With Jalen Green (hamstring) making his season debut, Dunn came off the bench for the first time this season. However, that didn’t stop him from producing a solid line. His upside will be limited as a reserve, and the eventual return of Dillon Brooks will only limit him even more. Grayson Allen scored 18 points as a starter, and it is unlikely that he’ll be moved to the bench if he continues to play this well.

Rostered in 12 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Dunn is providing top-100 value in nine-cat formats. While he hasn’t done much scoring and is shooting 66.7 percent from the foul line, the consistently full stat lines show that he’s more valuable than some may give him credit for. Dunn’s fantasy value may slip once Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks return from their respective injuries, but he’ll remain in the starting lineup, which should give him a relatively high floor.

Dunn was initially probable for Tuesday’s game, so his status upgrade was unsurprising. Livers is back after missing Sunday’s win over the Spurs with a right hip contusion. Dunn has been a fixture in the starting lineup and will retain that role, while Livers provides additional depth off the bench. There’s no need to roster Livers in fantasy leagues.

Coming off his two best offensive performances of the season, Dunn is expected to be available once again despite a knee contusion. He should occupy his typical spot in the starting lineup, where he has been a top-100 player this season.

One game removed from reaching double figures for the first time, Dunn established a new season-high point total on Sunday. The second-year forward’s fantasy ceiling is limited due to his offensive production, but he’s still offering top-100 value in nine-cat formats. The eventual returns of Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks don’t bode well for Dunn’s rest-of-season ceiling, but the floor should remain relatively high.

After scoring nine points or less in Phoenix’s first five games, Dunn cracked double figures on Friday. He also matched his career-high in rebounds, notching his fourth career double-double. Dunn is lurking just outside the top-100 in nine-cat formats, but the limited scoring and low free-throw percentage lower his ceiling. That said, he’s averaging nearly two combined steals and blocks per game, representing decent value for the second-year wing.

Dunn was back in the Suns’ lineup after sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Hawks. Unfortunately for Phoenix, his return did not impact the “bottom line,” as the Suns were routed for a second straight night. Dunn was the lone player to have a good night offensively and was also solid defensively. While the Suns will likely head into training camp with a surplus of wings, Dunn’s defensive ability will get him onto the court. How much he plays will likely depend on the progress he’s able to make as a scorer.

Dunn finished his rookie season with a double-double and a complete stat line on Sunday. While his season-long fantasy value was low, ranking outside the top-300 in eight- and nine-cat formats, Dunn did enough to earn consistent rotation minutes. He would move into the starting lineup for good in mid-March, providing top-150 value in nine-cat formats over the season’s final month. Like many other Suns, projecting Dunn’s fantasy value next season is difficult, as the roster should look far different.

Dunn had the best night of his rookie campaign in the Suns’ final home game of the season. He surpassed 20 points for the first time, and the double-double was his second. While Phoenix’s elimination from playoff contention may result in the veterans not playing as much, or at all, that isn’t a concern for Dunn. Fantasy managers in active leagues should ensure he isn’t sitting on the waiver wire ahead of Sunday’s finale against the Kings.

Dunn has started Phoenix’s last three games, scoring in double figures in each. The rookie has been more aggressive offensively, and the defensive production has also been there. While Dunn did not record a steal on Monday after racking up seven in games against the Kings and Lakers, he did block two shots in the 40-point victory. His season-long fantasy value remains low, but Dunn has been a top-100 player over the past week. Rostered in two percent of Yahoo! leagues, he won’t be too hard to find for managers needing defensive production.

Having fallen in the wing pecking order since late January, Dunn was able to start on Friday. And the rookie had a good night, racking up 16 points and four steals in 33 minutes. Dunn didn’t have a great night shooting the basketball, but the overall production was solid. Royce O’Neale was moved to the bench, finishing Friday’s win with nine points, three rebounds, one assist, two steals and three three-pointers in 21 minutes. While Dunn could be worth a look if he retains his place in the starting lineup, that isn’t guaranteed. And with the Suns only playing three games during Week 20, the schedule doesn’t work in his favor.

Suns coach Mike Budenholzer has made a change to his starting lineup, as Dunn replaces the struggling Royce O’Neale. While the rookie offers limited offensive value, he can be impactful as a defender. O’Neale will remain in the rotation, but his fantasy value takes a hit when used in a reserve role.
