Slides out of rotation Biyombo played one minute and 12 seconds in Monday's 127-124 win over the Bulls, missing his only field-goal attempt and recording no other statistics.

Impact Though the Bulls were able to make the final score respectable thanks to a rally late in the fourth quarter, Biyombo was still able to pick up what amounted to garbage-time run while the Suns were resting key rotation pieces. After Biyombo put himself on the fantasy radar with averages of 14.1 points, 10.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.9 blocks and 0.7 steals in 27.7 minutes per game over the Suns' final seven contests of January, any value he held has disappeared entirely since Deandre Ayton overcome an ankle injury. With Ayton starting in each of the team's first four games of February, JaVale McGee has settled in as the clear top backup at center, while Biyombo has played just 17 minutes in total during that same four-game stretch.

Back to bench Tuesday Biyombo will come off the bench Tuesday against the Nets, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact With Deandre Ayton (ankle) returning, Biyombo will head back to a reserve role. When coming off the bench, he's averaged 10.8 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.2 blocks in 21.4 minutes.

Remains in starting lineup Biyombo is starting Sunday's game against the Spurs.

Impact Although JaVale McGee will be available Sunday following a two-game absence, Biyombo will make a third consecutive start in place of Deandre Ayton (knee). He's averaged 13.0 points and 9.0 rebounds in 29.0 minutes per game across his last two appearances.

Another double-double in win Biyombo racked up 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-5 FT) and 12 rebounds in 29 minutes during Friday's 134-124 victory over Minnesota.

Impact Starting again in place of Deandre Ayton (ankle) and JaVale McGee (knee), Biyombo produced his third double-double in the last four games, as he continues to emerge as an unlikely streaming option in season-long leagues. Once Ayton and McGee are back, Biyombo will likely sink back to a lesser role, but fantasy managers should feel free to ride out this run for as long as they can.

Makes impact as starter Biyombo amassed 12 points (4-9 FG, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, three blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 105-97 victory over the Jazz.

Impact With Deandre Ayton (ankle) and JaVale McGee (knee) both missing the contest, Biyombo entered the starting five for the first time this season. The big man wasn't able to extend his double-double streak to three games, but he did tie a season high with three blocks. Biyombo has gained fantasy relevance with per-game averages of 15.0 points, 10.0 boards and 1.2 blocks over his past five contests, though Ayton's eventual return will likely cut into his playing time considerably.

Enters starting five Biyombo will start Wednesday's game against Utah.

Impact The 29-year-old has averaged 15.8 points, 11.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals off the bench over the past four games, and he'll make his first start of the season with Deandre Ayton (ankle) and JaVale McGee (knee) unavailable. Rudy Gobert (calf) is sitting out Wednesday for the Jazz, so it's a solid matchup for Biyombo on the road.

Leads bench with double-double Biyombo registered 16 points (7-10 FG, 2-6 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and one block across 31 minutes during Monday's 115-109 win over Utah.

Impact Biyombo now appears to be the best pivot for Deandre Ayton (calf). Although JaVale McGee has drawn the starts in Ayton's absence, Biyombo has outproduced his teammate with three double-doubles in his past four games. The veteran's numbers will take a hit upon Ayton's return, but his excellent lines over the past two weeks imply a clear shift in the frontcourt rotation.

JANUARY 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ties career high with 21 points Biyombo posted 21 points (9-12 FG, 3-3 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal across 30 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 victory over the Pacers.

Impact Deandre Ayton missed the contest with an ankle injury, and JaVale McGee was tabbed for the start. It was Biyombo who most benefitted, however, as the veteran logged 30 minutes off the bench and tied a career-best mark with 21 points. He also grabbed a team-high 13 boards to finish with his second double-double in his past three contests. Biyombo has been outstanding since the Suns signed him in late December, averaging 10.1 points (on 70.2 percent shooting), 6.9 boards and 1.3 blocks over eight games. However, his fantasy value is largely tied to the health of Ayton and McGee, as Biyombo is no better than the third option at center when the aforementioned players are available.

Posts big double-double off bench Biyombo had 17 points (8-10 FG, 1-4 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 25 minutes during Monday's 121-107 win over San Antonio.

Impact JaVale McGee got the start at center for Phoenix with Deandre Ayton (ankle) unable to play, but Biyombo was the Suns' most effective player down low. The veteran shattered his season high with 14 boards and also surpassed his previous campaign-best mark with 17 points. Ayton's return will likely mean less opportunities for Biyombo, but the big man has mostly played well when given the opportunity to take the court this season.
