White has already been on record stating his desire to play for the team. Joining him at the workout will be Wisconsin guard Jordan Taylor, New Mexico forward Drew Gordon, Michigan State forward Draymond Green and Oakland University guard Reggie Hamilton.

Starting for the injured Ja Morant, Pippen Jr. posted the first triple-double of his career. He was +21 in 28 minutes in the 24-point victory. Pippen Jr. has played well this year, but has a lot more fantasy value while Morant is out. We should know more about Morant’s timetable to return this weekend, but in the meantime Pippen Jr. has to be in starting fantasy lineups. The Grizzlies take on the Trail Blazers on the road Sunday.

Holmgren thoroughly outplayed his Rockets counterpart, with Alperen Sengun shooting 3-of-12 from the field and scoring 11 points. Holmgren didn’t play during the fourth quarter, as the Thunder used a 44-point second quarter to remove any doubt regarding the outcome. As expected before the season began, Holmgren is providing top 20 per-game value, and it would be unsurprising if he were a 1st-round player by season’s end.

This was a routine performance for Gilgeous-Alexander, one of two Thunder players to score 29 points in 29 minutes (Chet Holmgren). Thus far, SGA’s production has aligned with his ADP, with the Thunder point guard sitting just outside the top 5 in per-game value. Oklahoma City closes out Week 3 with a game against the Warriors on Sunday.

Without Ja Morant and Desmond Bane in the lineup, Jackson Jr. exploded on the offensive end. His outburst resulted in a 39-point effort than included five 3-pointers. Jackson Jr. did it all in just 28 minutes as Memphis’ rotation saw 10 different players play double-digit minutes. The Grizzlies take on the Trail Blazers on the road Sunday.

Doncic hit the 30-point mark for the third time in four games on Friday but his efficiency from the field and long range has taken a hit. He’s still stuffing the stat sheet as a superstar fantasy player and remains the kind of nightly triple-double threat that every fantasy manager desires.
