Hawks' Dyson Daniels: Modest production continues
Rotowire
Daniels closed Saturday's 126-119 loss to the Hornets with 11 points (5-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two steals in 31 minutes.
Daniels continues to struggle on the offensive end, appearing more passive than usual. He has scored no more than 11 points in five straight games, a worrying trend for fantasy managers. While scoring is certainly not one of his strengths, it does seem as though he is more hesitant than usual, often not even looking at the basket despite being in a scoring position. His peripheral production, as always, is enough to buoy his fantasy value to the point that he continues to put up top 80 numbers despite averaging just 10.5 points per game in 14 appearances over the past month.
Daniels ended Tuesday's 127-115 victory over Miami with two points (1-4 FG), one rebound, five assists and one steal across 22 minutes.
Daniels continues to offer very little on the offensive end of the court, scoring in single digits for the fifth time in the past seven games. While his peripheral contributions have been adequate, he appears to have lost some of his confidence when it comes to scoring the basketball. His reluctance to want to score is certainly impacting his fantasy value, as he has been barely a top-80 player in seven games over the past two weeks.
