Coulibaly finished Monday’s defeat with his fourth 20-point game of the season, and he was highly efficient in doing so. Shooting 45.2 percent from the field, the Wizards’ wing has provided 10th-round value in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. That may not be elite value, but it may get Coulibaly on the radar of more deep-league managers, especially if he can continue to play starters’ minutes more often than not.

The good news for fantasy managers was that Johnson reached double figures after totaling 10 points in his prior two appearances. The bad is that he only played 23 minutes, and the rookie has not exceeded 25 since returning from a sprained left ankle that sidelined him for six games in early February. Johnson is rostered in only eight percent of Yahoo! leagues, and with good reason, given his playing time.

Riley’s playing time and production in Monday’s defeat were encouraging. The rookie recorded his fourth 20-point stat line of the season, and he played a team-high 37 minutes. Riley has played at least 29 minutes in six of the Wizards’ eight games in March. While fantasy managers certainly hope that continues, Wizards head coach Brian Keefe’s handling of the rotation has been unpredictable at times.

Young suffered a right quad contusion early in the third quarter of Monday’s game and departed for the Wizards’ locker room shortly thereafter. He played 21 minutes, finishing with 21 points, two rebounds, five assists, one steal, one block and three three-pointers. With Bub Carrington getting ejected later in the third, the Wizards will turn to Sharife Cooper to run the show the rest of the way.

Carrington, who was due to play most of the second half with Trae Young having exited due to a quad contusion, was ejected with just over five minutes remaining in the third quarter. Whether he was talking to the Warriors bench or official Scott Foster after dropping Golden State’s Pat Spencer with a crossover was unclear, but Bub said enough to get thrown out. He finished with four points and one assist in 12 minutes.

Despite Tristan Vukčević being available for Monday’s game, he will come off the bench. Instead, Reese steps in as the starting center with Alex Sarr being ruled out. That is the lone change to the Wizards’ starting lineup.

While Williams has reached the point where he’s day-to-day, he is not ready to appear in games. Ajay Mitchell was the fifth starter for Sunday’s win over the Timberwolves; he or Cason Wallace stands to fill that role until Williams is healthy enough to play.

Sarr will sit out Monday’s game for hamstring injury management reasons, which opens the door for Tristan Vukčević to move into the starting lineup. While fantasy managers won’t expect to see him knock down six three-pointers as he did in Saturday’s loss to the 76ers, the opportunity makes Vukčević a player worth streaming.

On a day when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander missed 14 of his first 17 shot attempts, the Oklahoma City bench stepped up. Joe led three reserves in double figures with 20 points, and he was joined by Alex Caruso (17/2/1/3 with one three-pointer) and Jared McCain (15 points, one steal and five three-pointers) in lighting it up. Joe’s fantasy ceiling is limited, even with Jalen Williams out, but he’ll have his opportunities to contribute. And Sunday’s game was a reminder of what he’s capable of when the threes are falling.

While he failed to score in his 21 minutes on the floor, Hartenstein still provided value in multiple categories. Sunday’s game was his 16th of the season with at least ten rebounds, and fantasy managers also benefited from the assists and blocks. Oklahoma City’s three-game Week 21 includes a back-to-back, meaning that Hartenstein could be limited to two appearances.

There may have been some concern regarding Gilgeous-Alexander’s streak of 127 consecutive games with at least 20 points, as he started Sunday’s game shooting 3-of-17 from the field. However, the reigning MVP was able to get going late, extending his streak to a league record 128 games. Gilgeous-Alexander will look to extend his streak to 129 on Tuesday against the Magic.

With reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander struggling for most of Sunday’s game, it was up to the Thunder’s “supporting cast” to pick up the slack. Holmgren led the way with 21 points as part of a complete stat line. Oklahoma City’s three-game Week 21 begins with a back-to-back, making it possible that fantasy managers can only count on Holmgren for two games. Since the All-Star break, the 7-foot-1 forward/center has been a second-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats.

Hartenstein is back in the Thunder starting lineup after missing the last three games. However, it’s Cason Wallace who heads to the bench, with Mitchell remaining in the starting lineup. Managers who have rostered Wallace should hold onto him, as he will still play quality minutes.

Hartenstein is back after a three-game absence with a left calf contusion. His return is likely to push Ajay Mitchell to the bench, but the second-year guard should play enough to remain valuable in deep leagues.

Vukčević’s 22 points were a season-high, and he shot 6-of-7 from beyond the arc. The six three-pointers were a career-high for the Wizards’ backup center, who played 20 minutes to starter Alex Sarr’s 22. Sarr finished with four points (1-of-9 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, two steals, one block and one three-pointer. Moving forward, Vukčević will be most valuable on nights when Sarr doesn’t play, and there may be a few streaming opportunities in Week 21, given that Washington plays five games.

Young departed for the Wizards’ locker room late in the third quarter of Saturday’s game and did not return. Whether that was due to injury or simply the play for the point guard is unknown. However, Young’s playing time has been restricted since making his Wizards’ debut, and there’s no reason for the team to change that since they’ve been eliminated from postseason contention. Washington plays five games in Week 21, but Young will likely be available for three at the very most. Bub Carrington (two points, three rebounds, eight assists and one block in 22 minutes) will have added value on the nights that Young sits.

Hartenstein has missed Oklahoma City’s last three games with a left calf contusion, which is not the one that he strained in December. If the Thunder center can play on Sunday, he’ll likely push Ajay Mitchell to the bench.

Cooper was initially listed as questionable for Saturday’s game against the Celtics with a sprained ankle, but has since been listed as available. He’s not worth rostering in most fantasy leagues, though, with Trae Young and Bub Carrington ahead of him on the depth chart.
