He posted 52 points, 24 rebounds and 8 blocks on Wednesday, but his value was already priced in.
Wembanyama is ranked second overall in fantasy and projected for 55.9 fantasy points a game. He carries a 34.8 per cent usage rate and 54.4 per cent true shooting over 8 games this season. San Antonio has no games left this week and none next week either, so his next appearance will come later in the schedule. He remains a top-tier asset in all formats.
What to do
• Hold Wembanyama as a top-five asset in nine-category and points leagues.
• Keep him rostered through the Spurs' quiet stretch, as his value remains elite.
• Do not drop anyone of value to chase his line, as his rank was already set before Wednesday.
