While Monday’s game wasn’t the first time that the Spencer brothers have matched up this season, Pat figured far more prominently in the Warriors’ rotation on Monday than he did on October 27. Making a third consecutive start, the Warriors guard provided excellent value in points, assists and steals. Over the past week, Spencer has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats according to Basketball Monster. And with Stephen Curry (knee) ruled out for Wednesday’s game against the Spurs, Spencer is worth the streaming risk in deep leagues.

On the same day that he was upgraded to a standard contract, Spencer produced another solid effort for the Warriors. Rostered in three percent of Yahoo! leagues, the Warriors’ guard has provided top-50 per-game value over the past week, according to Basketball Monster. At the very least, Spencer is worth rolling the dice on for the Warriors’ final two games before the All-Star break. Golden State plays four games total during Week 17.

After getting through a trade deadline that appeared to have a significant impact on the team, Golden State picked up one of its best wins of the season in Phoenix. And Spencer was a key contributor, hitting six of the Warriors’ 20 three-pointers and leading five double-digit scorers with a career-high 20 points. The two-way player was inserted into the starting lineup for Thursday’s game, and he may have played well enough to hold onto that role until Stephen Curry (knee) returns. With Brandin Podziemski being limited to 13 minutes because of an unspecified injury — he did return during the third quarter — Spencer’s role may take on added importance in Saturday’s game against the Lakers.

Moody, Santos and Green are the holdovers from the quintet that started Tuesday’s blowout loss to the 76ers. The changes are Spencer and Melton, with Brandin Podziemski and Al Horford moving to the bench. Of the replacements, Melton offers a higher fantasy ceiling in this spot.

Three of the starters from Sunday’s win over the Timberwolves — Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Al Horford — are unavailable for Monday’s rematch, as is reserve De’Anthony Melton. Spencer, Santos and Post move into the starting lineup, and the absences also boost the fantasy values of Podziemski and Moody.

Spencer had been on a hot streak for the shorthanded Warriors, but when the team got healthy, he only played seven minutes in his most recent appearance. He’ll be back after a one-game absence, but he likely won’t play a significant role.

Spencer had been starring for Golden State, but with the team healthy for their last game, Spencer only played seven minutes. His absence will hurt their depth, but it shouldn’t impact fantasy basketball.

Spencer stepped up to shoulder the scoring workload in his first career start for a bizarre Golden State lineup that was missing Stephen Curry (quad), Draymond Green (foot), Jimmy Butler (knee) and Al Hortford (sciatica) out of action. The 29-year-old guard dished out seven helpers and knocked down a couple pivotal shots in the fourth quarter to help the Warriors stave off a late rally from the Cavaliers. He’ll continue to get opportunities with Curry expected to miss at least another week while recovering from a quad bruise.

The Warriors have been decimated by injuries, resulting in multiple changes to the starting lineup. Spencer, Kuminga and Post will be in the starting lineup, with Brandin Podziemski moving to the bench while Draymond Green and Al Horford are out. Spencer, who’s totaled 33 points in his last two games, is worth streaming while Kuminga and Post will also have added fantasy value.

After matching his career-high in Tuesday’s loss to the Thunder, Spencer had another good night on Thursday. The two-way contract guard hit some big shots in the fourth quarter, including a three with 1:12 remaining that gave Golden State a 98-94 lead. Unfortunately for the Warriors, they would not score again, with Philadelphia ending the game on a 5-0 run. Spencer has some viability as a deep-league streamer for the final two games of Golden State’s road trip, due mainly to the absences of Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler.

Due to injuries to Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler, the Warriors needed contributions from everyone to compete with the reigning champs on Tuesday. That includes Spencer, who matched his career-high in points in 21 minutes off the bench. In the three games leading up to Tuesday, the two-way contract guard totaled seven points on 3-of-6 shooting from the field. Against the Thunder, Spencer also recorded a career-high in made shots (eight) and provided solid value in the assist category. He should not be picked up in the immediate aftermath of Tuesday’s showing, but Spencer is worth watching for now.

Spencer is back with the Warriors on a two-way deal after appearing in 39 games last season. He only averaged 6.4 minutes per game in those appearances and is likely ticketed for a similar role in 2025-26.

Spencer hasn’t impacted fantasy basketball this season, but he’s had some good moments for the Warriors. The team has upgraded him from a two-way to a standard contract, which means Spencer will be eligible to play in the postseason. The Warriors now have one open two-way contract slot.
