Tre Mann Drops Career-High 35 Points In Monday’s Defeat
Tre Mann caught fire from the field during Monday's loss to the Celtics, erupting for a career-best 35 points on 13-for-21 shooting overall, including going 7-for-12 from behind the arc. Mann was able to deliver the massive production even with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) cleared to play, as the two didn't seem bothered by Boston's top-ranked defensive efficiency. Mann has now attempted at least 19 shot attempts -- and 11 threes -- in each of his last three outings, which could be indicative of the enormous offensive upside that he will have over OKC's 10 final games. He's worth a waiver add in all season-long formats ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Orlando.

Tre Mann Will Miss At Least Two Weeks, Putting His Breakout Season On Hold
Tre Mann (back) got off to a fast start this season, averaging 14.1 points, 3.0 assists and 2.9 rebounds per game while playing 24.5 minutes. He was starting to even get some Sixth Man of the Year attention and would be in a great position to step up while LaMelo Ball (calf) is sidelined for two weeks. However, that won't be possible since Mann was diagnosed with "disc irritation" in his lower back and will also miss at least two more weeks. With both Mann and Ball out for a while, Vasilije Micic will likely continue to start at point guard for Charlotte for the next few weeks and is a nice addition from the waiver wire if available. Mann is a hold if possible given his early-season success, but he may be out too long to stash, depending on the size and competitiveness of your league.

Tre Mann Listed As Out For Saturday
Tre Mann (back) is out for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks due to lower back soreness. The 23-year-old has been dealing with back issues recently, which have caused him to miss multiple games. In his absence, Seth Curry and Vasilije Micic are expected to see additional playing time. Mann has been inconsistent of late, posting 19 points against the Brooklyn Nets but just five points versus the Detroit Pistons in his last two outings. His next opportunity to return will be Monday against the Orlando Magic.

Tre Mann Good To Go On Thursday
Tre Mann (back) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Mann is dealing with lower back soreness, but it doesn't appear to be severe enough to hold him out of the lineup. He finished with 19 points and six assists through 25 minutes on Tuesday. He'll continue to be the primary backup point guard which limits his ceiling in fantasy leagues.

Tre Mann Probable For Thursday Night Matchup Against Detroit
Tre Mann (back) is probable heading into Thursday night's game against the Detroit Pistons. Mann had been listed as questionable for Monday's game against Brooklyn but was able to suit up. Given that he's listed probable already it's a positive sign that his back issues are subsiding after missing two games over the past week. Fantasy managers and DFS managers alike should get Mann into their lineups with the 23-year-old averaging 14.8 PPG.
