Lakers' Avery Bradley: Pops for 14 points Friday
Rotowire
Bradley closed Friday's 128-123 overtime win over Toronto with 14 points (4-8 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 25 minutes.
Bradley scored 14 points in the win, the first time he has put up double-digit points in over a month. Despite a somewhat consistent role, Bradley is not particularly close to being a standard league fantasy asset. In deeper formats, managers would need to see more games like this before considering him a worthwhile addition.

Lakers' Avery Bradley: Scoreless in 16 minutes
Rotowire
Bradley (knee) ended with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds and one assist across 16 minutes during Saturday's 124-116 victory over the Warriors.
Bradley was technically active for the Lakers' previous game against the Clippers, but he didn't see any court time in that contest. As such, this was his first opportunity to play since missing four games with a right knee injury. He was invisible on offense against the Warriors but did corral five boards in his 16 minutes. Bradley has started 42 of the 50 games in which he has played this season and could return to that role once he ramps back up, but he hasn't produced the type of output that makes him worth rostering in fantasy.

Bradley is slated to miss his third straight contest due to a right knee effusion. The injury dates back to before the All-Star break, which raises concern that it may be a long term issue.

Therefore, his next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against the Mavericks.

Lakers' Avery Bradley: Won't play Wednesday
Rotowire
Bradley won't play in Wednesday's game against Utah due to a right knee injury, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
The Lakers are labeling Bradley's injury as a "right knee effusion," and he will thus miss his first game since Christmas against Brooklyn. Malik Monk and Wayne Ellington are candidates to see increased usage versus the Jazz on Wednesday in the absence of Bradley.
Bradley will start Wednesday's game at Portland, Harrison Faigen of SBNation.com reports.
The veteran guard came off the bench the past two games -- and was held scoreless -- but will rejoin the starting five with Russell Westbrook (back) missing his first game of the season. Bradley has averaged 7.1 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 25.2 minutes as a starter for the Lakers.
