Outlook Jamal Shead
Jamal Shead vs MEM - Playmaking Upside with Quickley Questionable
Jamal Shead enters Monday's matchup healthy as Toronto's primary backup point guard, though starter Immanuel Quickley remains questionable with a hamstring injury. Shead has capitalized on expanded opportunities, highlighted by a career-high 16-assist performance last week that pushed his recent average to 8.2 assists per game. Fantasy managers have taken note of his elite distribution, with his roster rate jumping to 23%.
For tonight's home tilt against Memphis, our projection expects Shead to log 24 minutes, contributing 6 points, 5 assists, and 17.4 fantasy points in a game featuring a healthy 228.5 projected total. With Toronto slated for a four-game week, Shead offers quality streaming appeal while Quickley's availability remains in question.

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.
