We have a straightforward schedule for the rest of this week. All teams in the league have either one or two games remaining.
Let’s look at the remaining schedules for each team and discuss some players to consider streaming. For those in daily lineup leagues, streaming players with favorable schedules can be key to having a winning week. However, be sure to be aware of your league rules. If you have games played cap for the week, then streaming too much might not be ideal.

Shallow League Streaming Options
Norman Powell, SG/SF (46%)
Powell recently missed three games with a leg injury. He scored 20 points over 25 minutes in his return against the 76ers on Sunday. He then followed that up with 22 points over 31 minutes against the Pacers on Monday. Across his last 16 games, he has averaged 16.7 points and 2.8 three-pointers. The Clippers still have two games remaining this week, making Powell an excellent option for those who need a boost in scoring.
Trayce Jackson-Davis, PF/C (40%)
After sitting out Tuesday against the Heat, Jackson-Davis took the floor Wednesday against the Magic. He has been a key member of the Warriors’ rotation down the stretch, averaging 11.1 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks over his last 11 games. Blocks aren’t always easy to come by on the waiver wire, so Jackson-Davis could especially provide a boost in that department with the Warriors set to play two more games.
Rui Hachimura, SF/PF (40%)
Since Hachimura moved into the Lakers’ starting lineup, he has seen a significant increase in his fantasy value. Over the last 23 games in that role, he has averaged 15.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.7 three-pointers. The key is that he logged 31 minutes per game during that span, compared to his season average of 26 minutes per game. With how well he has performed, expect him to remain a starter moving forward.
Rui Hachimura didn’t hit a single 3 vs the Bucks last game.
He hadn’t hit multiple 3’s in a game in nearly 2 weeks.
So what did he do against the Grizzlies?
He decided to hit a CAREER-HIGH 7 of them.

Miles McBride, PG (35%)
OG Anunoby (elbow) has missed five straight games for the Knicks. Not only has McBride started in his place, but he logged at least 40 minutes in all five of those games. With him spending so much time on the floor, he averaged 21.6 points, 3.8 assists, and 4.6 three-pointers. Anunoby might not be back for either of the Knicks’ remaining two games this week, which should leave McBride in a prominent role.

Marvin Bagley III, PF/C (34%)
Bagley was starting at center for the Wizards, then a back injury forced him to miss nine straight games. Richaun Holmes played well in his absence, so when Bagley did return, he did so as a member of the second unit. However, Holmes went down with a toe injury Wednesday against the Nets. Bagley would go on to play 25 minutes in that game, posting 18 points, six rebounds, and one block. With Holmes possibly in line to miss time, Bagley becomes a viable fantasy option again.
Tre Mann, PG/SG (30%)
We’ve likely seen the last of LaMelo Ball (ankle) this season. He hasn’t played since the end of January and there have been no positive updates given regarding his status. That should continue to leave plenty of minutes for Mann moving forward. Since being acquired by the Hornets, Mann has averaged 12.2 points, 4.9 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.6 steals, and 1.4 three-pointers over 18 games. He shouldn’t still be available in this many leagues.

Corey Kispert, SG/SF (28%)
Kispert has started each of the last 10 games for the Wizards. That has resulted in a big increase in playing time, with him logging 34 minutes per game during that span. While he doesn’t usually provide much outside of the scoring department, he has averaged 15.8 points and 3.1 three-pointers in his new role. For those in deeper formats in which Powell is no longer available, consider adding Kispert with the Wizards still having two games remaining.
Jock Landale, C (22%)
The Rockets are making an unexpected push for a playoff spot despite some significant injuries. Alperen Sengun (knee/ankle) remains out, which has shifted Jabari Smith Jr. over to center. Landale has also been asked to play more, resulting in him logging an average of 23 minutes over the last eight games. While his numbers don’t jump off the page, his averages of 10.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.5 blocks during that span still make him a viable addition in deeper formats.
