Field-goal percentage and rim finishers

Week 5 wraps up with eight NBA games packed with fantasy implications—who will boost your lineup on Sunday’s crucial slate? Key stream options like Keldon Johnson, Anthony Black, Terance Mann, Andre Drummond, and Neemias Queta could decide close matchups, especially for managers eyeing the Sunday-Monday back-to-back schedule featuring Brooklyn, Cleveland, Miami, Phoenix, Portland, Toronto, and Utah. Is it worth the risk to trust streaky Nets like Ziaire Williams and Day'Ron Sharpe, or are San Antonio’s Julian Champagnie and Portland’s Caleb Love better bets for last-minute points?

Josh Lloyd zeroes in on actionable streamer targets for Yahoo and ESPN points and category leagues, breaking down specialists for assists, threes, steals, blocks, rebounds, and more. Find out which unexpected guards and bigs offer the most value, why free throw and field goal percentages remain tough to stream, and how coach rotations and player absences—like Victor Wembanyama and Tyler Herro—open new opportunities. Will shrewd streaming moves push your fantasy squad to victory before Week 6 begins?
