This makes three excellent games in a row for Roberts, who didn't seem thrown by Greivis Vasquez (ankle) returning to the starting lineup. He's worth plugging into fantasy lineups, with the understanding that New Orleans only has one more game on Wednesday.

Davis is done for the year, but of course that only includes one more game on Wednesday vs. Dallas. Robin Lopez also picked up some extra minutes, notching 10 points and 12 boards, and both players should be locked into active fantasy lineups.

There is no telling when Vasquez (day-to-day) will return, so if Roberts is floating around on your wire it's time to pick him up unless you're stacked.

The Hornets (and Gordon) would love for him to show well at the end of the year to enhance his nearly non-existent trade value, and that represents a silver lining for his chances to finish out the year on the court.

With Anthony Davis out for the year the window is open for Lopez to produce and he is worth adding in most formats.

He played just 10.9 minutes per game this year and hasn't been in any game action since March. If Thomas is healthy, he might actually play with the Hornets running out of bodies. That said, there's no reason to pay attention to this news item.

Greivis Vasquez (ankle) is out Friday and no lock to return Sunday. That leaves an exciting opportunity for Roberts, who has played 29 or more minutes six times this season. In those games, he's averaged 14.5 points, 8.1 assists and 2.3 rebounds. Owners looking for plug-n-play opportunities should make the add.
