Brown accumulated eight points (3-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and one block over 20 minutes during Sunday's 131-111 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Brown has scored in single figures in six straight games, and his streaming viability is mostly tied to occasions when the Pacers choose to rest some of their key contributors. The third-year forward has averaged 7.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 22.7 minutes per tilt in his last six games.

Johnson recorded 20 points (7-13 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 22 minutes during Sunday's 138-118 loss to the Pelicans.

The rookie first-rounder is acclimating well to life alongside Trae Young in the backcourt so far, putting up at least 15 points in consecutive games. That said, the Wizards don't yet seem to be fully committed to handing Johnson big minutes, as he has averaged 11.3 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.9 three-pointers in 21.6 minutes per tilt in his last seven games.

Duren contributed 24 points (10-12 FG, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block over 26 minutes during Sunday's 121-110 loss to the Heat.

Duren's career-best season continued Sunday despite the Pistons dropping this contest. Across 53 regular-season appearances, Duren is averaging 18.5 points, 10.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.8 blocks in 27.9 minutes per contest.

Walter accumulated 11 points (4-11 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals in 26 minutes during Sunday's 122-92 win over the Mavericks.

Walter was a spark off the bench along with Sandro Mamukelashvili. Walter hasn't been reliable lately, shooting 38.2 percent from the field over his last six games while averaging 6.8 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.2 steals in 21.2 minutes per contest.

Clifford finished Sunday's 126-110 victory over the Bulls with eight points (3-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 31 minutes.

The rookie first-rounder is benefiting from Sacramento's youth movement, starting five consecutive games and playing significant minutes. Clifford has averaged 12.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.6 steals in 34.4 minutes per game during this span, so he's showing some promise on both ends of the court.

Okoro accumulated nine points (2-5 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound and one assist over 24 minutes before fouling out of Sunday's 126-110 loss to the Kings.

Okoro remains a low-end option for fantasy purposes in most formats. He's scored in single digits in four consecutive games and five of his last six contests, with Okoro averaging 7.5 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 31.2 minutes per game while shooting just 32.5 percent from the floor during that latter period.

Poeltl finished with 16 points (8-9 FG), 10 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 30 minutes during Sunday's 122-92 win over the Mavericks.

Poeltl is seemingly turning a corner with his back issue and is trending up in fantasy hoops. Over his last five games, he's been a second-round value in nine-category leagues with averages of 13.4 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.6 blocks in 28.8 minutes per contest.

Bridges posted zero points (0-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal over 27 minutes during Sunday's 110-97 loss to the Lakers.

This was a major dud for Bridges, as he missed all six of his shots from the field. Despite this misstep, Bridges remains on track to return third-round value in nine-category fantasy leagues with averages of 15.3 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.4 steals and 2.0 three-pointers.

Collier (illness) is out for Monday's game against the Warriors.

Collier was unable to shake his questionable tag for this contest. Meanwhile, Keyonte George (illness) remains questionable. With this news, Elijah Harkless, Cody Williams and Svi Mykhailiuk could step into larger roles.

Merrill amassed five points (2-9 FG, 1-7 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Sunday's 109-98 loss to the Celtics.

Merrill saw a healthy workload Sunday but could not make the most of his minutes with Jarrett Allen (knee) sidelined. Merrill remains a low-end fantasy asset with season averages of 12.9 points, 3.3 three-pointers, 2.3 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 25.9 minutes per contest.
