Fantasy basketball fast break: Wemby's minutes restriction, KAT's new offensive role, and more
"February has become one of the league's most meaningful months -- a stretch where history, milestones and momentum tend to collide. Few players embody that better than Stephen Curry. Six of his 15 career 50-point games have come this month, including four of the five highest-scoring performances of his career, placing him behind only Wilt Chamberlain in terms of February dominance."
"Meanwhile, February continues to frame the remarkable rise of Luka Doncic, who turns 27 later this month having already scored more points than all but three players in league history before that age. His milestone-filled season has also revived discussion around the historic trade that sent him and Anthony Davis to new teams, still the only mid-season deal ever involving two reigning All-NBA players."
"Wembanyama averaged 27.7 MPG in January while posting 23.6 PPG, 10.2 RPG and 2.2 BPG. When given adequate playing time, he has been elite from a fantasy perspective. In 63 career games with at least 32 minutes, he's averaged 25.0 PPG, 12.3 RPG, 4.3 APG and 4.0 BPG. However, with the Spurs focused on keeping him healthy as they look to make a deep playoff run, his workload continues to be managed. That reality limits his ceiling, and fantasy managers will need to adjust expectations if the restriction remains in place for the rest of the season."

His milestone season revived discussion of the historic trade that moved him and Anthony Davis mid-season. Doncic is the only player to average at least 25 points, eight rebounds and eight assists for his career. Victor Wembanyama remains on a minutes restriction, limiting his ceiling and fantasy value despite elite per-minute production.
