Memphis faces Milwaukee, seeks 7th straight home win

Memphis aims to continue its six-game home win streak with a victory over Milwaukee

Pat Connaughton - Lands three triples in win Connaughton chipped in 16 points (4-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds and one steal over 23 minutes during Thursday's 114-102 win over the Wizards.

Impact Connaughton scored at least 14 points for the third straight game since returning from injury. His role is locked in at around 22 minutes per night, with him playing as a glue guy off the bench. Across those three games, Connaughton has connected on a combined 11 three-pointers, grabbing 11 boards. He is not on the radar in standard formats, although he can have some value as a streaming option for anyone in need of perimeter scoring.

Serge Ibaka - Scores 11 points in blowout win Ibaka recorded 11 points (4-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 17 minutes during Thursday's 114-102 win over the Wizards.

Impact Ibaka scored 11 points for the second straight game, taking advantage of an inexperienced Wizards frontcourt. The veteran has been able to carve out a consistent role for himself since arriving in Milwaukee, albeit one that is not conducive to elite fantasy production. The return of Brook Lopez only complicates matters further, making Ibaka nothing more than a deeper league consideration.

Bobby Portis - Double-doubles in start Thursday Portis registered 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt), 12 rebounds and one assist in 29 minutes during Thursday's 114-102 victory over the Wizards.

Impact Portis moved back into the starting lineup, replacing Giannis Antetokounmpo who was out with a knee injury. The return of Brook Lopez has seemingly put a pin in what had been a breakout season for Portis. Antetokounmpo's injury likely had an element of rest associated with it, meaning Portis could return to the bench as soon as Saturday against the Grizzlies. He can still provide limited value off the bench, but given what we have seen the past few games, he is really just a streamer in competitive leagues.

Impact Portis has started in all but six games this season for the Bucks.
