Chandler Hutchison logged 32 minutes in Monday's matinee, finishing with eight points, nine rebounds, a block and a 3-pointer against the Cavs.
Hutchison took only three shots on the day. The playing time at least gives him a floor to work with in extremely deep leagues but the usage is far from inspiring. He's at 28 mpg over the last five and is pretty much the last small forward on the roster, so even if the numbers aren't great Hutch isn't being pushed for minutes.

Bruce Brown Jr. double-doubled on Saturday with 16 points, 10 rebounds, six assists and four steals in 31 minutes.
This was a monster line but Andre Drummond (eye) was out and Blake Griffin (left knee soreness) left early opening up more usage for Brown. Brown is trending up lately and is averaging 8.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.1 steals in the month of December. He is producing standard-league value lately and is worth a look to see if he can continue to improve.

Derrick Rose double-doubled on Saturday with 20 points (10-of-21 from the field) and 12 assists in a 115-107 win over the Rockets.
Rose is producing late-round value with points and assists as his biggest contributions with averages of 16.4 points and 6.0 assists per game.

Christian Wood double-doubled with 11 points on 4-of-8 shooting and 12 rebounds in 22 minutes on Saturday.
Blake Griffin left this game with knee soreness and did not return. Wood is a per-minute monster and could be a standard-league player in only 25 minutes per game. He is worth a look in standard-leagues if Griffin misses extended time.

December 15, 2019, 12:20 amLuka DoncicPG-SF, Dallas Mavericks
Rick Carlisle said that the X-rays were negative on Luka Doncic's ankle, but he doesn't expect Doncic to play on Monday.
Stay tuned for an update on Doncic's status as it gets closer to Monday. Lets just hope its not serious and the sophomore sensation can return quickly. Jalen Brunson started the second half for Doncic and scored 18 points with eight assists in 34 minutes. Brunson will be worth streaming on Monday if Doncic is sidelined and Kristaps Porzingis (22 points and 14 rebounds on Saturday) should see a big boost in usage if Doncic is out.

Giannis Antetokounmpo dominated the Cavs on Saturday with 29 points on 12-of-20 shooting in just 24 minutes.
Giannis was questionable with right quad soreness but suited up and barely broke a sweat on his way to 29 points. The free throw percentage is a big weakness for Giannis, but everything else is gravy for the MVP.

December 15, 2019, 12:03 amKhris MiddletonSF, Milwaukee Bucks
Khris Middleton chipped in 24 points with six assists on Saturday, shooting 8-of-12 from the field and 3-of-4 from deep.
Middleton is hot lately, shooting .500 from the field or greater in eight of his last nine games. He is inside the top-50 and his percentages have a lot to do with it as he is now shooting .500 from the field on the season and .895 from the line.

December 14, 2019, 11:59 pmTim Hardaway Jr.SF, Dallas Mavericks
Tim Hardaway Jr. was able to score 28 points, along with five rebounds, three assists, six 3-pointers and an 11-for-22 shooting line in Saturday's 118-122 OT loss to the Heat.
Hardaway was hot a couple weeks ago, went into a mini-slump, popped off for 29 points against the Kings two games ago, followed that up with a two-point dud and now drops this one on us. He's as streaky as ever but should probably be added where available in the wake of Luka Doncic's injury. The Mavs need someone to bring the perimeter scoring, and it doesn't look like THJ will have any threats to his shots. He's a top-175/150 player on the year and should improve upon that while Doncic is out.

December 14, 2019, 11:58 pmGeorge HillPG, Milwaukee Bucks
George Hill scored 11 points on 4-of-8 shooting with five rebounds in 22 minutes on Saturday.
Hill should see a boost in value with Eric Bledsoe (shin) expected to be out the next two weeks. Donte DiVincenzo (15 points in 25 minutes) got the start and is the preferred option while Beldsoe is out, but Hill can produce late-round value in the short term and is worth a look in standard leagues.

December 14, 2019, 11:55 pmKristaps PorzingisPF-C, Dallas Mavericks
Kristaps Porzingis finished Saturday's loss with 22 points, 14 rebounds, a steal, two blocks and three 3-pointers in 40 minutes of action.
Porzingis went just 7-of-21 from the field, but we're about to see what he looks like as the go-to guy in Dallas with Luka Doncic expected to miss some time. KP has been a top-75 option this season as the team's second fiddle but could be in for some old fashioned lines in the coming days.

December 14, 2019, 11:54 pmDonte DiVincenzoSG, Milwaukee Bucks
Donte DiVincenzo filled up the box score on Saturday with 15 points, five rebounds, four assists and three steals in 25 minutes.
DiVincenzo started for Eric Bledsoe (shin) and contributed across the board. Bledsoe is expected to miss two weeks and DiVincenzo is the biggest beneficiary. He is an add in standard-leagues until Bledsoe returns.
