Impact Lyles's efficient shooting from beyond the arc helped him record a season-high 13 points off the bench in Wednesday's blowout win over Phoenix. However, the 29-year-old forward is shooting just 33.3 percent from the field and 28.6 percent from three in 2024-25.

Domantas Sabonis - Flirts with triple-double in win Sabonis finished Wednesday's 127-104 victory over the Suns with 11 points (3-4 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, nine assists and one block over 30 minutes.
Impact Sabonis served as more of a ball distributor in the win, falling short of his 22-point performance against the Suns last Sunday. He was in danger of breaking his 10-game double-streak, but he grabbed three quick rebounds during his brief appearance in the fourth quarter.

De'Aaron Fox - Dominant double-double in win Fox registered 29 points (11-17 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), six rebounds, 10 assists, one block and two steals in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 127-104 win over the Suns.

Kevin Huerter - Wakes up with 22 points Huerter totaled 22 points (9-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-5 FT), six rebounds, five assists and three steals across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 127-104 win over the Suns.
Impact Huerter stepped up after DeMar DeRozan (back) exited the game and blew well past his previous season high with 22 points. While Heurter has held on to a starting role with Sacramento, his production has been spotty in recent weeks. DeRozan has inherited a sizable role in the offense that his limits Huerter's involvement, but he has the ability to pop with double-digit totals on occasion.

Ellis and Doug McDermott could see more action while DeRozan is inactive. His next chance to play will come Friday against Minnesota -- the first leg of a back-to-back.

Trey Lyles - Hits two three-pointers Lyles produced eight points (3-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 27 minutes during Monday's 116-96 loss to San Antonio.
Impact It's no secret that Lyles has had a quiet start to the campaign. Through 11 appearances, he's hitting just 28.0 percent from the field and 24.3 percent from beyond the arc. His counting stats have been low too, as he's averaging 4.0 points, 3.2 rebounds and 0.8 three-pointers in 15.9 minutes.

Keegan Murray - Quiet in loss Murray ended with five points (2-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist across 29 minutes during Monday's 116-96 loss to San Antonio.
Impact This was Murray's second dud over his last three appearances, as he couldn't find his rhythm from the field. He's had a bit of a rough start to the campaign so far, averaging 13.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.7 three-pointers in the opening 11 games. He's been particularly cold from beyond the arc, hitting 27.9 percent of his attempts.

DeMar DeRozan - Logs another full stat line DeRozan produced 21 points (8-15 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, six assists, two blocks and one steal across 38 minutes during Monday's 116-96 loss to the Spurs.
Impact DeRozan is one of the team's most consistent scorers and has logged only one game under 20 points. Keegan Murray and Kevin Huerter have provided occasional support but have been more inconsistent than DeRozan, who keeps churning out big numbers in multiple categories.

De'Aaron Fox - Leads team with 24 points Fox had 24 points (9-19 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Monday's 116-96 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Fox has scored 20 or more points in nine of 11 games this season, and while he's converting 47.3 percent of his shots, his three-point conversion rate of 28.2 percent leaves a bit to be desired. He's also underperforming with an average of 4.7 assists.

Domantas Sabonis - Logs 23/12 double-double Sabonis had 23 points (11-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 12 rebounds, four assists and two steals in 36 minutes during Monday's 116-96 loss to San Antonio.
Impact Sabonis led the league in double-doubles last season, and he extended his current streak to 10 games in the loss. While Sabonis delivered a strong fantasy total, he struggled to contain Victor Wembanyama, who out-rebounded him in the paint.
