RecapDe’Anthony Melton accounted for 21 points (6-of-9 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, two steals, one block and six three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Clippers.
With Stephen Curry getting the night off, Melton started Sunday’s game and played 28 minutes. Unsurprisingly, the one-time fantasy basketball darling recorded a stat line that reminded folks why he remains a popular deep-league option. Melton’s six three-pointers were the most he’s made in a game since December 9, 2022, when he hit eight as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers. With Curry expected to play Monday against the Suns, Melton will head back to the bench.
