Buzelis contributed four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one block across 23 minutes during Monday's 126-107 loss to the 76ers.

Buzelis endured a frustrating performance, committing five turnovers while attempting just five shots. The young forward has now scored 14 or fewer points in three consecutive appearances, and his limited offensive involvement Monday was particularly concerning. His ability to contribute across multiple categories offers fantasy upside, but inconsistent production remains an issue.

Boozer contributed 18 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and two blocks across 38 minutes during Monday's 135-134 overtime loss to the Pelicans.

Boozer delivered another well-rounded performance, narrowly missing his fourth double-double of the season while contributing two blocks. The rookie has quickly established himself as a versatile fantasy option, combining strong rebounding and playmaking with an expanding perimeter game. His substantial workload and consistent involvement across multiple categories continue to make him a valuable fantasy asset.

Hart closed with eight points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt), six rebounds, seven assists and three steals across 27 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 103-90 victory over the Nets.

Hart made his presence felt despite another quiet scoring performance, leading New York in assists while tying for the team lead in steals. He also posted a game-best plus-22 rating as the Knicks pulled away in the fourth quarter. Hart's ability to contribute rebounds, assists and defensive stats helps maintain his fantasy value even when his scoring opportunities are limited.

Flagg ended Monday's 115-100 loss to the Kings with 17 points (3-19 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 11-11 FT), four rebounds, six assists and two steals in 40 minutes.

With Kyrie Irving resting Monday, the Kings were able to devote most of their defensive attention to Flagg and hold the second-year superstar in check from the field. Flagg is still off to an excellent start overall, averaging 25.2 points, 6.5 assists and 5.7 rebounds per game so far this season.

Washington logged 12 points (2-9 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two steals across 38 minutes during Monday's 115-100 loss to the Kings.

Washington is holding down a starting position at power forward in favor of Naji Marshall and Zaccharie Risacher. Washington has put up at least 10 points in six of his first seven appearances, averaging 13.6 points, 7.7 rebounds and 1.1 assists for the season.

Allen accumulated 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Monday's 117-112 loss to the Thunder.

Allen cooled off after posting 25 points and 11 rebounds against Milwaukee on Saturday, managing just six boards despite collecting three on the offensive glass. He continues to offer reliable interior scoring and defensive contributions, though his rebounding production was modest in Monday's contest.

Portis ended with two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 18 minutes during Monday's 138-117 loss to the Lakers.

After scoring at least seven points in each of his first six appearances, Portis cooled down a bit Monday. The veteran big man does have one double-double on the year but has yet to score at least 15 points, and his production could remain erratic while Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo are healthy.

Larsson produced nine points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Monday's 138-117 loss to the Lakers.

Despite handling a reserve role, Larsson is making a case to remain worth rostering in the majority of fantasy leagues. The swingman has averaged 11.4 points, 3.7 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 29.6 minutes per game thus far this season.

Thompson amassed 19 points (7-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound and one assist in 27 minutes during Monday's 138-117 loss to the Lakers.

Thompson stayed hot Monday, sinking at least four triples for a second consecutive game. The veteran sharpshooter should continue spacing the floor for Miami's star-studded frontcourt, averaging 11.9 points, 1.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 3.3 three-pointers in 21.9 minutes per game so far this season.

Grimes contributed seven points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds and four assists in 23 minutes during Monday's 138-117 win over the Heat.

It's been a rather disappointing start to the year for Grimes, who had been penciled in as a starter for the Lakers during the preseason but has since watched Matisse Thybulle win the job. Grimes has scored in double digits just once in his past six appearances, averaging only 8.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.9 assists in 26.3 minutes per game for the season.
