Royce O'Neale Scores Career-High 20 Points
4 years agoUtah Jazz forward Royce O'Neale had a career night on Tuesday, leading the team with 20 points in a 108-94 win over the Knicks. The Jazz had a bunch of people struggling, including Donovan Mitchell who went 3-for-15 from the floor, so they needed somebody to step up and O'Neale answered the call. He shot 7-for-12 from the field and 2-for-5 from downtown with a 4-for-5 success at the line, adding six rebounds, two assists, and one block. This was only the fourth time this season that O'Neale has managed to drop 10-plus points, so don't expect him to repeat the performance anytime soon.

3 months agoPhoenix Suns forward Royce O'Neale (ankle) will not be available for Tuesday's game against Memphis.

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.

Royce O'Neale Moves Into Starting Five
3 months agoPhoenix Suns forward Royce O'Neale will shift into the starting five ahead of Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This was the expected move with Devin Booker (groin) unavailable for this game. It was either between O'Neale or Grayson Allen, but head coach Mike Budenholzer has decided to go with the veteran forward. O'Neale has been playing well lately, so a move to the starting five should only boost his fantasy value. Fantasy managers looking for help on Saturday should take a look at O'Neale. His value figures to stay boosted until Booker is able to get back on the court.
