O’Neale came off the bench on Friday, and his role may have become more important due to Grayson Allen’s hamstring injury. Allen, who went down during the second quarter, is expected to undergo imaging on Saturday to determine the severity of the injury. If he has to miss time, O’Neale’s role takes on added importance because of what he can bring to the table as a three-point shooter and defender.

Following a three-game absence with left knee soreness, O’Neale was back in the lineup for this game. He was on fire from deep and was still able to make contributions on defense. Stretching back to before his absence, he has hit at least two triples in six straight games. He’ll continue to start with Dillon Brooks (hand) sidelined, making him worth streaming.

O’Neale will be back following a three-game absence. He will immediately return to the starting unit, which will push Jordan Goodwin back to the bench after a few productive starts.

Having missed the Suns’ last three games, O’Neale is on track to return on Tuesday. If so, Jordan Goodwin is likely headed to the bench, eliminating most of his streaming value.

Initially questionable for Sunday’s game, O’Neale will miss a third straight with a sore left knee. Jordan Goodwin was the replacement in the lineup for the last two, but the production has been inconsistent. He’s only worth streaming for managers in dire need of an active player for the final game of Week 21.

O’Neale did not play in Saturday’s loss to the Bucks, the second straight game that he’s missed. Jordan Goodwin moved into the starting lineup and was more productive against Milwaukee than he was in Thursday’s loss to the Spurs. He’ll remain in the lineup if O’Neale can’t play against Toronto.

O’Neale did not play in Thursday’s loss to the Spurs, and he appears likely to miss another game on Saturday. Jordan Goodwin moved into the starting lineup on Thursday but struggled, shooting 2-of-9 from the field and scoring five points. He did record eight rebounds and three steals, so all wasn’t lost for those who streamed Goodwin.

O’Neale, who started and played 29 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Timberwolves, will not play against the Spurs. His absence frees up a spot in the starting lineup, with Ryan Dunn and Rasheer Fleming being potential replacements. Both should see their minutes increase out of necessity.

O’Neale is dealing with a sore left knee after starting Tuesday’s loss to the Timberwolves and playing 29 minutes. If he’s unable to play, Ryan Dunn and Rasheer Fleming are two players whose minutes may increase, especially if Grayson Allen (knee) is also out.

Rostered in 14 percent of Yahoo! leagues, O’Neale is effectively a specialist in fantasy basketball, being most valuable to managers needing three-pointers and steals. He came up big on Tuesday, especially during the third quarter. O’Neale scored 18 points in the frame, shooting 6-of-8 from beyond the arc, including a heave from half court to end the period. Add in the rebounds, assists and steals, and this was a good start to O’Neale’s Week 20. The Suns play two more games, a back-to-back on Thursday and Friday against the Pacers and Raptors.

O’Neale is not on the Suns’ updated injury report, so he’s good to go for Sunday night. He’ll continue to start while Phoenix awaits the return of the injured Dillon Brooks (hand).

O’Neale was also questionable ahead of Friday’s win over the Pelicans, a game in which he would start and play 31 minutes. If he’s unable to play on Sunday, Grayson Allen and Ryan Dunn are potential replacements in the starting lineup.

O’Neale went through his pregame routine without any issues, so he will play against the Pelicans. The veteran forward will occupy his usual spot in the starting lineup, continuing to fill in for the injured Dillon Brooks.

O’Neale came up big when the Suns needed him most, scoring the team’s final seven points in Thursday’s 113-110 victory. His last basket came with nine-tenths of a second remaining, with the veteran wing knocking down a triple from the left wing. O’Neale has made multiple three-pointers in eight of his last nine appearances. While worth a look in deep leagues where there is a need for three-point production, O’Neale offers a limited fantasy ceiling.

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.
