  • Gradey Dick SG | LAC

    Raptors' Gradey Dick: Scores 11 points in win

    Dick ended Sunday's 139-87 win over the Magic with 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist across 23 minutes.

    Dick has been used sparingly in recent weeks, but he took advantage of some extra touches in this 52-point blowout win. Over his last six outings, he's averaging just 13.7 minutes per contest with 6.8 points, 1.5 assists and 1.5 rebounds on 40.0 percent shooting from the field.

  • Raptors' Sandro Mamukelashvili: Strong line off bench

    Mamukelashvili finished Sunday's 139-87 win over the Magic with 19 points (8-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and three steals in 21 minutes.

    Although he saw slightly fewer minutes than Jakob Poeltl, Mamukelashvili was the third-leading scorer in this contest for Toronto and made the most of his action. He's been excellent over his last seven games, posting averages of 14.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.9 three-pointers in 20.5 minutes per contest.

  • Alijah Martin SG | TOR

    Raptors' Alijah Martin: Fares well off bench

    Martin closed Sunday's 139-87 victory over the Magic with eight points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 13 minutes.

    The Raptors won this game by 52 points, so naturally, the team was able to rely heavily on the bench down the stretch. Martin has just 18 appearances to his name this season with averages of 2.7 points and 1.1 rebounds in 6.5 minutes per contest.

  • Magic's Jase Richardson: Scoreless in 18 minutes

    Richardson finished with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds and three assists in 18 minutes during Sunday's 139-87 loss to the Raptors.

    Richardson couldn't find his rhythm Sunday, but he was shooting the ball well heading into the matchup. Across his last five outings, he's hitting 57.1 percent from the field, but he's getting just 10.9 minutes per contest, which keeps him off the fantasy radar.

  • Grayson Allen SG | CHA

    Suns' Grayson Allen: Questionable Monday

    Allen (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

    Monday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, and Allen is likely to get a maintenance day for one of these. If the Suns hold out the sharpshooter Monday, the team could rely more on Jordan Goodwin with the second unit.

  • Paolo Banchero PF | ORL

    Magic's Paolo Banchero: Poor showing in blowout

    Banchero provided nine points (3-14 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 30 minutes during Sunday's 139-87 loss to Toronto.

    The Magic were run out of the building in this one, yet Banchero still logged 30 minutes -- no other starter reached that mark. This was just a small setback for Banchero, as he's averaging 25.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.6 three-pointers over his last eight games.

  • Pistons' Wendell Moore: Could be available Monday

    The Pistons list Moore (two-way) as questionable for Monday's game against the Thunder.

    Moore sat out the G League Motor City Cruise's regular-season finale Saturday against the Osceola Magic for what was believed to be right knee injury management in the second leg of a back-to-back set, but his health doesn't look like it will be a factor in whether he suits up for Detroit on Monday. Instead, the Pistons appear to be contemplating whether to make Moore available Monday in what would essentially be another back-to-back set for the fourth-year wing. Moore will likely rejoin Motor City for its playoff opener Tuesday versus Raptors 905, so even with Detroit listing five rotation players as out for Monday's game in Oklahoma City, the two-way player may not be asked to handle extended minutes in an effort to keep him fresh for Tuesday.

  • Bobi Klintman PF | DET

    Pistons' Bobi Klintman: Back with Detroit

    The Pistons recalled Klintman from the G League's Motor City Cruise on Sunday.

    Klintman has rarely been part of the Detroit rotation this season, but he could have a chance at seeing some meaningful minutes Monday in Oklahoma City while the Pistons have ruled out two key players (Cade Cunningham and Isaiah Stewart) and are listing three more as doubtful (Jalen Duren, Tobias Harris and Duncan Robinson) and another as questionable (Ausar Thompson). After Monday's contest, Klintman could return to the G League to suit up for the Cruise in its playoff opener Tuesday versus Raptors 905.

  • Antonio Reeves SG | MIN

    Hornets' Antonio Reeves: Back with parent club

    The Hornets recalled Reeves from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Monday.

    Though Charlotte assigned two players on its 15-man roster (Tidjane Salaun and Liam McNeeley) to the Swarm in advance of Tuesday's G League playoff opener versus the Maine Celtics, Reeves will wind up joining the parent club ahead of its next contest Tuesday in Brooklyn. A two-way player, Reeves has made just nine appearances for Charlotte this season while instead seeing the bulk of his action in the G League. Reeves is unlikely to be featured in the Charlotte rotation Tuesday but could see some garbage-time minutes if the heavily favored Hornets are able to turn the game into a runaway by the third or fourth quarter.

  • Nolan Traore PG | BKN

    Nets' Nolan Traore: Strong showing in win

    Traore supplied 17 points (6-13 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 3-5 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Sunday's 116-99 win over the Kings.

    Traore was second only to Ochai Agbaji (18) in scoring Sunday. The rookie is averaging 10.1 points, 5.1 assists, 2.1 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.1 three-pointers over his last seven games, but he's shooting an abysmal 29.6 percent from the field.
