NBA Player News

Bitim had a wrist issue late in the regular season, but the rookie played through it. The eye injury is far more severe, and it’s worth wondering if he will be ready to go when training camp begins in the fall.

Moody has now made at least three three-pointers in six straight games, good news for fantasy managers who roster for that specific reason. There were other positives to the Warriors’ wing’s performance, as he recorded three assists and two steals. Since the All-Star break, Moody has been close to a top-100 player in category leagues. While his ceiling isn’t as high as Gui Santos’s, Moody is worth rostering in deep leagues as long as Stephen Curry (knee) remains out.

While Santos may have preferred to celebrate his big day with a victory, the Warriors’ wing certainly earned the three-year contract he signed earlier Saturday. The final line against the Lakers wasn’t particularly impressive, but Santos has been a fourth-round player over the past month, according to Basketball Monster. Stephen Curry (knee) still hasn’t resumed on-court workouts, so it’s going to be a bit longer until he’s able to return. If Santos is sitting on the waiver wire, pick him up. The Warriors play three games in Week 19, starting with the Clippers on Monday.
