Gets the start DiVincenzo will start against the Clippers on Tuesday, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Impact Andrew Wiggins is out for personal reasons but will likely be back after the All-Star break, according to head coach Steve Kerr. With DiVincenzo starting alongside Jordan Poole in the backcourt, Klay Thompson will move to small forward.

Scores 17 points off bench DiVincenzo posted 17 points (6-9 FG, 5-8 3Pt), three assists, two steals and one rebound in 25 minutes during Monday's 135-126 win over Washington.

Impact DiVincenzo bounced back from a five-point performance during Saturday's loss to the Lakers by notching his fifth double-digit scoring outing over his last six games. During that stretch, he's averaging 13.5 points, 3.0 assists and 1.5 steals while shooting 53.7 percent from deep (6.8 attempts per game). As long as Stephen Curry (leg) remains sidelined, DiVincenzo can be expected to garner a major reserve role for the Warriors, who are struggling to stay relevant in the Western Conference without their MVP candidate.

Scores in double digits again DiVincenzo amassed 18 points (6-12 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three steals, two rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 125-122 loss to Portland.

Impact Though he's continued to come off the bench in both of the first two games of Stephen Curry's (lower leg) indefinite absence, DiVincenzo has offered some useful production while seeing a slight uptick in playing time. He's averaged 16.0 points, 4.5 assists, 4.5 three-pointers, 3.0 rebounds and 1.5 steals in 29 minutes per game between those two contests, and though his 50 percent success rate from three-point land probably isn't sustainable, DiVincenzo shouldn't see his production dip too significantly if his shooting falls off. He looks like a strong pickup in 12-team category leagues where he's still available.

Passable production Monday DiVincenzo ended Monday's 141-114 victory over Oklahoma City with 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-8 3Pt), four rebounds and seven assists across 28 minutes.

Impact DiVincenzo was able to cobble together a serviceable fantasy line Monday, thanks in part to the fact the game descended into garbage time. With Stephen Curry (knee) likely to be sidelined until March, DiVincenzo could be in for a small bump over the coming weeks. His overall value is typically reliant on assists and steals, although his ability to score from the perimeter is proving to be a consistent part of his game. He won't be for everyone but probably should be rostered in most 12-team formats.

Curry injures left leg leading Warriors over Mavs 119-113

Sneaky double-double in win DiVincenzo chipped in 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three rebounds, 11 assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 129-117 victory over the Raptors.

Impact DiVincenzo was quietly productive once again Friday, continuing what has been an intriguing period. Despite the return of Stephen Curry, DiVincenzo has been able to maintain 12-team value, proving to be one of the more significant additions this season. He has scored double-digits in three of his past four games, tallying a combined 25 assists and 11 three-pointers. Of course, the eventual return of Andrew Wiggins (illness) will complicate things, but for now, DiVincenzo is certainly worth a look.

Scores 17 in spot start DiVincenzo closed Friday's 120-114 victory over the Cavaliers with 17 points (5-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, four assists and four steals over 35 minutes.

Impact DiVincenzo had a solid night from beyond the arc, where he scored nine of his 17 points. He also made an impact across the board by swiping a season-high four steals. DiVincenzo is averaging 10.7 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.3 steals through nine January matchups.

In starting lineup DiVincenzo will start at small forward in Friday's contest against the Cavaliers, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Impact With the Warriors resting a plethora of their regular starters, DiVincenzo is set to take on a bigger role than usual. He has averaged 10.2 points, 5.9 rebounds and 4.3 assists across 33.9 minutes in 11 starts this season.

JANUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 22 in expanded role DiVincenzo registered 22 points (7-17 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and two steals across 25 minutes during Friday's 144-113 victory over the Spurs.

Impact The Warriors secured a 31-point win over the Spurs, so DiVincenzo was among several reserves that logged more minutes than usual. This was DiVincenzo's best scoring mark of the season, and while he's not expected to score at this rate going forward, he's still managed to score at least 15 points in four of his last nine outings.

Late addition to starting unit DiVincenzo was a late addition to the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Magic, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Impact In an out-of-nowhere change, Klay Thompson (undisclosed) was announced as a starter, but then DiVIncenzo was spotted taking his place in the starting unit at shooting guard next to Jordan Poole in the backcourt. DiVincenzo is averaging 10.0 points per game over his last six appearances.

Coming off bench with Wiggins back DiVincenzo will come off the bench Saturday against the Magic, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Impact With Andrew Wiggins (illness) returning from a 15-game absence, DiVincenzo will head back to the bench. However, he should remain in an elevated role for the duration of Stephen Curry's (shoulder) absence.

Turns in solid all-around stat line DiVincenzo finished with nine points (4-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt), nine rebounds, four assists and four steals across 34 minutes during Friday's 118-112 victory over Portland.

Impact DiVincenzo didn't have his shot working in Friday's win, but he turned in a solid effort on the boards and showcased his quick hands by racking up a season-high four steals. He's now started each of his team's last seven contests while Andrew Wiggins (illness) returns to health, and he's averaged 12.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.7 steals in 34.3 minutes during that time.

Available Friday DiVincenzo (knee) will play in Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Impact As expected, DiVencenzo will play after being tabbed as probable with right knee soreness. He will likely remain as the team's starting small forward, a role in which he has averaged 12.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.5 assists across 34.2 minutes per game in his last six.

DECEMBER 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to play Friday DiVincenzo is tabbed as probable for Friday's matchup with the Trail Blazers due to right knee soreness.

Impact DiVincenzo has started in each of his last six appearances with Stephen Curry (shoulder) and Andrew Wiggins (illness) out and has averaged 12.5 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.3 steals per game over that stretch. He will likely retain such a role Friday considering both Curry and Wiggins are still out.

DECEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 19 points in win DiVincenzo logged 19 points (5-11 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 112-107 win over Utah.

Impact Although DiVincenzo came into the game with a questionable tag due to a knee issue, he played 39 minutes in Wednesday's win and looked up to speed. The undermanned Warriors are lucky to have DiVincenzo in the fold, as he's responded extremely well in an increased role during the team's rash of injuries.
