Outlook Brayden Burries
Brayden Burries vs Celtics — Reserve Value After Breakout Double-Double
Fresh off his first career double-double where he posted 17 points and 10 rebounds, Brayden Burries enters Sunday healthy and firmly in Milwaukee's rotation. With Tyler Herro starting, Burries is slated for a reserve role, though his fantasy ownership spiked to 40% following recent strong production. Over his last six contests, the rookie has averaged 11.2 points and 6.0 rebounds in 22.8 minutes.
For tonight's matchup against the Celtics at Fiserv Forum, our projection expects Burries to generate 19.8 fantasy points, backed by 10 points and five boards across 20 minutes. While Boston's defense presents a tough matchup, fantasy managers can also look forward to solid next week's volume with a four-game slate on tap.

Santi Aldama vs. Pacers: Reserve Frontcourt Role in Four-Game Week
Aldama is healthy and operating in a reserve frontcourt role behind Cooper Flagg and P.J. Washington. Over his first two games with Dallas, he has shown solid per-minute production, averaging 10.0 points and 5.5 rebounds in 13.5 minutes, fueling a rise to 26% rostership. His bench minutes could see a modest boost tonight with backup Morez Johnson Jr. questionable.
Tonight against Indiana, our models project Aldama for 14.9 fantasy points, 7.4 points, and 3.5 rebounds in 15 minutes. While his limited playing time caps his upside in standard leagues, Dallas plays four games this week, making him a viable stream in deep formats.
