Moody enters the All-Star break having scored at least 15 points in three consecutive games. However, the lackluster production outside of points, three-pointers and rebounds limits his fantasy ceiling. Over the past two weeks, Moody has been a 12th-round player in eight-cat formats. Because the Warriors have been without Stephen Curry, there’s been more room for Moody to score. However, with Curry expected back immediately after the All-Star break, Moody’s rostership (18 percent, Yahoo!) may decrease.

Melton’s stat line on Wednesday was evidence of why he can be valuable to fantasy managers, even with the lack of defensive stats. The Warriors guard made five of his six three-point attempts and provided solid value in the rebounds and assist categories as well. Over the past two weeks, Melton has provided 10th-round value in eight-cat formats. Stephen Curry’s expected return after the All-Star break should not do much, if any, harm to Melton’s prospects in category leagues.

Green put forth one of his better performances this season on Wednesday, finishing two assists shy of a triple-double. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, nights like Wednesday have not been the norm for the veteran forward, and that isn’t considering the points category. Entering the season with an ADP of 100, Green heads into the All-Star break ranked just inside the top-150 in eight-cat formats. Hopefully, getting Stephen Curry and Kristaps Porziņǵis into the rotation after the break will enhance Green’s value by extension.

Brooks was the leading scorer in an ugly loss for Phoenix, and he was able to have a productive night. However, he also picked up his 16th technical foul of the season. Unless it is rescinded, he will serve a one-game suspension against the Spurs on Feb. 19 and could miss more games if he continues to pick up technicals. Brooks has been incredible this season and has been red-hot on offense lately. He has scored at least 20 points in four straight games and in nine of his last 10 games.

Richard was also questionable ahead of Monday’s win over the Grizzlies, a game in which he would play 15 minutes. However, the rookie is not healthy enough to play on Wednesday, freeing up minutes on the back end of the Warriors’ rotation. Richard’s absence won’t affect fantasy basketball.

Green is listed as questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Thunder for right hamstring injury management reasons. The 24-year-old shooting guard has only been playing around 20 minutes per game, so if he’s ruled out his absence won’t have a major impact on the Suns’ rotation.

Coffey made his Suns’ debut on Tuesday, playing 13 minutes off the bench. The production wasn’t enough to make him a player worth considering in fantasy leagues, especially with Grayson Allen (ankle) out. Once Allen returns, it’s fair to question if Coffey will play consistent rotation minutes.

The Suns received solid contributions from both of their centers on Tuesday. Despite coming off the bench, Ighodaro recorded his first double-double of the season in 23 minutes. Meanwhile, starting center Mark Williams logged 25 minutes and accounted for 13 points, eight rebounds and one assist. Tuesday’s effort doesn’t make Ighodaro someone worth rostering in most redraft leagues, but he should be on dynasty league rosters.

Booker has played 32 minutes in the two games he’s appeared in since returning from a sprained ankle. While the points output on Tuesday was modest, fantasy managers can still use rebounds, assists, steals, and three-pointers. This is the first back-to-back for Booker since his injury, so fantasy managers should consider him questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Thunder. That also goes for Jalen Green (12/1/4 with two three-pointers), who played 20 minutes off the bench on Tuesday.

Brooks has scored at least 23 points in three straight and eight of his last nine games. While the steals and blocks production has been limited during this stretch, the Suns’ wing has provided sixth-round value in eight-cat formats. While Brooks’ fantasy value for the season remains outside the top-100, he’s been more impactful than many fantasy managers expected him to be before the season began. The Suns end the pre-break portion of their schedule on Wednesday against the Thunder.

According to Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, the team hopes Porziņǵis will make his debut in their first game out of the All-Star break, on February 19 against the Celtics. And once he’s cleared to play, he will do so in short stints. With Jimmy Butler (knee) done for the season, a healthy Porziņǵis can give the Warriors a needed boost on both ends of the floor.

Melton suffered a gluteal contusion during Monday’s win over the Grizzlies. He recently moved into the starting lineup, so the Warriors would have a gap to account for if he can’t play. Brandin Podziemski could return to the starting lineup in that scenario, which would raise his fantasy ceiling.

While Horford came off the bench, he was in the game when the Warriors rallied to pick up the victory. After corralling his own missed shot, Horford’s assist to Gui Santos with 19.4 seconds remaining while sitting on the court capped a game-ending 19-5 run. Due to the minutes and production, Horford’s fantasy value has remained low. But his “real” value has helped keep the Warriors afloat on a few occasions, including Monday night.

