Brice Sensabaugh provided a boost off the bench with 20 points (6-of-11 FGs), three rebounds, one steal, one block and two three-pointers on Friday against the Kings.Ace Bailey (knee) exited with a knee injury in the third quarter, which allowed Sensabaugh to see a boost in minutes. Bailey is being considered "day-to-day", and there doesn't appear to be much concern. However, if Bailey ends up missing Sunday's game against the Rockets, Sensabaugh may be given the opportunity to slide into the starting lineup.
Ace Bailey (knee) will not return to Friday's game against the Kings.Bailey has been ruled out for the remainder of this game, which opens the door for minutes on the win. Brice Sensabaugh should fill the void and provide some value from beyond the arc.
Kyle Filipowski (wrist) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Lakers.Filipowski played 21 minutes in Sunday's double-overtime win over the Bulls, with starting center Jusuf Nurkic logging 38. Filipowski's potential absence would free up minutes for multiple players, including Brice Sensabaugh and Cody Williams. Also, Kyle Anderson could pick up some playing time if he's cleared to return from a back injury.
Isaiah Collier recorded 16 points (4-of-6 FGs, 8-of-11 FTs), four rebounds, nine assists and two steals in Sunday's win over the Bulls.Despite coming off the bench in each of his last four appearances, Collier has provided solid value to managers needing assists. He's recorded seven helpers or more in four straight games and was a key factor in Sunday's double-overtime victory. Collier and Brice Sensabaugh (16/6/1/1 with four three-pointers) played well enough to be part of Will Hardy's closing lineup, with the former ramping up the pace and the latter providing valuable three-point shooting. Collier's return from a hamstring injury has also impacted Walter Clayton Jr., who picked up a second straight DNP-CD on Sunday.
