Gabe Vincent's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Los Angeles Lakers guard Gabe Vincent (knee) will sit out Tuesday's action against the Raptors. He's only just returned from a long injury layoff, and the Lakers start a back-to-back on Tuesday, so it makes sense that Vincent's load will be managed. The 27-year-old logged 14 minutes in his comeback game against Brooklyn on Sunday, scoring two points and recording one assist with one steal. Spencer Dinwiddie should see more minutes without Vincent on Tuesday. This is a good fantasy matchup for the Lakers against a team that is ranked 25th in the league with a 117.9 defensive rating.

According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, Los Angeles Lakers guard Gabe Vincent (knee) is expected to rejoin the lineup on Sunday versus Brooklyn. Vincent has been unavailable since Dec. 20 due to knee surgery. The former Heat player has been limited to only five games in his first year in L.A. He's posted 5.4 points, 3.0 assists, and 1.2 steals across 25.4 minutes. Vincent's return gives the Lakers an additional backcourt piece, but he likely won't be making a big impact in fantasy hoops, as there's a lot of competition for playing time.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Gabe Vincent (knee) is not currently traveling with the team ahead of Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. If Vincent continues to progress in his rehab following left knee surgery, however, he could join LA at some point during their six-game road trip that runs through April 3, which is about midway through the fantasy finals. While the 27-year-old volume scorer could be an option for the 39-32 Lakers during the postseason, he'll still most likely be a non-factor for the fantasy playoffs outside of the deepest of leagues with such little time remaining to overcome likely minutes restrictions. Vincent hasn't suited up since December and is producing a mere 5.4 points on 37.5% shooting from the floor, 3.0 assists, and 1.2 steals in 25.4 minutes per game over five appearances this year. Continue ignoring him for fantasy purposes.
