Grabs 13 boards in loss Ware amassed six points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 13 rebounds and two blocks across 19 minutes during Monday's 106-96 loss to Toronto.

Impact Ware logged fewer than 20 minutes for the second straight game, salvaging a quiet night with a team-high 13 rebounds. His role continues to change, seemingly on a nightly basis, making him a hard player to get a read on for fantasy purposes. While he does remain a must-roster player, it is looking like the majority of his value could end being tied to rebounds and blocks only.

Starting Friday Ware will start against the Magic on Friday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact After coming off the bench in four straight games, Ware will return to the first unit against Orlando. In 14 starts this season, the second-year center has averaged 12.9 points, 11.4 rebounds and 1.5 blocks across 26.7 minutes per contest.

Big double-double off bench Ware posted 22 points (8-11 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 118-108 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Ware turned in a double-double, his ninth in 2025-26, while stuffing the stat sheet. The second-year center's fantasy upside is capped by the presence of Bam Adebayo, though Ware has been very productive with averages of 14.3 points, 12.3 rebounds, 1.4 blocks and 1.0 steals in 26.2 minutes per contest in his last 10 games.

Scoreless with nine boards Ware finished with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), nine rebounds and one block over 16 minutes during Monday's 140-123 win over the Clippers.

Impact Ware has cooled off from a production standpoint after being relegated back to the bench, as he averages 12.9 points, 11.4 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 1.5 blocks in 14 games as a starter, but just 7.7 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks in his last three games off the bench. With Tyler Herro (ankle) back in the mix, Ware figures to play with the second unit full time, backing up Bam Adebayo, so his fantasy production may largely hinge on whether he starts.

Impact Ware was an absolute force at the rim, resulting in his fifth straight game with 14 or more rebounds. He also bounced back as a rim protector after failing to record a swat Sunday in Philly. Ware has now recorded three straight double-doubles, averaging 20.0 points, 16.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks over this brief stretch.

Impact Making his second straight start and 13th in 17 games this season, Ware pulled down double-digit rebounds for the eighth straight contest while recording his seventh double-double on the campaign.

Scores season high in double-double Ware registered 20 points (8-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 28 minutes during Friday's 143-107 victory over the Bulls.

Impact Ware moved to the starting lineup due to the absence of Andrew Higgins (hip), and he formed a dominant frontcourt pairing with Bam Adebayo. This was the second-year big man's fifth double-double over his last six games, averaging 14.5 points and 14.5 boards per game in that stretch. This 20-point output was also a season-high mark for Ware.
