Royce O'Neale Agrees on Extension
Royce O'Neale has agreed to a four year extension with the organization, according to Adrian Wojnarowski. The deal is worth $36 million, so the Jazz are making a big investment in the former undrafted forward. O'Neale has been a reliable player in the Jazz rotation, but belongs on the waiver wire in most fantasy formats. He has some deep league appeal, but isn't a great fantasy option.

Royce O'Neale Likely To Return Versus Charlotte
Royce O'Neale (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday night against the Hornets. The veteran, who has averaged a career-high 10.5 points this season, missed the Suns' previous six games because of a sprained ankle. While O'Neale will likely get on the floor, he could have trouble doing anything meaningful for fantasy managers, considering Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal are healthy and active.

Royce O'Neale Will Not Play On Tuesday
Royce O'Neale (ankle) will not be available for Tuesday's game against Memphis. He will sit out at least one contest after spraining his left ankle in the previous game against Golden State. Luckily for the Suns, they will likely have Devin Booker (groin) and Grayson Allen (concussion) back in the rotation on Tuesday. Josh Okogie, who logged 31 minutes on Saturday against the Warriors, will also help to cover for O'Neale.
