E. Brand - PF

PHI

76ers GM Elton Brand has met with "several top candidates" for the franchise’s head coach opening and the team expects to bring a shortlist of candidates to Philly within 10 days for the next round of interviews, Shams Charania of The Athletic reported.

"Former Rockets coach Mike D’Antoni, ex-Thunder coach Billy Donovan and Clippers assistant Ty Lue are expected to be part of the next round of interviews and are strongly vying for and interested in the position," Shams adds. Brand is on the record saying that he doesn't intend to trade Ben Simmons or Joel Embiid so they'll be looking to bring in someone who could maximize their talents while upgrading the rest of the rotation after they were exposed in the playoffs.

J. Wiseman - C

GSW

James Wiseman went 8-of-11 from the field and 4-of-5 from the stripe on his way to 20 points in Wednesday's blowout win over the Spurs.

Wiseman added six rebounds and four assists in his 25 minutes of floor time, and he likely would have had an even better stat line had the game not been a blowout. Some defensive stats would have been nice, but at least he finished the game without a single turnover after committing five over 13 foul-plagued minutes on MLK Day.

K. Oubre - SF

GSW

Kelly Oubre scored 16 points on 4-of-11 shooting (6-of-8 FT) Wednesday, to go with nine rebounds, two triples, two steals and one block over 31 minutes in a blowout win over the Spurs.

Oubre got off to a horrific start this season, but he's starting to find his footing in Golden State, and over the past five games he's been a top-50 producer with averages of 16.4 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.2 triples, 1.2 steals, 1.2 blocks and just 0.6 turnovers per game on 42.2% shooting from the field and 81% from the line. We think he's just scratching the surface right now, so there's still some room to buy-low here.

A. Wiggins - SF

GSW

Andrew Wiggins (knee) scored 18 points on 7-of-12 shooting (1-of-3 FT) Wednesday, to go with three triples, seven rebounds, three assists and one turnover in 31 minutes.

Wiggins was initially listed as questionable heading into today's game with a minor knee issue, but the fact that he played and logged significant minutes in a blowout win tells us there's not much to worry about here. Wiggins is averaging his lowest-scoring numbers (17.8) since his rookie year in Golden State, but he's uncharacteristically getting his points efficiently (52.4 EFG%), while sending away a career-high 1.5 shots per game, which has him flirting with top-75 value if you ignore the free throw shooting (68.8).

S. Curry - PG

GSW

Stephen Curry had a 26-point, 11-rebound double-double in Wednesday's 121-99 win over the Spurs.

Curry got his points efficiently, going 10-of-17 from the field and 2-of-2 from the stripe and he added four triples, seven dimes and four turnovers in his 31 minutes of floor time. As a team, the Dubs handed out another 31 dimes in this one, matching their total from Monday's victory over the Lakers, and they're now 4-0 this season when dishing at least 30 assists. Draymond Green was the second-leading table-setter tonight, and he finished with nine points, six assists, one rebound, one 3-pointer and one turnover in 26 minutes.

K. Johnson - SF

SAS

Keldon Johnson couldn't get his shot to drop on Wednesday, going 2-of-12 from the field for 12 points, eight rebounds, three assists and one turnover in 27 minutes.

While Johnson couldn't get any of his shot attempts to fall through the bucket, he still managed to find a way to be effective, by going 8-of-11 from the charity stripe. The second-year forward got abused with the Kelly Oubre treatment tonight, but we'd anticipate a bit of a bounce-back performance on Friday vs. Dallas.

N/A

L. Walker - SG

SAS

Lonnie Walker went just 1-of-6 from the field on Wednesday for one 3-pointer, three rebounds and one turnover in a blowout loss to the Warriors.

Walker hurt the thumb on his left (non-shooting) hand back on Jan. 14, and he's been awful ever since, with three straight single-digit scoring performances. Over that three-game stretch, Walker has been connecting on just 23.8% of his shot attempts to go with averages of 5.3 points, 3.7 rebounds and not much else in 27.1 minutes a night. He belongs on the waiver wire in most leagues.

D. Murray - PG

SAS

Dejounte Murray scored 22 points on 9-of-16 shooting Wednesday, to go with six rebounds, three assists, one 3-pointer and two steals over 30 minutes in a blowout loss to the Warriors.

Murray was a perfect 3-of-3 from the charity stripe in this one, and he also finished the game without committing a single turnover. DeMar DeRozan went 3-of-8 from the floor and 9-of-9 from the line on his way to 15 points, two rebounds, three assists, one steal and two turnovers across 25 minutes in the 22-point loss.

Added 1:13 am (EST)

N/A

L. Aldridge - C

SAS

LaMarcus Aldridge was held to just four points on 2-of-8 shooting in Wednesday's blowout loss to the Warriors, adding three rebounds and one block over 23 minutes.

Aldridge came alive for 22 points in Monday's MLK Day win over Portland, but he found himself back in the gutter tonight with another single-digit performance. On Monday, he got a majority of his shots in the midrange, but today he reverted to his long-range ways while failing to connect on a single 3-pointer. He's now shooting just 25% on a career-high 3.7 attempts from distance, and while he's converting on 50% of his midrange attempts, those shots make up a career-low 14.3% of his total shot attempts. Something needs to change.

T. Davis - SG

TOR

Terence Davis (hip) looked good in 24 minutes off the bench on Wednesday, registering 16 points, four rebounds, four 3-pointers, one assist, three steals, one block and two turnovers in a loss to the Heat.

Davis has been in-and-out of the rotation this season, but he always tends to produce when he's allowed to eclipse the 20-minute mark, so it'll be interesting to see if he's able to force Nick Nurse to make some adjustments to his regular rotation after this game. Norman Powell has been awful, so if Davis can Wally Pipp him, he could have some value in deep leagues. For now, just put him on your watch list.

N/A

N. Powell - SG

TOR

Norman Powell couldn't keep his hot streak going on Wednesday, scoring just seven points on 3-of-8 shooting to go with one 3-pointer, one turnover and nothing else in 19 minutes off the bench.

Just when we thought Powell was ready to get things going with back-to-back solid games, he comes back to earth with this stinker. He's been bad far more often than he's been good this season with measly averages of 11.7 points, 1.9 treys and just 0.9 steals per game on 39.8% shooting, which has him ranking well outside the top-50. It's possible that he'll figure it out at some point, but we're running out of reasons to rationalize keeping him on your roster.

J. Tate - SF

HOU

Jae'Sean Tate replaced David Nwaba in the starting five on Wednesday and played a team-high 37 minutes, but hit 3-of-5 shots and a 3-pointer for nine points, six rebounds and nothing else in a loss to the Suns.

If he's going to continue to start at SF for the Rockets he's going to be worth a serious look in fantasy. The stat line was disappointing but the minutes were the opposite. This guy should be at the top of your watch list and if things go well and he starts again on Friday against the Pistons, he's going to be a hot pickup.

N/A

S. Brown - SG

HOU

Sterling Brown returned from a leg injury on Wednesday and played 21 minutes, finishing with four points, one rebound, two assists and two steals on 2-of-3 shooting.

He was a hot pickup/DFS play when Vic Oladipo was en route and Eric Gordon was hurting, but they're both good to go now. And as long as that's the case, Brown's not worth rostering.
