The NBA season is evolving fast, and several lightly rostered players are carving out meaningful roles that can boost fantasy lineups. Below are emerging options worth adding while they’re available.
Point guards
Ajay Mitchell, PG — Oklahoma City Thunder (49.1% rostered) Mitchell has taken advantage of perimeter injuries to lock in steady minutes. He’s been a consistent upper-teens scorer, chips in roughly seven combined rebounds and assists, and contributes steals and 3-pointers. If he keeps this role, he’s a reliable fantasy floor.
Davion Mitchell, PG — Miami Heat (33.9% rostered) Davion has developed beyond a pure 3-and-D profile into a guard who can defend and distribute. He’s produced multiple games with three-plus steals and several outings with eight or more assists. As a streamer he offers low double-double upside and frequent thefts in category formats.
Shooting guards
Ayo Dosunmu, SG — Chicago Bulls (12.8% rostered) Even after a brief quad absence, Dosunmu has settled into a steady role with Coby White sidelined. He’s been an efficient, upper-teens scorer who adds a few triples and modest boards and assists — useful in shallow and deeper leagues alike.
