Alperen Sengun - Posts another double-doubleSengun racked up 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-4 FT), 14 rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 27 minutes during Sunday's 142-110 victory over the Spurs.

ImpactSengun delivered his third double-double over his last five games, but he also contributed in other categories en route to a solid all-around outing. One of the most versatile big men in fantasy, Sengun is averaging 12.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.5 blocks-plus steals since the start of February (14 games).

Kevin Porter Jr. - Dazzles as playmaker SundayPorter finished with 19 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, 13 assists and one steal across 32 minutes during Sunday's 142-110 victory over San Antonio.

ImpactPorter was efficient from the field and extremely active as a playmaker, posting his best assist total of the campaign here. This was his seventh double-double of the season and just his fourth game with double-digit assists, but it's also proof of his potential and a sign of what he can do when he's orchestrating the offense and playing at his best. This was also his first double-double of the year, but most importantly, he seems to be fully recovered from the foot injury that sidelined him for 20 games.

Jalen Green - Shines against San AntonioGreen contributed 31 points (11-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds and two assists in 27 minutes during Sunday's 142-110 victory over the Spurs.

ImpactGreen's contributions were tied almost exclusively to his scoring figures, but the second-year guard played a massive role in the team's 32-point win by posting his first 30-point effort since Feb. 8, when he scored 41 points in a loss to the Kings. Green is averaging 21.4 points per game over his last 10 contests.

Keldon Johnson - Struggles from field SundayJohnson produced eight points (3-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one block in 27 minutes during Sunday's 142-110 loss to the Rockets.

ImpactJohnson had a woeful performance from the field and was the only starter that didn't score in double digits in this 32-point loss. That said, this was probably nothing more than an off-night for the star forward, as Johnson has scored at least 20 points in seven of his last nine appearances. He's averaging 20.3 points per game since the start of February (11 appearances).

Charles Bassey - Efficient from field in lossBassey closed with 14 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block across 25 minutes during Sunday's 142-110 loss to the Rockets.

ImpactBassey missed only three of his 10 shots and was one of the team's top scorers in a game where the entire offense sputtered, as San Antonio ended up suffering a massive 32-point loss. With Zach Collins (undisclosed) and Jeremy Sochan (knee) sidelined Sunday, Bassey started for the first time since Dec. 14, and he's now scored in double digits in three of his last six contests.

Keita Bates-Diop - Scores team-high 17 pointsBates-Diop supplied 17 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), one rebound and one block over 23 minutes during Sunday's 142-110 loss to Houston.

ImpactBates-Diop led the Spurs in scoring in this blowout loss, but this was probably due to a combination of things rather than him assuming a dominant role on offense. In other words, don't expect him to become one of the team's go-to players on offense overnight. Bates-Diop is averaging 10.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game since the start of February (14 games).
