Holmgren finished Saturday's 102-97 victory over Minnesota with 15 points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 33 minutes.

Holmgren battled the persistence of Rudy Gobert, the firepower of Karl-Anthony Towns and downhill force of Anthony Edwards all night, ultimately doing just enough to earn a win in a defensively-oriented affair. Oklahoma City shot an uncharacteristically poor 39.5 percent from the field as a team, adding contextual value to Holmgren's offensive performance.

Gobert totaled seven points (1-6 FG, 5-8 FT), 18 rebounds and two assists across 33 minutes during Saturday's 102-97 loss to the Thunder.

Gobert posted 18-plus rebounds for the fifth time this season, and he's now averaging 14.0 rebounds across his last 10 games. The lack of scoring is disappointing from a putback-threat standpoint, especially in the context of Gobert averaging 19.4 points on 72.3 percent shooting across his last five games entering Saturday. Gobert is amid a strong stretch, but his season-long 66.2 percent shooting at the rim is his lowest mark since the 2015-16 campaign.

Drummond recorded 15 points (7-11 FG, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and four steals across 19 minutes during Saturday's 125-96 win over the Grizzlies.

Despite coming into the game under an injury cloud, Drummond took advantage of a favorable matchup, tallying another double-double while adding four steals for good measure. While this was a noteworthy performance, the fact they were matched up against the Grizzlies has to be accounted for when analyzing his efforts. With Nikola Vucevic fully healthy, Drummond should be viewed as a possible streaming option for anyone needing boards and defensive stats.

Jones contributed no counting stats over three minutes during Saturday's 116-95 win over the Hawks.

Jones cracked the rotation for the second straight game, albeit for three minutes in what was a blowout victory. Given he has featured only four times in the past 10 games, managers can safely ignore him in all formats.

Hartenstein is dealing with left ankle soreness and won't return to Saturday's game against the Raptors. He finished with one point (0-1 FG, 1-2 FT) four rebounds and one assist in 23 minutes.

The fact that the Knicks are classifying Hartenstein's ankle injury as soreness rather than a sprain offers hope that he's not dealing with a major injury, but the starting center could still be at risk of missing Tuesday's game against the Nets. Precious Achiuwa would be the next man up to enter the starting five in Hartenstein's stead, and Jericho Sims could also be added to the rotation if Hartenstein misses time.

Lopez finished Saturday's 141-135 win over Detroit with 19 points (7-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal across 37 minutes.

Surprisingly, it's the first double-double of the season for the veteran center. Lopez recorded 10 boards against the Cavaliers on Dec, 29, but he scored only nine points. He continues to be among the league leaders in rejections, and Lopez has blocked multiple shots in 19 of 23 appearances since the beginning of December, including in six straight games. During that stretch, he averaged 12.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.0 blocks, 1.9 assists and 1.5 threes over that stretch.

Bol (foot) will not play in Sunday's game against the Pacers.

This will be the fourth straight game on the sidelines for Bol, and it's unclear when he'll be able to return to the court. His next chance to play will be Monday against the Bulls.

Jackson (concussion) will not play in Sunday's game against the Suns.

Jackson will miss his second straight game for Indiana and remains without a timetable for a return. His next chance to play is Tuesday versus the Nuggets.

Horford is questionable to play Sunday against Houston due to load management, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Horford routinely sits in back-to-back contests for Boston, and Sunday marks the start of a two-day Texas road trip in Houston and Dallas, respectively. If the 37-year-old doesn't suit up, Luke Kornet and Oshae Brissett will likely take on enlarged roles.

Drummond (back) will play Saturday against Memphis

Drummond will continue his perfect attendance this season after being listed as probable earlier Saturday due to lower back spasms. He joins a fully healthy Bulls' frontcourt, setting him up to reprise a modest reserve role.
