Dennis Schröder's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Brooklyn Nets guard Dennis Schroder (Achilles) will suit up for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He was listed as questionable heading into this one, and with Brooklyn not going anywhere near the postseason, there was a chance he'd be sidelined. However, Dennis Smith Jr. (hip) is now doubtful, so Schroder is a lock for all fantasy lineups.

Brooklyn Nets guard Dennis Schroder has moved up into the starting five for just the second time in his Brooklyn tenure so far. Ben Simmons (leg) was upgraded to available for this contest, but he won't be retaining his starting role according to the Nets' official Twitter account. Including his time in Toronto, during the 34 starts that Schroder has received this year, he's averaged 14.7 points, 6.6 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.5 made threes, 1.1 steals, and 1.9 turnovers per game. Schroder may be gaining back some of his fantasy value now that Kevin Ollie has taken over as the head coach and he's willing to keep experimenting with the starters.

Toronto Raptors guard Dennis Schroder has been traded to the Brooklyn Nets, along with Thaddeus Young, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. The Raptors received Spencer Dinwiddie who is expected to be bought out and enter the free agent market shortly thereafter. This move ended up looking like a money-saving deal that freed up even more minutes for Immanuel Quickley, Bruce Brown, and newly acquired Ochai Agbaji. From the Nets' point of view, Schroder gives them a similarly talented distributor and a better shooter to complement Mikal Bridges, Cam Thomas, and Cameron Johnson. Schroder could see an increase in assists since he should at least see a similar amount of minutes.
