After having his fantasy value take a significant hit in February, Barrett has gotten off to a good start in March. In six games, he’s averaged 23.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.7 steals and 2.0 three-pointers while shooting 59.1 percent from the field. That’s been a positive development for fantasy managers, especially those competing in category leagues. The Raptors host the Pistons on Sunday in their final game of Week 20.

In a game with three 30-point scorers, Ingram stole the show in the Raptors’ win over the Suns. Shooting 65 percent from the field, the slender forward scored 36 points, the most in a game for him since he dropped 37 in a November 24 win over the Cavaliers. While Ingram’s fantasy value has slipped slightly since the All-Star break, fantasy managers have nothing to worry about. The Raptors host the Pistons on Sunday in their final game of Week 20.

After recording 13 assists in Thursday’s win over the Nets, Cunningham was even better against the Grizzlies. The Pistons’ star point guard racked up 15 helpers on Friday, the second time in three games that he’s hit that number. Cunningham also brought more to the table as a scorer, getting into double figures after scoring eight points on Thursday. He’ll likely run into greater resistance when the Pistons visit the Raptors on Sunday.

Duren was dominant on Friday, an unsurprising development, given the Grizzlies’ lack of interior depth and size. The Pistons center made 80 percent of his shot attempts, and the double-double was his 33rd of the season and second in as many nights. For fantasy managers, they’ll get another game out of Duren as the Pistons visit the Raptors on Sunday.

Already without Ausar Thompson, the Pistons won’t have Tobias Harris for Friday’s game. Green moves into the starting lineup and is worthy of streaming consideration in deep leagues. Due to Thompson’s continued absence, Sasser remains in the starting lineup.

LeVert is back after a three-game absence, and he’ll take on his usual reserve role. With Ausar Thompson still out, there may be a few more minutes available than usual, but the Pistons expect to get their starting wing back soon. For Friday’s game, Kevin Huerter may lose out on a few minutes with LeVert available.

Seven Pistons finished Thursday’s 131-107 victory in double figures, with the reserves getting a little more playing time due to the game getting out of hand. However, Green didn’t need “garbage time” to have one of his most productive games of the season. The 17 points were the most in a game for him since hitting that number in a January 5 blowout of the Knicks, and he scored eight in the third quarter. Friday’s game against the Grizzlies may be another opportunity for Green to put up solid numbers against a shorthanded opponent.

The Pistons were able to pull away from the 76ers in the third quarter, despite Cunningham having a limited impact as a scorer. The All-Star guard attempted just six shots in the night, a season-low, with this being the second time he’s failed to put up at least ten. The good news is that Cunningham recorded 13 assists, the fifth time in the last six games that he’s dished out ten or more.

Duren found himself in early foul trouble on Thursday, and that, combined with the blowout, conspired to limit the Pistons’ center to 15 minutes. The good news for fantasy managers was that Duren recorded his first double-double in three games and 32nd of the season. With the Pistons hosting the Grizzlies on Friday, that’s another game where Duren’s playing time could be limited due to the competition.

Given how banged-up the 76ers were entering Thursday’s game, this was an opportunity for some of the Pistons’ unheralded options to put up better numbers than usual. Robinson’s 19 points were the most he’s scored in a game in over a month, and he last made five triples in a February 21 win over the Bulls. Robinson’s four assists were a nice bonus, but he remains a three-point specialist in fantasy leagues.

Barnes had a rough night at the office scoring-wise, as he shot 1-of-6 from three-point range. Category league managers can take solace in the rebounds, assists and steals. But this was a disappointing effort for someone who has ranked among the most valuable players in fantasy basketball this season, regardless of format. The Raptors return home for games on Friday and Sunday to complete Week 20.

Having totaled 22 points on 7-of-23 shooting in his prior two appearances, Quickley had an excellent night in New Orleans. The 25 points were the most in a game for him since February 28, when he dropped 27 in a win over the Wizards. Since the All-Star break, Quickley has been a top-50 player in eight-cat formats.

Playing in New Orleans for the first time since being traded to the Raptors, Ingram received a deserved ovation at the conclusion of his tribute video on Wednesday. While productive, he was unable to do enough to keep the Raptors from losing both games of their quick road trip. After scoring 14, 11 and nine points in his last three appearances, Ingram got back on track in New Orleans. That’s good news for fantasy managers, as the Pelicans return home for their final two games of Week 20.

Poeltl and Jackson-Davis are back after sitting out Tuesday’s loss to the Rockets. The former’s return means that Sandro Mamukelashvili, who logged 30 minutes in Houston, will head to the bench. Also, Jonathan Mogbo likely falls out of the rotation entirely. TJD is also likely to be on the outside looking in when it comes to playing time.

Barnes had his first game with at least 20 points since February 8 against the Pacers, a span of 11 games. The 24-year-old has leaned on his more varied skillset to provide fourth-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Raptors take on the Pelicans on Wednesday.

On the same night that Bam Adebayo scored 83 points, Duren had 26 points in 23 minutes in the blowout victory over the Nets. The 22-year-old center was 9-of-10 from the field and 8-of-10 from the free throw line. The Pistons cleared their bench with the game out of reach in the second half, but Duren still had a great game. He’s provided third-round per game value over the last two weeks.

Coming off a four-game losing streak that included an embarrassing home loss to the Nets with Cunningham out of the lineup, the Pistons were highly motivated for Tuesday’s game against the Nets.

The Raptors’ bench, Mamukelashvili included, has struggled since the All-Star break. While his stat lines over the past two games have not been elite, Mamu reaching double figures in both is a step in the right direction.

After totaling 18 points and 14 rebounds in the Raptors’ first two games of Week 19, Poeltl finished the week with one of his best efforts since the All-Star break. The 7-footer has reached double figures in points three times since the break, with Sunday’s double-double being his second. Also of note: Poeltl played 30 minutes, and he’s logged 29 or more in three straight games for the first time this season. As long as his back doesn’t flare up, he can provide solid fantasy value in points, rebounds and field-goal percentage.

Barnes finished Sunday’s 30-point victory with a complete stat line, recording those numbers efficiently. In addition to shooting 50 percent from the field, the All-Satr forward committed just one turnover in 35 minutes.

Barrett has been on a nice run recently, scoring at least 20 points in four straight and five of his last six games.

With no Cade Cunningham (quad) or Ausar Thompson (ankle), the Pistons called on Jenkins and Marcus Sasser to start against the Nets. The former had an opportunity to tie the game in the Pistons’ penultimate possession, but his shot was short of the mark. Jenkins did record nine assists and two steals, so those who streamed him received solid value in those categories. As for Sasser, he accounted for eight points, three rebounds, four assists, five steals and two three-pointers. The Pistons are likely to be without Thompson for multiple games, and Cunningham’s status for Sunday’s game against the Heat remains undetermined. As a result, Jenkins and Sasser could be in line for another start.
