Career-high eight assists Queen produced 13 points (5-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two blocks in 25 minutes during Saturday's 126-119 loss to San Antonio.

Impact Queen continues to make a push for consistent playing time, scoring double digits for the third straight game, despite coming off the bench. The coaching staff seems resistant to putting Queen in the starting lineup, instead opting to run with Kevon Looney as the opening center. Nonetheless, Queen has shown enough over the past three games to warrant serious fantasy attention, even in standard leagues.

Transformative performance Queen recorded 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists and four steals across 18 minutes during Tuesday's 116-112 victory over the Hornets.

Impact Queen overcame a slow start Tuesday, helping lift New Orleans to its first win of the season. Barely used during the first half, Queen played the entire fourth quarter, providing plenty of energy on both ends of the floor. The Pelicans need all the production in the world right now, a fact that shouldn't be lost on fantasy managers. While there are no guarantees, Queen could be worth a speculative pickup ,just in case this performance earns him more minutes moving forward.

Quiet outing in loss Queen recorded four points (1-2 FG, 2-2 FT) and two rebounds over seven minutes during Sunday's 137-106 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Queen saw his minutes drastically decrease with the return of Kevon Looney (knee). He is likely buried in the depth chart behind Yves Missi, Deandre Jordan, Zion Williamson and Saddiq Bey, and will see very limited time on the court moving forward as long as everyone is healthy.

Grabs eight boards in loss Queen ended Wednesday's 122-88 loss to the Nuggets with four points (2-5 FG, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds and one steal over 14 minutes.

Impact Queen saw his playing time decrease after Zion Williamson (foot) returned from a one-game absence, but was still able to pull down eight rebounds in 14 minutes. Benches cleared late in the second half due to the blowout nature of the game, but Queen's next opportunity to produce would be Friday against the Clippers, which marks the kickoff of the in-season NBA Cup.
