Iffy for Friday Duarte (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Suns.

Impact Duarte did not play in the team's last game after starting the previous four games, but he wasn't given an injury tag. Duarte is now listed as questionable for Monday's In-Season Tournament quarterfinal with left knee soreness, which could be an explanation for him not being featured against the Bulls. Then again, Duarte posted averages of 4.5 points, 2.3 rebounds and 0.5 assists in 17.3 minutes per game over those four starts, so the team may have just been trying out a new rotation.

Duarte responded with his best performance of the year fueled by an efficient showing from beyond the arc. He's averaging 4.5 points in 13.4 minutes per game over 11 appearances off the bench this season and will likely revert to that level of production if he reclaims a reserve role upon Huerter's return.

Impact Duarte played double-digit minutes Friday after being held below 10 minutes of playing time in each of his last three appearances. He racked up multiple steals for the first time this year but remained limited on the scoreboard, and he doesn't carry much fantasy upside as long as Harrison Barnes remains healthy.
