Jarace Walker vs Nets - Frontcourt Streaming Upside with Toppin Questionable

Jarace Walker enters Sunday's matchup healthy and slated for a rotational forward role off the bench behind Pascal Siakam. His opportunity could expand tonight with fellow forward Obi Toppin questionable due to back soreness. Walker has provided steady frontcourt production through six games, averaging 7.0 points and 6.0 rebounds in 21.5 minutes. Fantasy managers have taken notice, lifting his roster mark to nine percent.

Our models project Walker for 26.4 fantasy points, 13 points, and six rebounds over 28 minutes. Indiana hosts the winless Nets in a high-scoring game environment featuring a 230.5 total. Looking ahead, the Pacers offer three games on next week's slate.

Outlook Moritz Wagner

Moritz Wagner at Pacers — Frontcourt Bench Role in High Total Matchup

Healthy and operating as Brooklyn's primary backup center behind Day'Ron Sharpe, Wagner has carved out steady second-unit minutes. Over his last five games with the Nets, he has provided solid offensive punch, averaging 11.4 points and 3.8 rebounds in 17.4 minutes per game. That efficient scoring surge has fueled a notable spike in fantasy sentiment, with his roster rate climbing to 19%.

For tonight's matchup against Indiana, our models project Wagner for 12 fantasy points, 7 points, and 3 rebounds across 12 minutes. The contest carries an elevated 230.5-point total, though his upside is constrained in a backup capacity. Looking ahead to next week's volume, Brooklyn faces a four-game schedule, making Wagner a low-end streaming option if his frontcourt usage holds.
