Outlook Nolan Traore

Nolan Traore at Hawks — Starting Role Drives Strong Streaming Appeal

Nolan Traore is slated to start at point guard tonight with Egor Demin sidelined by a leg injury. The sophomore guard has capitalized on the extra opportunity, highlighted by a 16-point performance against Charlotte on Nov. 4 while averaging 13.3 points over his last seven games. Fantasy managers have taken notice, driving his roster rate up to 30%.

For tonight's matchup against Atlanta, our models project Traore for 20.6 fantasy points and 11 points in 24 minutes. An elevated 225.5 total against the Hawks presents ample transition chances to pad his peripherals. Looking at the weekly schedule, tonight marks the front end of a back-to-back set before the Nets travel to Dallas tomorrow.

Breakdown Nic Claxton

    Overview

  • I couldn't find any stats of this player even playing a game. This is most likely due to a mispelling. Try typing in the partial player name and let autocomplete fill in his name for you to avoid this happening again. The other possible reason is that he hasn't played in the past 30 days which makes it impossible for me to assign him a value.