While Monday’s game wasn’t the first time that the Spencer brothers have matched up this season, Pat figured far more prominently in the Warriors’ rotation on Monday than he did on October 27. Making a third consecutive start, the Warriors guard provided excellent value in points, assists and steals. Over the past week, Spencer has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats according to Basketball Monster. And with Stephen Curry (knee) ruled out for Wednesday’s game against the Spurs, Spencer is worth the streaming risk in deep leagues.

After totaling 20 points in his prior three appearances, Green shot the ball well and reached double figures on Monday. The last time he reached double figures, a January 30 loss to the Pistons, was also the last time the veteran forward made four three-pointers in a game. The lone negative for Green managers on Monday was the turnover count, as he recorded seven, one shy of his season high. Shooting 38.1 percent from the field, he’s been ranked outside the top-150 over the past two weeks.

While he wasn’t much of a factor in the Warriors’ 19-5 run to end Monday’s comeback victory, Podziemski was one of seven to reach double figures. Despite Stephen Curry’s absence with a knee injury, Podz has come off the bench in the last three games. The change to the lineup lowers Podziemski’s fantasy ceiling, but he remains a worthwhile hold in deeper leagues. The Warriors host the Spurs on Wednesday in their final game before the All-Star break.

Before Saturday’s loss to the Lakers, Kerr said that his star guard was unlikely to play in Monday’s game against the Grizzlies. In addition to sitting out Monday’s contest, Curry will miss Wednesday’s matchup with the Spurs and the February 15 All-Star Game in Inglewood, California. Gui Santos has played well since moving into the starting lineup, and he’s worth streaming in deep leagues until Curry returns.

Booker hadn’t played since spraining his ankle in a January 23 loss to the Hawks. The 29-year-old managed to scored 21 points, but parts of his game were understandably rusty. Booker was 1-of-7 from behind the three-point line, but was otherwise 4-of-5 from the field. Dillon Brooks led the team in field goal attempts with 23, but expect Booker to be more aggressive as he gets re-acclimated to playing again.

Brooks has now had at least 22 points in seven of his last eight games. The 30-year-old shooting guard is on one of the best scoring runs of his career with the Suns. Even with Devin Booker back now, Grayson Allen was recently injured and Jalen Green has yet to play starter-level minutes for the Suns. With a seemingly stable role, Brooks should maintain his fantasy value. He’s provided third-round per game value over the last two weeks, according to Basketball Monster. The Suns have two games in Week 17, starting with a matchup with the Mavericks on Tuesday.

Limited to 13 minutes in Thursday’s win over the Suns due to an illness, Podziemski played 33 off the bench on Saturday. The final stat line was solid, but most encouraging was the playing time. Whether he starts or comes off the bench, minutes should not be an issue for Podziemski as long as he’s healthy. So, fantasy managers who have rostered him for this long should continue to do so.

On the same day that he was upgraded to a standard contract, Spencer produced another solid effort for the Warriors. Rostered in three percent of Yahoo! leagues, the Warriors’ guard has provided top-50 per-game value over the past week, according to Basketball Monster.

Santos extended his career-best run of double-figure scoring efforts to six straight on Saturday, as he continues to offer solid production. He’s been the starting lineup for the last three, filling the void left by Stephen Curry (knee).

Limited to six points in Thursday’s comeback win over the Suns, Moody was much better on Saturday. The 25 points were the most in a game for him since January 26, when he scored 26 in a win over the Jazz. While inconsistency can be an issue for Moody, he’s worth rostering in the short term as the Warriors await Stephen Curry’s return. The Warriors play two of their four Week 17 games before the All-Star break, and Curry may miss both, thus enhancing Moody’s fantasy value.

With Devin Booker and Jalen Green out, and the Suns losing Grayson Allen during the fourth quarter, Brooks is doing his best to shoulder even more of the offensive workload.

And Spencer was a key contributor, hitting six of the Warriors’ 20 three-pointers and leading five double-digit scorers with a career-high 20 points. The two-way player was inserted into the starting lineup for Thursday’s game, and he may have played well enough to hold onto that role until Stephen Curry (knee) returns. With Brandin Podziemski being limited to 13 minutes because of an unspecified injury — he did return during the third quarter — Spencer’s role may take on added importance in Saturday’s game against the Lakers.
