Wendell Carter Jr. C | ORL
Magic's Wendell Carter: Posts double-double
Carter recorded 15 points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 12 rebounds and two steals across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 115-111 win over the Suns.
Carter was efficient on both ends of the court and posted his second double-double over the last three games. While Carter's upside on offense is being the team's No. 3 option in a best-case scenario, he ultimately produces enough even in a limited role to be considered a strong fantasy option. Carter ended March scoring in double digits in nine of his last 10 appearances, averaging 13.6 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.0 steals per contest.

Jalen Green SG | PHO
Suns' Jalen Green: Struggles badly with shot
Green totaled eight points (3-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, two assists and two steals across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 115-111 loss to the Magic.
Devin Booker carried the Suns in this tight loss to the Magic, and there's a chance that the outcome could've been different had Green been more accurate with his shot. Green was coming off five straight games with at least 20 points, so this was just a bump in the road for the talented scorer. Green averaged 21.8 points per game while appearing in each of the Suns' 16 games during March.

Rasheer Fleming PF | PHO
Suns' Rasheer Fleming: Productive in limited minutes
Fleming chipped in 11 points (4-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT) and four rebounds in 16 minutes during Tuesday's 115-111 loss to Orlando.
Fleming made the most of his limited playing time, as it was the first time he scored in double digits while playing fewer than 20 minutes. Even though all four of Fleming's double-digit scoring performances came in March, it's hard to trust him since he regularly comes off the bench and often plays under 25 minutes. With that kind of role, projecting Fleming to contribute steadily in fantasy is a tough task, especially with Dillon Brooks (hand) back in action and Mark Williams (foot) getting closer to a return.

Collin Gillespie PG | PHO
Suns' Collin Gillespie: Scores 11 points in loss
Gillespie racked up 11 points (4-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 115-111 loss to Orlando.
Even though he remains a player with decent fantasy upside due to the tight grip he has on a starting role, it's worth noting he's been trending in the wrong direction for a while now. Gillespie might have scored in double digits in seven of his last eight games, but over that stretch, he's averaging 12.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 5.4 assists per contest while shooting 38.5 percent from the floor and 34.8 percent from three-point range.

Jrue Holiday PG | POR
Trail Blazers' Jrue Holiday: Strikes for 30 points
Holiday totaled 30 points (10-21 FG, 7-15 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 114-104 victory over the Clippers.
Holiday took control on the offensive end and led the Blazers in scoring and made treys. He did so in an efficient manner by drilling 46.7 of his attempts from beyond the arc, and he fell one triple shy of tying his season high in three-point makes. Holiday isn't at the stage in his career where he's able to supply this type of pop on a nightly basis, but he still has a few elite performances in the tank.

Luka Doncic PG | LAL
Lakers' Luka Doncic: Erupts for 42-point night
Doncic registered 42 points (13-26 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 10-10 FT), five rebounds, 12 assists and two steals in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 127-113 win over the Cavaliers.
Doncic didn't skip a beat after serving a one-game suspension Monday against the Wizards for picking up his 16th technical foul of the campaign. He put together an offensive masterpiece and secured his first double-double since March 18 by reaching double-digit assists. Doncic reached the 40-point threshold for the 16th time this year and closed March by reaching the 40-point mark in three consecutive showings.

John Collins PF | DET
Clippers' John Collins: Makes quick stop in locker room
Collins went to the locker room during the third quarter of Tuesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to an undisclosed injury, but he returned for the start of the fourth, Adam Ausland of Fox Sports Radio reports.
Ausland notes that Collins appeared to suffer the injury while competing with Brook Lopez for a rebound. Collins checked out of the game with 6:23 remaining in the third period to get evaluated in the locker room. He would later emerge from the tunnel in time to start the final period of play.

Reed Sheppard SG | HOU
Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Strong performance off bench
Sheppard ended with 20 points (8-12 FG, 4-7 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 111-94 win over the Knicks.
Sheppard moved back to the bench, although he still managed to maintain his recent momentum. While his demotion was seemingly a step in the wrong direction, head coach Ime Udoka spoke prior to the game, indicating this was merely a temporary move, with Sheppard likely back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Bucks. Continue to roster him with confidence.

Clint Capela C | HOU
Rockets' Clint Capela: Fails to score in victory
Capela contributed zero points (0-1 FG), two rebounds and one assist across 12 minutes during Tuesday's 111-94 victory over the Knicks.
Capela's role, although relatively secure, is certainly not that of a player aspiring to be a starter in the NBA. Now toward the backend of his career, Capela is really the only option Houston has in terms of a backup center. While he can provide sporadic contributions in both rebounds and blocks, his production has been far too inconsistent to warrant fantasy attention.

Mitchell Robinson C | BOS
Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Struggles again in loss
Robinson amassed five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and one steal over 16 minutes during Tuesday's 111-94 loss to the Rockets.
Robinson has struggled to have an impact in recent times, averaging just 4.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 19.9 minutes per game across his past three appearances. Although he has been mostly healthy, his impact remains inconsistent, particularly from a fantasy standpoint. At best, managers can consider him for streaming purposes when in need of boards and blocks.
