Lands four triples in win Hauser logged 12 points (4-5 FG, 4-5 3Pt) and two rebounds over 21 minutes during Saturday's 134-125 win over the Hawks.

Impact Hauser did his thing Saturday, going 4-of-5 from the perimeter en route to 12 points. As usual, he did very little else, relying solely on his three-point shooting to buoy his value. Interestingly, Hauser was ahead of Grant Williams in the rotation, something that warrants some attention moving forward. If this is something that sticks, Hauser could be worth a look in deeper formats.

Plays 18 minutes off bench Hauser accumulated six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal over 18 minutes during Friday's 115-105 loss to the Nets.

Impact Hauser's minutes have tanked recently, and this was his largest workload since he played 22 minutes Feb. 15 against the Pistons. With Robert Williams tweaking his left hamstring, the Celtics could go with some smaller lineups if Williams misses time and that could potentially benefit Hauser.

Slides back to bench Hauser will not start Wednesday's game against the Pistons.

Impact Hauser started four of Boston's last five games with Jaylen Brown (face) sidelined, but he will rejoin the reserves with Marcus Smart (ankle) back in action even though Brown will remain out. Over his last five games, Hauser has averaged 15.2 points and 5.2 rebounds while shooting 53.7 percent from beyond the arc.

Sends game into overtime Hauser logged 15 points (6-12 FG, 3-8 3Pt), nine rebounds, two assists and one steal across 39 minutes during Tuesday's 131-125 overtime loss to the Bucks.

Impact The Wisconsin native kept Boston's hopes alive against Milwaukee on Tuesday by hitting a last-second three to tie the game and send it into overtime. Hauser was in the starting lineup for the fourth time over Boston's past five matchup and has scored in double figures in each of those contests. During that stretch, he's averaging 15.2 points and 5.2 rebounds while shooting 53.7 percent from three. His role will surely diminish when Boston returns to full strength, but Hauser has proven, on multiple occasions this year, that he can provide a major spark when given even a small opportunity off the bench.

Ties career high with six threes Hauser contributed 20 points (7-12 FG, 6-11 3Pt) and one steal in 31 minutes during Sunday's 119-109 victory over the Grizzlies.

Impact The six made threes tied Hauser's career high, while the 20 points was his best performance since he dropped 24 on the Pistons on Nov. 9. The second-year forward has scored in double digits in four straight games, starting three of them, and he should continue to have value leading up to the All-Star break as the Boston roster deals with multiple injuries.

Starting Friday Hauser is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Hornets, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Impact Hauser is starting in place of Jaylen Brown (face) who is expected to be sidelined at least a week, so he could potentially be in line for some more. He recorded 15 points, 6.0 rebounds and one assist across 31.3 minutes in his only other start this season.

Returns to second unit Hauser will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against Philadelphia, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Impact Hauser saw the spot start Monday with Jaylen Brown absent from the contest due to illness, but he will return to the bench with Brown active. Despite the demotion, Hauser could still be in line for a larger role Wednesday with Al Horford (knee) and Robert Williams (ankle) sidelined.

Drains five threes in spot start Hauser ended Monday's 111-99 victory over the Pistons with 15 points (5-10 FG, 5-9 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and one block across 31 minutes.

Impact With Jaylen Brown (illness) unavailable, Hauser made his the first career start and was the surprise scoring star of the first half, putting up all 15 of his points. The five made threes were his highest total since Nov. 16, and while his role off the bench tends to be erratic at best, the second-year forward continues to shoot well when called upon.

Why Celtics' Jayson Tatum says Sam Hauser is 'more than just a shooter' Sam Hauser has slumped since a recent hot start, but multiple Celtics say he's improving as a basketball player.

Efficient off bench in loss Hauser finished Monday's 113-98 loss to the Magic with 13 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block across 19 minutes off the bench.

Impact It's the first time Hauser has scored in double digits since Dec. 21 against the Pacers, and the first time he's drained more than two three-pointers in a game since Nov. 28 against the Hornets. The second-year forward isn't providing any kind of consistent production from the Celtics' second unit, and it would take injuries ahead of him on the depth chart to put him on the fantasy radar.

Ends cold shooting spell Hauser provided 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), six rebounds, one block and two steals across 18 minutes during Wednesday's 117-112 loss to Indiana.

Impact Hauser tallied double-digit points for the first time since Nov. 28. The second-year forward was averaging 3.5 points and 2.3 points on 31.0 percent shooting from the field and 24.3 percent from three in 13.3 minutes across his last 10 games. Hauser holds some fantasy relevance for deeper leagues, as he is converting on 42.2 of his 4.2 three-point attempts per game on the season.

Scores 14 points off bench Hauser registered 14 points (4-5 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 21 minutes during Sunday's 130-121 victory over the Wizards.

Impact Hauser is not consistent enough to be an asset in fantasy, but he certainly makes his presence felt off the bench for a Celtics team that doesn't have a defined scoring threat in the second unit. Hauser has logged at least 20 minutes in four of his last six outings and is averaging 8.5 points while shooting 57.7 percent from three-point range in that span.
