Melton has been out since undergoing surgery on his left ACL last December, but a return does not appear to be far off. He has been practicing with the Warriors’ G League affiliate, and the team plans to continue incorporating him into practices as he nears a return. An update will be provided by the Warriors in 10 days. There’s no need to stash Melton in an IL+ slot, but he can be of value once allowed to play without any restrictions.

Horford’s role this year has been too limited and inconsistent for him to be rostered in standard leagues, but it certainly isn’t because he isn’t capable. Preserving Horford for the postseason is far more important than playing him a ton early on. This was only the third time this year that he surpassed 25 minutes, and it isn’t surprising that it led to one of his better performances. He should be left on the waiver wire, but he’ll make an impact later on this year for the Warriors.

Butler’s previous season-high of 31 points came in the season-opening win over the Lakers. Since then, this is the only time he has eclipsed the 30-point mark. Butler is certainly capable of pouring in the points on any given night, but he doesn’t always get the opportunity to. He’s having another strong year, and his availability to this point has made him one of the best values in fantasy basketball thus far.

Following his worst performance of the season, Curry was able to respond with a big night. He was able to pour in the points, but it wasn’t enough for Golden State to get the win. Curry’s assists have been down this year, but he was able to set a new season-high for dimes in this game. Fantasy managers will be happy with this well-rounded performance from Steph, even if the Warriors’ three-game win streak came to an end. Curry noted after the game that he tweaked his ankle against the Spurs on Friday and tweaked it again in this game. This was the first of a back-to-back, so don’t be surprised if Curry doesn’t play against the Heat on Wednesday.

Dort returned from a four-game absence with a shoulder injury on Saturday against the Hornets, but had just three points in 22 minutes. The 26-year-old shooting guard got another start and had more of an impact on Monday against the Pelicans. Dort filled up the stat sheet and had 17 points and four three-pointers.

Holmgren had at least 25 points for the second consecutive games and fourth time in his last five games. The 23-year-old center was excellent, shooting 10-of-14 from the field and making three three-pointers.

SGA only took nine shots in the blowout win. The 27-year-old point guard had no problem finding the open man with eight assists. He also got to the free throw at will and made all 10 of his free throw attempts. Gilgeous-Alexander was efficient as usual, but only 28 minutes as the Thunder weren’t pushed much against the Pelicans. This is starting to become a theme for SGA this season as the Thunder remain a top team with lots of blowout wins.

Podziemski has reached double figures in three of the four games he’s played since returning to a reserve role in a November 11 loss to the Thunder. Sunday’s performance was his best, and the third-year guard has provided seventh-round value in nine-cat formats over the past week. Jonathan Kuminga’s absence has opened up additional opportunities for Podziemski, and he’s taken advantage. While he doesn’t need to start to provide solid fantasy value, Podz’s ceiling is lower when coming off the bench and the Warriors are whole.

Green didn’t have the most efficient night, shooting poorly from the field and committing five turnovers. While he provided decent value in the rebound and assist categories, his inefficiency has significantly damaged the Warriors forward’s fantasy value. Through 14 games, Green is shooting 37.3 percent from the field and 58.5 percent from the foul line and averaging 3.2 turnovers per game. Add in the limited offensive output, and he may not be worth the risk in 12-team leagues, especially with the Warriors entering a three-game week.

Golden State scored 44 points in the first quarter and maintained control for most of the night, handling the struggling Pelicans with relative ease. Butler was one of two starters to play more than 30 minutes on Sunday, and all that his final stat line lacked was a blocked shot. The six turnovers were a negative, but Butler has been excellent more often than not thus far. As long as he’s available, fantasy managers should continue to receive value that exceeds Butler’s Yahoo! ADP of 50. The Warriors play three games during Week 5.

On a night when Stephen Curry (9/5/3/0/1 with one three-pointer) shot 2-of-11 from the field, Moody came through with a huge night. And he didn’t take long to get going, hitting seven three-pointers in the first quarter. He’s the third player in franchise history to hit at least seven threes in a quarter, joining Curry and Klay Thompson. Moody, who has started the last three games in place of the injured Jonathan Kuminga, finished with a career-high point total and solid value in the defensive categories. Moody’s fantasy value in the short term depends on Kuminga’s availability, and the Warriors open Week 5 with a Tuesday/Wednesday road back-to-back against the Magic and Heat.

The main limitation for Holmgren this season has been the amount of blowout wins, but he’s been really good in his minutes.
