James Johnson - Efficient night off bench Johnson amassed 16 points (6-7 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists and five blocks over 22 minutes during Thursday's 129-100 win over the 76ers.
Impact It was a sharp performance from the veteran forward, who had managed only nine points total in the last three games after shifting back to the second unit following Kevin Durant's return to action. The five blocks were a season high for Johnson while the three made threes tied his season high, but his inconsistent production makes him little more than a DFS dart throw for fantasy purposes.

Kyrie Irving - Drops 22 against Sixers Irving recorded 22 points (8-17 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal across 30 minutes during Thursday's 129-100 victory over Philadelphia.
Impact The 29-year-old continues to produce when he's in the lineup, scoring at least 19 points in seven straight games dating back to Feb. 6 and averaging 30.9 points, 6.3 assists, 4.4 boards, 3.9 threes, 1.4 steals and 1.1 blocks over that stretch. Unfortunately for the Nets, Irving has also missed eight games in between due to his vaccination status and inability to play in New York City.

Seth Curry - Strong shooting in win Curry produced 24 points (10-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt), one rebound, two assists, one block and five steals in 27 minutes during Thursday's 129-100 win over Philadelphia.
Impact It was a revenge game for the veteran shooting guard, who was one of the other pieces sent to Brooklyn in the James Harden-Ben Simmons trade. Curry had gone three straight games without scoring in double digits prior to Thursday's performance, but in 11 games for the Nets, he's averaging 15.8 points, 3.2 boards, 3.2 assists, 3.0 threes and 1.0 steals.

Kevin Durant - Big double-double against Sixers Durant closed Thursday's 129-100 victory over Philadelphia with 25 points (10-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 14 rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals in 32 minutes.
Impact Ben Simmons (back) was expected to get the brunt of the fans' ire in his return to Philadelphia, but instead Durant got the Sixers' home crowd to boo them instead by scoring 18 points in the first half en route to a blowout win for the Nets. It's Durant's first double-double in four games since returning to the lineup from a knee injury, and over that stretch he's averaging 26.8 points, 6.8 boards, 6.5 assists, 2.5 threes and 1.0 blocks.
