Yaxel Lendeborg posted 31 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists, one block, one three, three turnovers and a 9-for-19 shooting line with 12-for-13 free throws in 31 minutes as a starter in Golden State's 134-114 win over Denver on Monday, October 26.

The performance delivered 54.4 fantasy points, well above the 37.5 a game over his previous 3 games, and raises his nine-category value to -0.43 with projected 35.5 fantasy points a game. His 22.6% usage rate and 57.2% true shooting give him room to maintain production in both formats.

Lendeborg's 31 points represented a significant jump from the 18.7 a game over his previous 3 games, when he averaged 8.3 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.3 steals, 0.3 blocks and 2.7 threes in 34.2 minutes. His 12-for-13 showing at the free-throw line boosted his efficiency after shooting 66.7% from the stripe over those three outings. The 31 minutes matched his established role as a full-time starter.

Golden State has no games left this week and no games next week, which limits immediate fantasy utility. His season-to-date line of 21.8 points, 9.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists in 33.3 minutes a game across 4 games shows the point-forward archetype producing across categories. His 57.2% true shooting supports the offensive output, though his free-throw shooting remains a concern in nine-category formats.

What to do

• Add Lendeborg immediately in all formats if he is available, as his starter's role and multi-category production make him a strong hold.

• Monitor Golden State's schedule closely, as the team has no games remaining this week or next week.

• Consider Lendeborg a fantasy points asset given his projected 35.5 fantasy points a game and his ability to contribute across points, rebounds and assists.
