Dario Saric 16 Points in Loss
Dario Saric was strong on Saturday for the Sixers as they fell short to a strong Pacers team. Saric, the 2nd year player from Croatia is quietly having a strong season as the third guy behind Philly’s two superstars ahead of him. Saric is averaging 14 points and seven rebounds on the season with strong shooting numbers for a stretch four type player. Saric may never develop into a star because if and when Markelle Fultz returns to the team, he will probably ascend above, but Saric is no slouch and will be a key part of this team moving forward. For the foreseeable future, there are no worries putting saric in your lineup.

Dario Saric Heading To Denver
Dario Saric agreed to a two-year, $10.6 million contract with the Denver Nuggets on Saturday. Saric appeared in 64 games with the Golden State Warriors last season, averaging 8.0 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.3 assists while shooting 37.6% from behind the arc. With the Nuggets losing Kentavious Caldwell-Pope in free agency, adding the 30-year-old will help lessen the blow. His presence will also bolster a bench that wasn't very deep during the 2023-24 campaign. With that said, Saric should get a few starts in 2024-25. Yet, he's not anticipated to be a consistent fantasy producer.

Dario Saric Questionable Versus Portland
Dario Saric (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Portland Trail Blazers. Saric has been a solid bench player for Golden State, but he has missed the last 11 games while dealing with right-knee soreness. The Warriors would benefit from Saric's return since Draymond Green is also questionable for the game, and depth may be weakened. However, it is unlikely Saric will have much of an impact when he does return. Names like Trayce Jackson-Davis and Jonathan Kuminga will have more fantasy value than Saric, and that only increases if Saric misses another game.

Dario Saric Won't Play On Tuesday
Dario Saric (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. It appears Saric is going to miss at least one more game due to right knee soreness. When healthy, Saric hasn't been a big factor in the rotation or fantasy basketball this season. He'll likely fall behind Trayce Jackson-Davis and Kevon Looney once he is cleared to play again.

Dario Saric Sidelined Against Charlotte
Dario Saric (knee) has been downgraded on Friday and will not play against the Charlotte Hornets. He was originally listed as questionable with a knee issue but has since been ruled out along with Jonathan Kuminga (knee). Both of them were enduring knee soreness and it seems as though the pain was enough to sideline them. Saric missing time won't shake up the rotation all that much as Trayce Jackson-Davis should continue to start in Kuminga's absence while Brandin Podziemski and Moses Moody are the first two off of the bench. Kevon Looney will probably see a bit of time, but not enough to make him a must-play.
