In addition to shooting the ball well in Cleveland, the second-year wing racked up fantasy value with his steals. He has recorded at least one steal in 13 straight games, continuing to establish himself as one of the NBA’s better defenders. Since the All-Star break, Camara has provided top-15 value in eight-cat formats. With Portland playing four games during Week 18, he should be rostered in more than 49 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

While he didn’t shoot the ball efficiently, Simons has now scored 25 points or more in three of his last five outings. Despite shooting 40.4 percent from the field, the Blazers guard has been a top 100 player in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. The lingering question for Simons managers: will there come a point when the Blazers decide to shut him down? The door isn’t completely closed on the final play-in spot in the West, but Sunday’s defeat dropped Portland to five games behind Dallas in the loss column.

Avdija was outstanding in Cleveland, shooting over 50 percent from the field and recording his first career triple-double. While he has only been a 10th-round player in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break, the Blazers wing is a must-roster player at this stage. Avdija has an even higher ceiling when the Blazers are shorthanded, as they were on Sunday when they played without Jerami Grant. Portland plays four games during Week 18, starting with the 76ers on Monday.

While Curry was sidelined with a back injury for Saturday’s loss to the Wizards, Moore has missed the Hornets’ last two games with a concussion. Curry’s return would be more impactful in fantasy basketball, as Damion Baugh, who played 20 minutes on Saturday, likely would experience a decrease in playing time.

Nurkic will be available after missing Saturday’s loss to the Wizards due to illness. His return means Moussa Diabate will likely fall out of the rotation. Mark Williams remains the starting center and should easily play 30-plus minutes.

Bridges has not missed a game since January 24, but he’s probable for Monday night with an illness. Tidjane Salaun will likely play more minutes, potentially as a starter, if Bridges cannot play. However, the probable tag suggests Miles will be available. Salaun hasn’t reached the point where he should be rostered in fantasy leagues, but the rookie should have added value as the season winds down.

Deni Avdija will replace Kris Murray in the starting lineup against Cleveland. The rest of Portland’s starters will remain the same from their previous game. Avdija is back after a quad injury that caused him to miss Friday’s game against the Nets. He enjoyed a scoring boost at the end of February and could start off March strong.

With the drama of the failed trade behind him, Williams has put together two consecutive fantastic stat lines. This was Williams’ second straight 20-point double-double and his seventh of the season. The defensive production and sky high field goal percentage were an added bonus, though not uncommon from Williams this season. Availability will continue to limit Williams, but he has provided top-50 value in nine-cat leagues over the past two weeks, and he should continue to dominate when he’s on the floor.

Green did a little bit of everything in this game, though it seemed like it was going to be a much bigger performance than it ended up being. Green entered halftime with 13 points, but Charlotte didn’t turn to him much after the break. Green is a solid starter for the Hornets, but he hasn’t been much of a contributor in fantasy basketball. Managers shouldn’t rush to the waiver wire after a performance like this since he hasn’t been able to produce in the box score consistently this season.

After missing Charlotte’s last two games, Ball was able to log 32 minutes in Saturday’s loss. He has been available for four of their seven games since the All-Star break, and managers should expect him to continue to rotate in and out of the lineup. Ball was better as a scorer than he was in his last two appearances after he scored a totaled 18 points while making just four of his 23 shot attempts in those two games. However, he struggled as a playmaker on Saturday and had twice as many turnovers as assists.

Ball and Salaun were initially questionable for Saturday’s game. While the former is back after a one-game absence, the latter missed the final two games of Charlotte’s road trip. Ball’s return coincides with KJ Simpson being sent to the G League, so Elfrid Payton will take on the backup point guard responsibilities. Salaun will be part of the rotation, but coming off the bench limits his fantasy value.

Both wings missed Friday’s game against Brooklyn, which allowed Kris Murray and Shaedon Sharpe to slide into the starting lineup. If Avdija and Grant remain out, both Murray and Sharpe should start again, with Sharpe as the better streaming option.

Sunday’s game will be the fifth straight that Williams has missed with a sprained left knee. With Deandre Ayton (calf) also out, the Trail Blazers will again rely on Donovan Clingan and Jabari Walker to fill the void. While Clingan has been the more popular pickup in fantasy leagues, Walker can provide deep-league value off the bench.

Curry played through a back injury Thursday after he was initially listed as probable. The 34-year-old point guard appears to be in a much more precarious position Saturday as he’s popped up on the injury report as doubtful merely hours before game-time. It certainly seems like Curry is destined to miss the matchup with the Wizards.

Camara continues to produce for the Trail Blazers, who needed it Friday without Jerami Grant and Deni Avdija in the starting lineup. The 24-year-old small forward poured in 19 points and four 3-pointers. Camara has provided third-round fantasy value over the past month and is still available in far too many leagues.

Sharpe entered the starting lineup Friday with Jerami Grant and Deni Avdija both out. The 21-year-old shooting guard has consistently stepped up his scoring output when the Trail Blazers are missing starters this year and it was the same story against the Nets. Sharpe had 25 points on 14 shots and made four 3-pointers. He can certainly provide points and threes when given the opportunity.

