De’Anthony Melton's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Nets have acquired guard De'Anthony Melton (knee) from the Warriors in exchange for guard Dennis Schroder. Brooklyn will also receive three second-round draft picks. Melton signed with Golden State during the offseason. He played well, averaging 10.3 points and 1.2 steals. Unfortunately, the 26-year-old sustained a torn ACL and underwent season-ending surgery. Melton will be a free agent in the 2025 offseason, so it's unknown if he'll ever suit up for the Nets. But until he stays healthy, his fantasy outlook isn't promising, no matter where he ends up next season.

Golden State Warriors guard De'Anthony Melton (knee) will undergo season-ending ACL surgery, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. Melton was only able to suit up for six games this season, missing seven with both back issues and knee issues. What was first believed to be an ACL sprain caused him to miss the Warriors' last two games. The 26-year-old was performing well for Golden State this season, averaging 10.3 points per game. With Melton out of the lineup, fantasy managers should expect Lindy Waters III to continue getting starts. Waters has put up just eight and six points, respectively, in his two starts and likely will not be a viable fantasy option going forward unless he receives more shooting volume.

Golden State Warriors guard De'Anthony Melton (knee) will miss his seventh game of the season, this time with an ACL sprain instead of the back issues he's been facing periodically. The two-way combo guard was unable to play in their last game against the Memphis Grizzlies as well. Buddy Hield and Brandin Podziemski will see big minutes yet again while Lindy Waters III (knee) could be in the starting lineup again if he's upgraded from questionable.

Golden State Warriors guard De'Anthony Melton (back) will miss a fifth consecutive game on Wednesday versus Boston. He's battling a lower back problem, leaving the Warriors without a versatile backcourt option. Moses Moody, Buddy Hield, and Brandin Podziemski (illness) are all in a position to benefit. Hield, who has scored 20-plus points in four consecutive games, deserves the most attention from fantasy managers. Melton's next chance to return comes on Friday versus Cleveland.

Golden State Warriors guard De'Anthony Melton (back) will have to miss his fourth game in a row while dealing with a strained lower back. The two-way guard experienced a lot of back issues last season with the 76ers, and it caused him to miss more games than he played. Hopefully, the strain isn't too severe and he can return to the court soon. In the meantime, Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody, and Buddy Hield have seen added opportunities. If Stephen Curry (ankle) returns, however, they wouldn't be the strongest streaming candidates.
