Kuminga closed with seven points (2-7 FG, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds and one assist in 19 minutes during Monday's 124-112 victory over the Magic.

Kuminga returned from a one-game absence due to ongoing knee issues and struggled to find any rhythm on the offensive end. After three encouraging performances following his trade from Golden State, Kuminga has been a non-factor. He has played in just two of the past six games, averaging 4.5 points and 8.5 rebounds, shooting 18.2 percent from the field and 54.8 percent from the line.

Vincent logged zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist over 10 minutes during Monday's 124-112 win over the Magic.

Vincent failed to score for the third time in his past six games, once again playing a limited role off the bench. Since being traded to Atlanta, Vincent has struggled to carve out a meaningful role, reaching double digits only once in 11 appearances. As a player who is outside the top-400 rankings this season, Vincent holds no fantasy value, even in deeper formats.

Tatum logged 21 points (8-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Boston's 120-112 win over Phoenix on Monday.

Tatum paced the Celtics in the third quarter with nine points, and he finished tied with Derrick White as the team's second-leading scorer behind Jaylen Brown (41 points). Tatum continues to improve his conditioning after 10 months of rehab for a ruptured right Achilles tendon. The fact that he's played 32 minutes in back-to-back games is a good sign, though he'll likely sit out one game during back-to-back sets as the Celtics ramp up for the postseason. Tatum has scored at least 20 points in four straight games, though he's shooting just 25.0 percent from beyond the arc (10.0 3PA/G) over that span.

Landale supplied eight points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and two assists in 11 minutes during Monday's 124-112 win over Orlando.

Landale was subdued once again, having now scored double digits only once in the past six games. During that time, he has averaged just 6.2 points and 2.3 rebounds in 15.3 minutes per game, despite serving as the primary backup behind Onyeka Okongwu. For those in standard formats, Landale should not even be on the radar at this point.

Bitadze closed Monday's 124-112 loss to Atlanta with four points (2-3 FG), three rebounds and one assist over five minutes.

Bitadze continues to serve as the third-string center, having seen the court only six times in the past 12 games. During that time, he has averaged just 4.8 points and 3.7 rebounds, making him a non-factor in most fantasy formats.

Marshall totaled 32 points (12-24 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds and seven assists in 33 minutes during Monday's 129-111 loss to New Orleans.

Marshall certainly did his part in this one by leading the Mavs in scoring while finishing second on his club in both rebounds and assists. It's fair to categorize this two-day stretch as a major success for the Xavier product, who cruised to a 25-point showing Sunday against Cleveland. Marshall was averaging 10.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists in his first six games of March heading into this back-to-back set, so it's reassuring to see him find his groove, especially while playing alongside other key contributors such as Cooper Flagg and P.J. Washington.

Coulibaly ended with 21 points (7-10 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one steal over 33 minutes in Monday's 125-117 loss to the Warriors.

Coulibaly was efficient in his scoring effort, shooting 70 percent from the field while knocking down both of his three-point attempts. Not typically known for his outside shooting, the young forward has now converted multiple threes in three straight games for the first time this season. In addition to his scoring contributions, Coulibaly's eight rebounds Monday marked his highest total since Jan. 29.

Da Silva ended with seven points (2-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 28 minutes during Monday's 124-112 loss to the Hawks.

Despite continuing to play a sizeable role, da Silva was unable to maintain his recent production. In fact, this was arguably his worst performance in the past month, during which he has managed to put up top-40 value in standard leagues. In 14 appearances over that time, he has averaged 12.9 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 1.7 three-pointers. Despite this effort, he is worth holding for the time being, at least while Anthony Black (abdomen) and Franz Wagner (ankle) are sidelined.

White finished Monday's 120-112 win over Phoenix with 21 points (8-16 FG, 5-11 3Pt), five assists, four rebounds, one steal and one block over 29 minutes.

White did most of his scoring damage in the second quarter with 16 points (including four three-pointers) and finished tied with Jayson Tatum for the second-most points on the Celtics behind Jaylen Brown (41). It was the second time since Feb. 1 that White played less than 30 minutes as he found himself in foul trouble, but he still put together a solid stat line. He has averaged 20.5 points, 5.8 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 3.1 threes, 1.0 steals and 0.9 blocks over 34.2 minutes per game since March 1.

Cain provided two points (1-1 FG), three rebounds and one assist across 14 minutes during Monday's 124-112 loss to the Hawks.

After logging 19 minutes and producing 12 points, seven rebounds and one block in the Magic's previous game Saturday in Miami, Cain remained in the rotation for the second straight contest. The two-way player hasn't been a factor for the Magic for much of the season, but Cain appears to have at least temporarily gained the trust of head coach Jamahl Mosley. Cain could see his minor role in the rotation disappear once the likes of Anthony Black (abdomen) and Franz Wagner (ankle) return to action, however.