Due to injury, Portland is without Deni Avdija and Jerami Grant for Friday’s game. Sharpe and Murray have filled the two voids in the starting lineup, with the latter boasting a significantly higher fantasy ceiling. Murray may be most valuable during the “silly season,” but he isn’t a must-stream player in this particular spot.

Avdija injured his quad Wednesday against Washington while Jerami Grant hasn’t missed a game in a little over two weeks. Kris Murray and Shaedon Sharpe stand as the biggest beneficiaries with Portland down two of its forwards. Sharpe has had some big scoring games this year when the Trail Blazers are missing key players.

Moore remains in the league’s concussion protocol and will miss a second straight game. His absence does not significantly impact fantasy basketball, but it frees up additional minutes for Damion Baugh. Baugh isn’t worth adding in most leagues, but he may have added value during the “silly season.”

Neither Nurkic nor Salaun appeared in Charlotte’s last two games, most recently sitting out Thursday’s loss to the Mavericks. They’ll be backups if allowed to play against the Wizards, limiting their fantasy ceilings. Salaun may have added value during the “silly season,” especially if the Hornets prioritize getting their lottery pick more minutes.

After a rough performance in Tuesday’s blowout loss to Golden State, Bridges was able to get back on track on Thursday, though it wasn’t enough to end Charlotte’s losing streak. Bridges has taken on more responsibility on offense with LaMelo Ball out of the lineup recently, and while that doesn’t always allow him to have an efficient night, the volume for production is still there. He has provided third-round value in nine-cat leagues over the past two weeks, which is something he’ll look to continue against the Wizards on Saturday to wrap up the week.

After being listed as inactive for five straight games, Simpson has started Charlotte’s last two with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined. During this two game stretch, Simpson has averaged 13.5 points, five rebounds, 3.5 assists, two steals and one three-pointer per game. If Ball remains out for Charlotte’s matchup with Washington on Saturday, Simpson should be in line for another start. With Charlotte at the bottom of the standings, managers should expect to see Simpson on the floor often as the season winds down, and he should hold plenty of value if he remains in the starting lineup.

Williams’ last few games have been subpar, but on Thursday, he got back to playing how he was before the rescinded trade to the Lakers. This was the first time this season that Williams had at least 25 points and 15 rebounds in the same game, though this was his sixth 20-point double-double of the season. Availability will continue to be the main limitation for Williams in fantasy basketball, but Charlotte doesn’t have another back-to-back until next Friday and Saturday, so he should be available for their final game of this week on Saturday against Washington.

Grant shot the ball poorly again on Wednesday, and he’s only made 27.5 percent of his attempts over the past two weeks. However, the rebound production has increased in recent games. During that same two-week stretch, the veteran forward averages 5.3 rebounds per game, nearly two more than his mark for the season (3.5). However, the combination of decreased scoring and limited output in the other fantasy-relevant categories makes Grant a problematic player to hold onto in 10-team formats, even though he remains rostered in 74 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

After scoring eight points in his first game out of the All-Star break, Simons tallied 25 and 28 in wins over the Hornets and Jazz. He wasn’t as productive against the Wizards, but there was some value in the rebound, assist and steal numbers. Over the past two weeks, Simons has been a top 100 player in eight-cat formats, which aligns with his season-long value. Unless there’s a significant spike in production in one of the categories where Simons doesn’t traditionally provide consistent value (rebounds or field goal percentage), his ceiling will be limited.

Wednesday’s game was the best of the season for Sharpe in terms of production and highlights. Shaedon notched a season-high point total (36) and put up that number efficiently. He shot 50 percent from the field and 70 percent from the foul line and was also effective in the rebound and assist categories. Add in arguably the best in-game dunk in the NBA this season, and this was an excellent night for Sharpe, who scored 18 points in each half. Another note is the left quad injury that sidelined Deni Avdija before halftime. Sharpe started the third quarter, which may indicate his place within the rotation if Avdija misses time.

Avdija injured his left quad during the first quarter of Wednesday’s game, with the Trail Blazers announcing early in the third that he would not return. Shaedon Sharpe started the second half in Avdija’s place and appears to be the replacement if Deni misses time. Also in line for an increase in playing would be Scoot Henderson.

Avdija took a hit to his left quad during the first quarter of Wednesday’s game. While he remained in the game then, the Blazers forward eventually headed back to the locker room for further examination. Avdija is now questionable to return, and Kris Murray has entered the rotation. If Avdija misses time, Murray or Scoot Henderson will likely replace him in the starting lineup, with the latter offering a much higher fantasy ceiling.

Simpson moved into the starting lineup Tuesday with LaMelo Ball (ankle) out again. The 22-year-old point guard has played at least 30 minutes in three straight games now. Simpson hasn’t been particularly effective in any of those games and Charlotte has lost all three outings. It doesn’t appear that he’s much of a fantasy asset at the moment, but he’s certainly getting a bunch of minutes lately.
