Jaylen Brown - SG

Boston Celtics

Jaylen Brown (right hamstring) "wouldn't miss a beat" if the season restarted, according to his trainer Desmond Eastmond.

Added Apr 23 12:17 am (EST)

Eastmond has communicated with Brown daily with Zoom chats and lists of workout goals. He said Brown has done "band and core workouts, as well as cardio and bodyweight exercises," adding, "JB was already in great shape,” Eastmond said. “He eats well, the chef is there also. If they started back tomorrow, he wouldn’t miss a beat." There was no mention of the hamstring injury that cost Brown five games prior to the NBA's hiatus, so presumably that's no longer an issue.

J. Brunson - PG

DAL

Jalen Brunson shot 2-of-4 on Saturday vs Houston, scoring nine points with three boards, three assists and a steal in the loss.

Brunson's three-game double-digit scoring streak came to an end on Saturday as the Mavs were blown out by the Rockets. And with Josh Richardson nearing his return and Tim Hardaway Jr. playing well, Brunson can go back on the shelf in all leagues.

B. Marjanovic - C

DAL

Boban Marjanovic played 19 minutes off the bench in Saturday's loss to the Rockets, accounting for 15 points (6-of-11 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs) and 12 rebounds.

Boban is a "matchup" guy on most nights, as who the Mavericks are playing against will determine whether or not he gets any playing time. But give the big fella credit for staying ready for his moment, and this showing was his best of the season to date. Marjanovic's position within the rotation makes him an unplayable option in most leagues, even when Kristaps Porzingis (rest) is sidelined like he was Saturday night.

W. Cauley-Stein - C

DAL

Willie Cauley-Stein started on Saturday vs the Rockets but didn't do much, finishing with a light six points, three rebounds and a block in 18 minutes.

Kristaps Porzingis (knee; rest) was out for the Mavs on Saturday leading to a WCS spot start but Cauley-Stein was super quiet in the loss. He's only scored in double figures three times this year and has just one double-double in 16 games. And even in a starting role, WCS was outplayed by Boban Marjanovic who dropped 15 and 12 off the bench in 19 minutes.

L. Doncic - PG

DAL

Luka Doncic played 29 minutes in Saturday's loss to the Rockets, tallying 26 points (9-of-18 FGs, 7-of-12 FTs), five rebounds, eight assists, one blocked shot and one 3-pointer.

With no Kristaps Porzingis (rest) and Tim Hardaway Jr. having a tough night shooting the basketball, Doncic was left to shoulder much of the scoring load. He hasn't performed as well as many fantasy managers expected him to before the season began, but the Mavericks' depleted roster has been a big reason why. Providing second-round value in 8-cat formats, Doncic has only been a fourth-round player in 9-cat due in large part to turnovers. Averaging 3.9 turnovers per game for the season, Doncic has five games this month in which he's tallied at least five. He had three in Saturday's defeat.

D. Ayton - C

PHX

Deandre Ayton tallied 17 points (7-of-14 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), 13 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one 3-pointer in 38 minutes Saturday vs. the Nuggets.

Since accounting for eight points and six rebounds in a January 11 loss to the Wizards, Ayton has tallied four straight double-doubles. Unfortunately for he and the Suns, Ayton wasn’t on the court for the second overtime as he fouled out with just over a minute remaining in the first extra session. Over the last week Ayton has been a top-10 player in both 8- and 9-cat formats, playing arguably his best basketball of the season to date. Boasting a Yahoo ADP of 21, Ayton hasn’t played at that level consistently but he’s making strides.

C. Paul - PG

PHX

Chris Paul posted a line of 21 points (9-of-20 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), nine rebounds, 13 assists, two steals and one 3-pointer in 42 minutes Saturday vs. the Nuggets.

Paul fell one rebound shy of what would have been his first triple-double of the season. Also, the 20 field goal attempts were the most that he’s had in a game this season. A big reason for that was the absence of Devin Booker, who injured his hamstring during Friday’s overtime loss to the Nuggets. Should Booker have to miss more time, with the Suns not scheduled to play again until Wednesday, then Paul will have more opportunities to go for his own offense. That’s good news for fantasy managers who have him rostered, as over the last week CP3 has provided third-round value in 8-cat formats.

C. Johnson - PF

PHX

Cameron Johnson shot 7-of-16 from the field and 2-of-3 from the foul line in Saturday’s loss to the Nuggets, tallying 19 points, three rebounds, two steals and three 3-pointers in 35 minutes.

Johnson fell two points shy of his season-high Saturday night, and he may have been able to reach it had he not been sidelined due to cramping. The second-year forward did not play in either overtime period, with Abdel Nader getting those minutes. Nader played 30 minutes, finishing with six points, four rebounds, two assists and one 3-pointer. Johnson, who’s rostered in 32% of Yahoo leagues, has been providing late-round value in both 8- and 9-cat formats over the last week. He isn’t a must-have player, but that could change should Devin Booker (hamstring) have to miss more time.

J. Crowder - PF

PHX

Starting in place of the injured Devin Booker, Jae Crowder played 45 minutes and finished with 21 points (6-of-15 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), seven rebounds, three assists, one steal and six 3-pointers in a loss to the Nuggets.

Crowder began the season as a starter, but he was moved to the second unit in favor of Cameron Johnson just under a week ago. The Bossman was back in the starting lineup Saturday night, and he put forth one of his best stat lines of the season. Crowder’s 3-pointer with seven-tenths of a second remaining in the first overtime extended the game another five minutes, with the Nuggets ultimately pulling away. Crowder’s six 3-pointers matched a season-high for him, and over the last week he has provided 10th-round value in both 8- and 9-cat formats. His value would increase if Booker has to miss more time due to the hamstring issue, but it’s worth noting that Phoenix won’t play again until Wednesday.
