Top Performers
Donte DiVincenzo, SG, Knicks (60.5% rostered in ESPN leagues): DiVincenzo has been on fire over the past two weeks, averaging 21.8 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.7 steals, 0.8 blocks, and 5.0 3-pointers per game. He’s been getting plenty of playing time from coach Tom Thibodeau and is a must-add for any fantasy team.
