Bona has missed the last five games with a sprained left ankle, but is likely to return Monday given his probable listing. He and Guerschon Yabusele will split time down low with the 76ers missing Andre Drummond and Joel Embiid.

White’s streak of three-straight games with at least 35 points ended in his last game Thursday against the Lakers. Still, the 25-year-old point guard has scored at least 25 points in his last two games. White had the rare double-double for him that included at least 10 rebounds. He’s been a top-25 fantasy player in nine-category leagues over the last two weeks.

Mr. Saturday Night. Buzelis set a career-high with 31 points against the Lakers last Saturday and followed up that performance with 28 points against the Mavericks this Saturday. The 20-year-old power forward also had nine rebounds and six assists as he wasn’t far away from a triple-double. Buzelis is still inconsistent as is his playing time, which makes him more of a deep league option, but the overall potential and progress in his rookie campaign are undeniable.

Davis continues to struggle shooting as he’s 12-of-42 from the field over the last two games. It’s still encouraging that the 32-year-old power forward played at least 29 minutes in back-to-back games. Davis has some rust he still needs to shake off, but fantasy managers can’t ask for much more from him given he’s coming back from an adductor injury.

Washington returned after missing two games with an ankle injury. He looked like the same guy as he had 19 points and seven rebounds against the Bulls Saturday. Washington has maintained his production even while playing alongside Anthony Davis. While he benefited from all the injuries the Mavericks have dealt with this season, Washington is a solid player who can still be counted on with Davis back.

Dinwiddie’s play has been exceptional of late as he’s provided top-75 fantasy value over the last two weeks. The 31-year-old point guard has been the primary beneficiary of Kyrie Irving’s absence as he’s getting to run the show in Dallas. Dinwiddie’s scoring can fluctuate, but he’s a reliable assist man with at least seven assists in six of his last seven games. He should be rostered in all leagues at this point.
