Five rejections Tuesday Kornet ended with four points (1-4 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists, five blocks and one steal across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 126-119 victory over the Grizzlies.

Impact The five rejections were a season high for Kornet, and just one off his regular-season career high. The veteran center has started eight straight games in place of Victor Wembanyama (calf) and while he's scored in double digits only twice, he's been a fairly consistent contributor on the glass and at the rim, averaging 6.8 points, 6.1 boards, 2.5 assists and 2.0 blocks in 26.5 minutes a contest.

Muted output in win Kornet accumulated five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 23 minutes during Thursday's 135-126 victory over Atlanta.

Impact Despite the absence of Victor Wembanyama (calf), Kornet hasn't been able to capitalize on his newfound opportunity after a great start to the campaign. Over his last two starts, Kornet produced just 2.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 0.5 steals in 24.0 minutes per contest. His opportunity in the short term is massive, so it's not a bad idea for fantasy managers to keep rolling the dice on him.

Double-double in spot start Kornet contributed 13 points (5-5 FG, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and three blocks across 28 minutes during Sunday's 123-110 win over the Kings.

Impact Victor Wembanyama (calf) was held out of the lineup, so Kornet made his first start of the season and produced his second double-double of 2025-26 in only his sixth game. The veteran center could have some fantasy intrigue in the short term if Wembanyama misses any further time, but Kornet is making a good case for an increased role in the frontcourt regardless.

Starting against Kings Kornet will start Sunday's game against the Kings, Matt George of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Drops 16 points in return Kornet racked up 16 points (6-6 FG, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one block in 20 minutes during Monday's 121-117 victory over the Bulls.

Impact Kornet returned from a seven-game absence as a result of an ankle injury, scoring a season-high 16 points. With Devin Vassell exiting the game due to a migraine, the Spurs opted to go with a big lineup, playing Kornet alongside Victor Wembanyama. While this is a positive for Kornet's overall value, it doesn't guarantee extended minutes on a nightly basis. However, he is worth monitoring closely, even in standard formats.
