JAE CROWDER NEWS

Churns out three steals Tuesday Crowder finished with five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), six rebounds, three steals, one assist and one block across 31 minutes Tuesday in the Suns' 103-96 win over the Clippers.

Impact Those who streamed Crowder on Tuesday were probably hoping to get more three-pointers from him, but he got the job done in the steals category. Though he's been rebounding at a steady clip of late -- he's averaging 8.7 per game over his last six contests -- he's still probably best viewed as a more dependable two-category contributor at this stage.

Grabs team-high 14 boards Crowder produced zero points (0-6 FG, 0-5 3Pt), 14 rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 win over Philadelphia.

Impact Crowder was held scoreless for the first time during the campaign, but he salvaged his fantasy production by snatching a season-high 14 rebounds. He also made his presence felt defensively, notching at least one steal and one block in the same game for the 13th time this season. Over his last five games, the veteran forward has averaged 6.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.2 steals in 29.6 minutes.

Double-doubles in win Crowder closed with 10 points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds, six assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Monday's 127-124 victory over Chicago.

Impact While he's an every-night starter on the wing, Crowder normally isn't a major fantasy contributor. This marked his first double-double of the season, and his six assists also set a new season high. Since returning from a four-game injury absence, Crowder is averaging 7.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.3 threes.

Listed probable for Thursday Crowder (wrist) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against Atlanta.

Barring a setback, Crowder should remain in the starting lineup Thursday.

Poor numbers in return Crowder (wrist) tallied three points (1-5 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 25 minutes Tuesday in the Suns' 121-111 win over the Nets.

Impact Aside from the production in the steals category, Crowder did little to excite fantasy mangers in his return from a four-game absence. The Suns immediately reinserted Crowder in the starting five in his first game back, resulting in Cameron Johnson (16 points, three rebounds in 23 minutes) moving to the bench and seeing his playing time significantly cut down. Expect the two forwards to have a relatively even split of the minutes unless one dramatically outperforms the other.
