Kent Bazemore Joins Starting Five
4 years agoGolden State Warriors guard Kent Bazemore will jump into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. Kelly Oubre Jr. (wrist) took a hard fall last game, so the team will take the cautious approach. Bazemore will get the start, while Jordan Poole and Damion Lee will get a boost off the bench. Fantasy managers should consider Bazemore a streaming option against the Rockets horrendous defense. Poole should also have plenty of appeal for this matchup.

Austin Reaves, Kent Bazemore Out Wednesday
3 years agoLos Angeles Lakers shooting guard/small forward Austin Reaves and small forward Kent Bazemore have tested out of the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, but neither were cleared to return to action Wednesday vs. Memphis. Reaves' absence has now been extended to seven games, while Bazemore is missing his sixth consecutive contest, leaving L.A. thin on the wing for the time being. Talen Horton-Tucker and Stanley Johnson have stepped into larger roles without the duo available. Prior to entering the protocols, Reaves had averaged 11 points and 5.3 rebounds across 28.5 minutes in his three latest outings. Fantasy managers will want to keep an eye on Reaves' and Bazemore's availability ahead of Friday's matchup against the Trail Blazers.

Kent Bazemore Returns To Starting Five Friday
3 years agoLos Angeles Lakers small forward Kent Bazemore has been bumped into the starting group for Friday's contest against Minnesota. Bazemore will be making his first start since Nov. 12, having since played sparingly off the bench. Even during his stint as a starter to begin the year, Bazemore scored in double figures just twice, severely limiting his fantasy appeal. Although, the veteran could see a significant minutes bump beginning Friday as Talen Horton-Tucker and Austin Reaves have entered the league's health and safety protocols.
