Jarin Stevenson - Spot start Saturday Stevenson finished Saturday's 87-84 win over Wake Forest with four points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals across 20 minutes.

Impact Stevenson returned to the starting lineup after four comes coming off the bench, taking the spot of Luka Bogavac, who still played despite entering with an undisclosed injury. It was a poor shooting day for the Alabama transfer, which was surprising considering he was coming off a season-best 16 points against SMU. Overall, the role and production is just too inconsistent to warrant much fantasy consideration.

Henri Veesaar - Big scoring day Veesaar provided 25 points (9-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-7 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 34 minutes during Saturday's 87-84 win over Wake Forest.

Impact Veesaar remains one of the most consistent fantasy assets in the ACC, as he's essentially a lock to score in double figures and is a double-double threat every night out. Saturday was his second-best scoring output of the season, and the Tar Heels needed every bit of it in the narrow home victory. North Carolina will now hit the road for matchups against Stanford on Wednesday and Cal on Saturday.

Caleb Wilson - Back to dominant self Wilson registered 22 points (8-9 FG, 6-8 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and two steals in 36 minutes during Saturday's 87-84 victory over Wake Forest.

Impact Wilson snapped a streak of six-straight games with 20 or more points a week ago when he was limited to just 13 in a road matchup against SMU, but he was back to his regular self in the tight victory over Wake Forest. It was Wilson's fourth double-double in five games, and he didn't even need double-digit field-goal attempts to put up 22 points. Wilson's outlook, both as a NBA lottery pick and elite fantasy asset, remains tremendously positive as ACC play gets into full swing. Next up is a pair of road matchups against Stanford (Jan. 14) and Cal (Jan. 17).

Luka Bogavac - Held scoreless in only nine minutes Bogavac supplied zero points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one assist and one steal over nine minutes during Saturday's 87-84 win over Wake Forest.

Impact The return of Seth Trimble, while great for the Tar Heels, has already been negatively impacting Bogavac's value, as he's averaged 5.0 ppg since Trimble was re-introduced to the lineup. To make matters worse, Bogavac has been dealing with an undisclosed injury since late-December, though Saturday was the first time it cost him a start. The end result was a season-low nine minutes and a scoreless outing, which doesn't bode well for the rest-of-season outlook, even once he returns to full strength.
