was a positive development for fantasy managers, as the Knicks’ captain opened March shooting 37.5 percent from the field in his first five games of the month. Having lost both of their games in Los Angeles County, the Knicks dropped to 0-4 in California this season. The Knicks play three more games in Week 20, starting with the Jazz on Wednesday.

Including Towns, four players were responsible for 97 of the Knicks’ 118 points. Add in 20 turnovers, and it’s nearly impossible to win a game against a team that has postseason ambitions like the Clippers. The good news for fantasy managers was that Towns, who has played well over the past month, recorded a robust stat line that only lacked a steal. With the Knicks ending their road trip with games against the Jazz and Pacers, those could be big nights for KAT.

Appearing in a game for the first time since January 21, Mitchell looked far from rusty in the first half of Monday’s victory. Shooting 7-of-12 from the field, the second-year guard scored 15 points before halftime. Mitchell ultimately played 29 minutes, with Cason Wallace (four points, two rebounds, one assist and one block in 17 minutes) taking the most significant hit in terms of playing time. Before his injuries, Mitchell was productive enough to become a must-roster player in deep leagues. In the aftermath of Monday’s performance, his rostership is likely to increase.

As a general rule, JayWill should be considered as a streaming option on nights when Chet Holmgren or Isaiah Hartenstein don’t play. On nights when both are out, Williams is a must-roster player. He was outstanding against the Nuggets, shooting 7-of-11 from beyond the arc. The seven triples were a career-high for the former second-round pick, and fantasy managers also benefited from the rebounds, assists and blocked shots. Oklahoma City doesn’t play again until Thursday, which may be enough time to get Holmgren and Hartenstein back in the lineup. If not, do not hesitate to pick up Williams.

A thriller in Oklahoma City went down to the wire, with the reigning Most Valuable Player getting the last laugh. Gilgeous-Alexander hit three-pointers on the Thunder’s final two possessions, the last giving the reigning champs the 129-126 victory. And he made some history, moving into a tie with Wilt Chamberlain for the most consecutive games with at least 20 points, 126. Add in the career-high 15 assists and nine rebounds, and Monday was another great night for SGA and those who have him on their fantasy rosters.

Towns had only one game with at least 20 points in his last six games entering play Sunday. While the 30-year-old center has been playing well recently, his scoring has lagged behind somewhat. That wasn’t the case on Sunday as he poured in 25 points on 17 attempts. Towns has provided third-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Knicks have four games coming up in Week 20, starting with a matchup against the Clippers on Monday.

Williams moved into the starting lineup on Saturday, as a calf injury sidelined Isaiah Hartenstein. JayWill shot 3-of-6 from beyond the arc and provided excellent value in the rebound and assist categories while playing 32 minutes. His productivity is no surprise to experienced fantasy managers, as Williams has put up some big lines in the past when allowed to start. The Thunder’s three-game Week 20 does not include a back-to-back, so Williams’ value could be limited if Hartenstein returns.

The Thunder did not have Chet Holmgren or Isaiah Hartenstein for Saturday’s game, with the former’s absence opening a spot in the starting lineup for Joe. While he did not provide any defensive stats, the percentages were solid for the Thunder wing. His fantasy value moving forward depends on the availability of players ahead of him in the rotation, but Joe is worth streaming on nights when he’s allowed to start.

Gilgeous-Alexander is one step closer, having scored at least 20 points in 125 consecutive games. That’s one away from Wilt Chamberlain’s NBA record, and SGA can match the all-time great on Monday against the Nuggets. As for his performance against the Warriors, Gilgeous-Alexander didn’t have the best night shooting from the field, but a near-perfect night at the foul line boosted the points tally. Monday’s matchup with the Nuggets is the first of three games for the Thunder in Week 20.

While Hart reached double figures in seven of the Knicks’ first games out of the All-Star break, he shot 43.2 percent from the field and 20.7 percent from three. The percentages weren’t an issue on Friday, with the Knicks’ wing shooting 2-of-4 from three and 6-of-8 from inside the arc.

Brunson was the one Knicks starter who could not get going offensively on Friday, opening the game 1-of-10 from the field. The nine points were the fewest in a game for the point guard since February 11, when Brunson scored eight in a blowout win over the 76ers. The good news for fantasy managers is that Brunson recorded 15 assists against the Nuggets. He’s now recorded 10 or more assists in three consecutive games, tied for the longest streak in his career.

Even if he isn’t putting up robust numbers in the points category, Towns has been playing his best basketball of the season recently.

Anunoby shot 6-of-11 from beyond the arc, and his complete stat line included five assists and four steals.

While he made four three-pointers on Wednesday, Anunoby needed 13 attempts to hit that number.

The Thunder’s ability to rotate multiple players onto Brunson throughout Wednesday’s game led to him having one of his poorer offensive efforts of the season. However, he recorded a season-high 15 assists, just over a month after dishing out 13 in a win over the Lakers. There aren’t many teams with the perimeter personnel Oklahoma City boasts, and Brunson doesn’t shoot the ball as poorly as he did on Wednesday very often. He’ll look to bounce back on Friday in Denver.

While his former team was losing to the Spurs by 40, McCain was making a big impact off the bench for his new squad. McCain has scored in double figures in eight of his 11 appearances for the Thunder, including three 20-point games.

He shot 5-of-6 from the field in the first quarter, scoring 14 points. The downside was that Anunoby’s numbers in the final three quarters were limited, and he did not record any defensive stats.

But Brunson still managed to get to his spots when it mattered most, shooting 4-of-7 from the field in the fourth quarter to help close out the win.

Towns didn’t do much scoring on Sunday, but his ability to use mismatches to his advantage was critical. The Spurs put a smaller defender on KAT for most of the game, having Victor Wembanyama guard Josh Hart to allow him to take on a “center field” role. Towns may not have punished the Spurs as a scorer as often as possible, but he did grab five offensive rebounds and help extend a few other positions through his hustle. While fantasy managers would have hoped for a more robust stat line from Towns, he deserves praise for his role in Saturday’s victory.
