Durant had 25 points (8-14 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, 10 assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Friday's 119-109 win over the Grizzlies.

Durant coughed up the rock six times during Wednesday's loss to Minnesota, but he did a much better job of taking care of the rock in Friday's win, finishing with three giveaways across 35 minutes. Durant has been a steady top-20 player this season with averages of 26.0 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 2.4 triples per contest.

Kuminga accumulated three points (0-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one block across 18 minutes during Friday's 109-102 loss to the Celtics.

Kuminga failed to produce anything of note, continuing what has been an underwhelming start to his career in Atlanta. He also continues to deal with knee issues, which have limited him to just 10 games over the past month. During that time, he has averaged just 11.8 points, 6.1 rebounds and 1.2 three-pointers, leaving him well outside the top 200 in standard fantasy leagues.

Vincent finished with three points (1-4 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and one assist across 12 minutes during Friday's 109-102 loss to the Celtics.

Vincent continues to play limited minutes off the bench, having exceeded 20 minutes only once in the past 17 games since joining the Hawks. Although he does provide the team with a solid backup option, he warrants very little attention in fantasy leagues.

Leonard had 28 points (13-26 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and three steals in 35 minutes during Friday's 114-113 victory over Indiana.

Leonard racked up the defensive stats, didn't commit a single turnover and finished with a plus-17 differential in the one-point win. The 34-year-old vet is on track to finish the season with career highs in points (28.3) and triples (2.6), and he ranks in the top five in steals (2.0) per game.

Pritchard posted 36 points (13-23 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds and four assists across 35 minutes in Friday's 109-102 win over the Hawks.

With Jaylen Brown (Achilles) sidelined, Pritchard saw increased usage and erupted for a game-high 36 points. The 28-year-old guard has been somewhat inconsistent as a scorer in March, though he has now scored in double figures in six straight games. Friday's contest marked the first time he has reached the 20-point threshold since March 2 and his first time dropping at least 30 since Feb. 22. He also knocked down at least six triples for the sixth time this season while leading the second unit in assists and rebounds.

Brown provided 11 points (4-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 27 minutes during Friday's 114-113 loss to the Clippers.

Brown saw an elevated role, starting the second half after Jarace Walker was ruled out due to a concussion. Brown took advantage of the situation, chipping in across all major categories. If Walker is forced to miss time, Brown is all of a sudden on the radar as a potential streaming option.

Slawson registered zero points (0-1 FG), one assist and one steal in four minutes during Friday's 114-113 loss to the Clippers.

Slawson had averaged 7.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.6 steals, 1.6 blocks and 1.2 three-pointers in 25.8 minutes per game over his five appearances after signing a two-way deal with the Pacers, but despite being active Friday, he was barely featured in the rotation. The third-year forward will be eligible to play in seven of Indiana's remaining eight games, but unless the Pacers shut down multiple other key players, he could struggle to see enough minutes to make for a reliable fantasy option.

McConnell closed Friday's 114-113 loss to the Clippers with two points (1-1 FG), three rebounds and three assists over 13 minutes.

McConnell's playing time continues to trend in the wrong direction, as he's now played fewer than 15 minutes in back-to-back games. Although he was coming off a 17-point performance in a loss to the Lakers, McConnell simply isn't worth holding, given his lack of overall upside. Moving forward, he should only be rostered as an assists and steals specialist.

Dunn produced two points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and two steals across 21 minutes during Friday's 114-113 victory over Indiana.

Dun continues to produce on the defensive end, having now recorded at least two steals in five straight games. However, the rest of his numbers have been less than ideal, averaging just 4.2 points and 3.2 assists per game during that span. As has been the case for the majority of his career, Dunn should be considered nothing more than a steals specialist.

Collins logged five points (2-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and two steals in 20 minutes during Friday's 114-113 victory over Indiana.

Despite continuing to start, Collins has seen his role reduced of late, having logged more than 25 minutes only twice in his past seven appearances. During that time, he has barely been a top-200 player, averaging 10.0 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 24.1 minutes per game. Although he does possess the upside to be a top-70 player, managers are well within their rights to move on from him, given his current role.
