BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 18% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Just in case: Dennis Schroder has missed time of late hitting the protocols but should be back from that as soon as possible. That, along with Marcus Smart also being back after missing a week, will cut Pritchard's upside down a bit, but given what the young man has been able to do recently odds are he keeps boasting a good/large enough role as to consider him a good WW target in most deeper fantasy leagues out there.
From Dec. 18 to Dec. 29 (both included), Pritchard played six games for the Celtics starting two of them and logging 21+ minutes in each of those matches. Then, on New Year's Eve, the playing time came down crashing to just 13 minutes. But no worries. In the six recent games in which he logged more than 20 minutes, Pritchard put up an average 13-4-3 line while shooting nearly 45% from the field and hitting 2.6+ 3PM a day.
Now, for that 13-minute most-recent outing against Portland, Pritchard got to reach an 11-2-1 line while scoring 3 three-pointers on just 4 shots from the field going a perfect 100%. No matter the role, you can count Pritchard hitting triples daily (1.1 3PM on the season) though the shooting percentages have not been sublime (makes sense, considering all the shots he takes are tough-to-make three-pointers). Pritchard has good rebounding numbers for a guard and has been able to get some steals when giving a little bit more playing time recently.
