Week 24 Playoff Streamer Consideration
It is important to decide who to stream (assuming you can get ahead of your opponents on the wire).
Elements to consider are minutes, performance in the last 6-9 games, and their role (for players resting or injured) alongside their potential upside. You will also need to be very vigilantly looking for players' updates and notes to make the proper moves. Look for superstars and stars alike to be rested for the upcoming NBA playoffs - this will be a difficult week.
Week 24 Playoff Streamer Consideration
Indiana Pacers
Andrew Nembhard (PG/SG)
The Gonzaga product has averaged 15.5 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 7.1 assists during his previous six games. By dishing up a career-high 15 assists on Wednesday night en route to a spectacular fantasy night, he did his best Tyrese Haliburton impression. Since there is no way of knowing when Haliburton will return, Nembhard is a terrific addition for fantasy managers in need of dollars, especially as the Pacers fall farther out of play-in tournament contention.

New York Knicks
Quentin Grimes (SG/SF)
Grimes' playing time and fantasy worth have mainly decreased since the team acquired Josh Hart at the trade deadline in early February, but the second-year wing has had a surprising upswing lately. Grimes' workloads during the last four games have been 38, 38, 36, and 36 minutes.
In line with this uptick in performance, Grimes is averaging 19.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.3 three-pointers, 4.5 assists, and 1.8 steals per game throughout that time frame. Grimes may be able to retain some value until shooting regression inevitability occurs if he keeps receiving more playing time than he has over the previous four games.

Utah Jazz
Talen Horton-Tucker (SG/SF)
In 31 minutes of Friday's 122-114 loss to Boston, Horton-Tucker had 28 points (9-21 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 10-10 FT), eight rebounds, and seven assists.
In addition to his career-high 41 points on Friday, the Iowa State product made the most of the absences of Collin Sexton (hamstring), Jordan Clarkson (finger), and Lauri Markkanen (hand). He led the Jazz in both points and assists for the contest, and he should continue to be a strong fantasy option as long as Utah struggles with injuries and exits the postseason.
