Outlook Brayden Burries
Brayden Burries vs. Lakers — Reserve Role Hinges on Herro's Status
Healthy and gaining traction in Milwaukee's rotation, rookie Brayden Burries has seen his rostered rate jump to 59% after posting a 20-point, 10-rebound milestone on November 8. Slated to come off the bench tonight behind Tyler Herro and Ryan Rollins, Burries could see an expanded workload if Herro sits due to his questionable knee contusion. Over his last seven outings, Burries has provided steady fantasy utility with 11.3 points and 6.4 rebounds across 24.9 minutes per game.
In tonight's matchup against the Lakers, our projection expects Burries to produce 11.6 fantasy points and 6 points across 14 minutes. Operating on the second leg of a back-to-back as part of a four-game week for Milwaukee, his floor remains modest unless Herro is ruled out.

Outlook Ja'Kobe Walter
Ja'Kobe Walter at 76ers — Secure Starting Minutes Provide Streaming Appeal
Walter is healthy and projected to start at shooting guard tonight in Philadelphia with Kawhi Leonard remaining sidelined. While his rostered rate has slid down to 36% amid cold shooting (hitting just 32% of his field goals over his last six games), his role remains robust. Walter is averaging 31.2 minutes per game over that span, providing steady peripheral production with 4.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists.
Facing a tough Sixers squad as 10.5-point road underdogs, our models project Walter for 22.9 fantasy points and 12.5 points over 32 minutes. His elevated playing time offers reliable floor spacing and defensive stats. Looking at the weekly slate, this is the third contest of a four-game schedule for Toronto, with only one matchup remaining on Sunday.
