Traoré’s absence on Sunday led to fellow rookie Ben Saraf playing rotation minutes off the bench. While neither player is a factor in redraft leagues currently, that may change after the All-Star break.

While Traoré’s absence won’t affect fantasy basketball, it does free up minutes on the back end of the Nets’ rotation. Terance Mann, who did not play in Friday’s double-overtime loss to the Celtics, may re-enter the rotation on Sunday. Another possibility is that rookie Ben Saraf, who last played in an NBA game on December 6, gets a few minutes since he’s not on assignment with the Nets’ G League affiliate.

Traore took some time to earn his spot in the Nets’ rotation, but he’s finally at that point. The results hadn’t been pretty, but he was fantastic in this game. He set a new career high for points and minutes, though it wasn’t enough for Brooklyn to get the win in double overtime. Traore will continue to inconsistently produce while seeing big minutes, which could lead to some fun production during silly season.

The Nets snapped a five-game losing streak in Friday’s win over the Bulls but they didn’t fare so well during Sunday night’s rematch with leading scorer Michael Porter Jr. sitting out for load management reasons. Their issues weren’t limited to the offensive end as they allowed Chicago to shoot 52 percent from the floor and surrendered 124 points in a one-sided affair. Traore was one of the few bright spots as he did most of his damage in garbage time, knocking down 4-of-5 from beyond the arc to finish with a season-high 16 points off the bench. He’s earned some additional run but doesn’t offer enough of a role to be a viable streaming option for fantasy managers. The Nets have a four-game week coming up that features showdown against the Suns, Knicks, Celtics and Clippers.
