O’Neale, who suffered a left biceps contusion, is a right-handed shooter. If he’s able to play, he’ll take on his usual role within the Suns’ starting lineup since Jalen Green (hamstring) remains out.

The Suns were in control throughout Sunday’s game, with O’Neale’s season-high points tally leading the way. He’s made at least four three-pointers in four consecutive games, which is precisely what deep-league managers hope for when rostering him. The Suns begin a three-game Week 13 on Tuesday in Miami, the first of a six-game road trip.

One reason to consider streaming O’Neale while the Suns are without Jalen Green is the three-point production, and he came through on Friday. The veteran forward hit four of his six attempts against the Knicks while also offering solid value in the rebound category. The lingering questions are: how much longer will Green, who began his ramp-up process, be sidelined by his hamstring injury? And, will the Suns continue to bring Grayson Allen (10/3/1/1 in 26 minutes) off the bench? The answers will have a direct impact on O’Neale’s fantasy value.

With Jalen Green (hamstring) back on the sideline, O’Neale made his seventh start of the season on Monday. The veteran wing had a good night, shooting 4-of-8 from beyond the arc and joining three other Suns starters in double figures. Due to the ability to provide three-pointers and steals, O’Neale is worth streaming until Green returns. And it may be a while before that happens, with Green set to undergo more testing this week.

The Suns are without Jalen Green, who aggravated his right hamstring injury during Saturday’s win over the Clippers. His absence means a return to the starting lineup for O’Neale, who was initially probable for Monday’s game due to illness. The veteran wing is worth rostering until Green returns, and it’s unknown how long he will be sidelined. Phoenix’s other four starters are unchanged.

O’Neale has made at least two three-pointers in each of the Suns’ five games, but he’s kicked things up a notch with Dillon Brooks (groin) unavailable. A starter in Phoenix’s last two games, the veteran forward is a combined 11-of-23 from beyond the arc. O’Neale’s performance on Wednesday was closer to the norm than his showing against the Jazz two nights prior, but he’s worth rostering until Brooks is cleared to return.

With Dillon Brooks sidelined with a groin injury, O’Neale was able to fill in as a starter and ended up turning in a productive line. O’Neale had been playing just under 30 minutes per game, which didn’t allow him much time to provide fantasy value. If Brooks remains out against the Grizzlies on Wednesday, O’Neale will hold value as a streamer, though the expectation shouldn’t be that he replicates this type of production.

O’Neale will start in place of Dillon Brooks, who will be sidelined for this game with a groin injury. With O’Neale bumping up, there will be more reserve forward minutes available for Rasheer Fleming and Nigel Hayes-Davis.

After missing Tuesday’s loss to the Bucks due to an illness, O’Neale returned on Friday and filled the void in the starting lineup left by Kevin Durant (ankle). The veteran wing did much of what’s expected, providing points, rebounds and three-pointers. While those who streamed O’Neale would have liked to get a steal or two out of him, the overall line was solid. He should get another start on Sunday when the Suns visit the Knicks.

O’Neale was a late addition to the Suns’ injury report for Tuesday’s game in Milwaukee, which he was ultimately ruled out of. His return to practice is a step in the right direction, as the Suns are already without Kevin Durant (ankle). O’Neale should be considered probable for Friday’s game in Boston, and he would have deep-league streaming value if allowed to play.

O’Neale’s appearance on the Suns’ injury report has the potential to be more impactful than many would expect. Kevin Durant (ankle) is out for at least one week, and with Bradley Beal (hamstring) also questionable, Phoenix may be light on wing options if O’Neale cannot play. Grayson Allen’s role would be of heightened importance, and he’s worth streaming if asked to play starters’ minutes.

O’Neale’s stat line wasn’t much to brag about, as the veteran wing only logged 15 minutes in the 148-109 defeat. However, with Kevin Durant exiting during the third quarter with a sprained left ankle, the Suns may need more from Royce during Week 22. Phoenix plays three games during Week 22, starting with the Bucks on Tuesday. And if Durant cannot play, O’Neale is his likely replacement in the starting lineup.

The Bol Bol experience is full of ups and downs, and Tuesday’s game was a down. He only played nine minutes as a starter, and O’Neale started the second half in his place. It wouldn’t be surprising if that change continued against Denver on Friday O’Neale’s fantasy upside is limited, but when he gets the chance to play big minutes, he can pour in the points from beyond the arc. Unfortunately, the Suns only have two more games this week, which will come on Friday and Sunday.
