| Hernangomez racked up seven points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and two steals across five minutes during Tuesday's 119-84 win over the Spurs. The Scoop:Hernangomez played five minutes of garbage time, ending with a somewhat serviceable nine-category line. While he does have the ability to put up numbers, even in limited minutes, his role is simply too insignificant at this point to warrant any real attention. He is someone to keep an eye on should injuries open up a path to minutes, but for now, managers can focus their attention elsewhere. Mar 22 4:55 ET - | ||||||||
| Willy Hernangomez: Returns to bench Monday Hernangomez will return to the bench for Monday's contest against the Kings, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports. The Scoop: With Jonas Valanciunas (calf) back in the lineup, Hernangomez will return to his normal reserve role. Across the center's first 29 games off the bench this season, Hernangomez is averaging 7.8 points and 5.3 rebounds over 13.2 minutes per game. Mar 7 2:38 ET |
| Willy Hernangomez: Making first start of season Hernangomez will join the first unit for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers. The Scoop: Hernangomez will make his first start of the 2022-23 campaign Wednesday with Jonas Valanciunas (calf) and Larry Nance (ankle) sidelined. He has put up impressive numbers in his last three appearances, averaging 15.0 points, 11.7 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 18.7 minutes and should be considered a top streaming option.

| Willy Hernangomez: Sneaky production off bench Hernangomez recorded nine points (2-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), eight rebounds and three steals over 11 minutes during Saturday's 128-106 loss to the Knicks. The Scoop: Hernangomez saw additional run in the loss, due primarily to the fact Larry Nance was forced from the court due to an ankle injury. While it will be matchup-dependent, Hernangomez could be a player to consider, even in 12-team formats, if Nance misses time moving forward. He has the ability to rack up stats in a hurry and given that Jonas Valanciunas isn't setting the world on fire, managers may want to consider grabbing Hernangomez. Feb 26 3:50 ET |
| Willy Hernangomez: Double-doubles against Lakers Hernangomez logged 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 FT) and 11 rebounds across 17 minutes during Wednesday's 120-102 loss to the Lakers. The Scoop: Larry Nance was sidelined Wednesday due to left groin soreness, and his absence paved the way for Hernangomez to re-enter the rotation after having failed to get off the bench in each of the previous three contests. Nance's injury isn't believed to be a major concern, so he could be available for the Pelicans' first game out of the All-Star break Feb. 23 in Toronto. If that's the case, Hernangomez could find himself right back outside of the rotation, so fantasy managers aren't advised to scoop him up off the waiver wire in the wake of his strong performance off the bench Wednesday.
