McConnell registered 10 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and 10 assists across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 136-110 loss to the Knicks.

McConnell handed out at least 10 assists for the second straight game, providing managers with a nice bump in that category. Indiana is running with McConnell as the starting point guard after seemingly doing anything but start him for the majority of the season. While this current thought process could end at any point, McConnell makes sense as a streaming option for as long as he's given decent minutes.

Slawson totaled eight points (2-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, three assists, two blocks and three steals in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 136-110 loss to the Knicks.

Slawson continues to deliver on the defensive end, having now recorded 12 combined steals and blocks in his past three games. While managers could look at him as a viable streaming option, his availability is likely to fluctuate based on who else is available on any given night for the Pacers. At this point, he is too risky to roster permanently but can be added as a streamer when available to play.

Hardy chipped in 16 points (6-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 130-117 loss to the Pistons.

Hardy logged 32 minutes, the most he has played since joining Washington. He ended the night scoring in double digits for the 11th time in 15 appearances as a Wizard. It's almost impossible to get a read on what the rotation is going to look like from one night to the next. At this point, managers should look at Hardy as a potential streaming consideration when in need of points and threes.

Carrington logged 30 points (12-16 FG, 6-8 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists in 37 minutes during Tuesday's 130-117 loss to Detroit.

Carrington exploded for a season-high 30 points, matching his combined total from the four previous games. As usual, Washington continues to shuffle its rotation on a nightly basis, meaning fantasy production cannot be relied upon. With that said, Trae Young is now dealing with a quad injury, which could provide Carrington with an opportunity to play consistent minutes. While he won't be this good very often, he is worth taking a flier on, particularly with three potential games remaining this week.

Gill closed with two points (1-2 FG), one rebound, one assist, one block and one steal in 16 minutes before fouling out of Tuesday's 130-117 loss to the Pistons.

Gill missed out on a great opportunity, picking up three fouls in the first seven minutes, basically putting an end to any chance he had of delivering meaningful production. With Alex Sarr sidelined due to injury maintenance, it was Gill who was inserted into the starting lineup. Assuming Sarr returns for Thursday's game against the Pistons, Gill will likely return to some sort of a bench role.

Green finished Tuesday's 130-117 victory over Washington with three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and two rebounds in five minutes.

Green was a non-factor in the win, playing just five minutes off the bench. With Ausar Thompson now back in the lineup, Green's role is likely to be largely insignificant when it comes to fantasy production. At best, he can be utilized for streaming purposes for those who are desperate for steals.

Reed produced 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-4 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 13 minutes during Tuesday's 130-117 victory over the Wizards.

Despite Isaiah Stewart's continued absence due to a calf injury, Reed failed to make a significant impact. In two games without Stewart, Reed has logged 11 and 13 minutes, averaging 7.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks. At this point, there are likely better streaming options available in most leagues.

Jenkins contributed 15 points (4-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven assists, two rebounds, two steals and one block in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 130-117 win over the Wizards.

Jenkins was left out of the rotation in the Pistons' previous game Sunday against Toronto, but he ended up starting the second half of Tuesday's contest with Cade Cunningham exiting in the first quarter due to back spasms. Jenkins was able to make the most of his opportunity, but if Cunningham is available for the rematch with Washington on Thursday, Jenkins' playing time will likely be cut down considerably. If Cunningham ends up sitting out, however, Jenkins could make for a strong streaming option for assists Thursday.

Randle produced 32 points (10-17 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 10-13 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and three steals in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 116-104 win over Phoenix.

Randle racked up 32 points for a second straight game and provided plenty of scoring with Minnesota missing the services of Anthony Edwards (knee). Edwards has been ruled out for at least the next week, meaning the Timberwolves' offense should continue to run through Randle for the next three games or so.

Mobley provided 27 points (12-21 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 15 rebounds, three blocks and two assists across 33 minutes in Tuesday's 123-116 win over the Bucks.

The star big man tied James Harden for the game high in points, with Mobley reaching the 20-point threshold for a second time in the last three games. The 24-year-old also grabbed a game-high 15 rebounds, securing his second consecutive double-double and fourth on the month. Additionally, the 2024-25 Defensive Player of the Year posted a game-high three blocks, swatting multiple shots for the fifth time in the last six games.
