NBC SportsGiannis Antetokounmpo amassed 36 points (13-of-21 FGs, 10-of-14 FTs), 15 rebounds, 10 assists and one block in 43 minutes in Saturday's win over the Heat.

Giannis finished Saturday's overtime victory with his second triple-double in as many games and the ninth of the season. His fantasy value has increased substantially since Damian Lillard was ruled out with a blood clot in his calf. In the eight games he's played since then, Giannis has been a top-15 player in eight- and nine-cat formats. During this run, Antetokounmpo has shot 62.6 percent from the field and 72.0 percent from the foul line. For managers whose leagues run through Week 23, the Bucks play four games, starting with the Timberwolves on Tuesday.

NBC SportsKevin Porter Jr. accumulated 24 points (8-of-16 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), 12 rebounds, eight assists and two three-pointers in 30 minutes in Saturday's win over the Heat.

Porter stepped up for the Bucks in a big way Saturday night, finishing two assists shy of a triple-double. The 12 rebounds were a season-high for the guard, who shot 50 percent from the field and only committed one turnover. Rostered in 12 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Porter has provided 12th-round value in eight-cat formats since Damian Lillard was ruled out with a blood clot in his calf. With Milwaukee playing four games during Week 23, Porter is worth a look in deep leagues that will still be active.

NBC SportsBrook Lopez accounted for 17 points (7-of-11 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, one block and one three-pointer in 30 minutes in Saturday's win over the Heat.

Damian Lillard's absence has not impacted Lopez's fantasy value much, as he has been a fifth-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats. That aligns with his season-long value in nine-cat and is two rounds better than his eight-cat production. Lopez has scored at least 17 points in three straight games, and the good news for fantasy managers is that he has four games on his schedule for Week 23.
