Another Suns second-year player is heating up at the right time As Oso Ighodaro thrives in his second NBA season, a fellow NBA sophomore for the Suns is hitting his stride.

First career double-double Tuesday Ighodaro posted 10 points (5-6 FG), 10 rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 23 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 120-111 victory over the Mavericks.

Impact The double-double was the first of Ighodaro's career. The second-year center had pulled down double-digit boards three times previously this season, but he hadn't managed to score in double digits in any of those contests. Ighodaro is holding down a consistent role in the Suns' frontcourt, but over the last 16 games he's averaging just 6.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.8 blocks in 21.3 minutes with the second unit.

Horror Oso Ighodaro snub should come as no surprise to Suns Oso Ighodaro wasn't name a Castrol Rising Star, and that shouldn't surprise the Suns and their fans.

Solid stat line Friday Ighodaro provided eight points (4-7 FG), seven rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block over 27 minutes during Friday's 110-103 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Ighodaro logged 22-plus minutes for the fourth time in his last five games and turned in an efficient performance Friday. The second-year center also grabbed a team-high seven rebounds after averaging just 3.0 boards per game over his previous eight outings. Additionally, he tallied multiple steals for the 11th time through 46 regular-season appearances (seven starts).

Supplies career-high six steals Ighodaro recorded 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 FT), three rebounds, one block and six steals in 26 minutes during Thursday's 108-105 loss to Detroit.

Impact Ighodaro set a new career high with six steals in the close loss, doing what he could to make up for the absence of Devin Booker (ankle). It's been a strong month for the second-year big, who has averaged 6.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.5 steals across 23.5 minutes in his past 15 games. Those aren't elite numbers, but he's arguably making a much bigger impact than the box score would suggest.

Nearly double-doubles Ighodaro logged nine points (4-5 FG, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two steals across 27 minutes during Monday's 100-97 loss to Houston.

Impact Mark Williams had a quiet outing in 21 minutes, while Ighodaro was far more effective in this one. He's trending up in deeper formats, posting averages of 6.8 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.5 blocks in 24.0 minutes over his last eight contests.

Season-best performance Ighodaro supplied 15 points (5-7 FG, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals in 20 minutes during Friday's 129-102 victory over Sacramento.

Impact Ighodaro turned in a gem of a performance, scoring at least 15 points for just the second time this season, while also adding four combined steals and blocks. Up against an undermanned Sacramento team, Ighodaro made the most of a favorable situation. However, managers will want to be cautious moving forward, given that he had scored single digits in eight of the previous nine games.

Reverting back to bench Ighodaro is coming off the bench in Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers, per Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic.

Impact Mark Williams is back from a one-game suspension to man the middle for the Suns on Wednesday, forcing Ighodaro into the second unit. For the campaign, Ighodaro has averaged 4.8 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 17.8 minutes per contest through 25 games off the bench.

Strong showing on boards Ighodaro recorded six points (2-3 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Monday's 115-101 win over the Wizards.

Impact Ighodaro wasn't overly impressive as a scorer Monday night, but he led the Suns in rebounds. He's now racked up double-digit boards in back-to-back games while filling in as the starting center. Mark Williams will presumably return to the starting lineup Wednesday in Cleveland after serving his one-game suspension.

Grabs 10 boards in spot start Ighodaro racked up eight points (4-4 FG), 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 123-114 victory over the Pelicans.

Impact Ighodaro got the start on the second leg of this back-to-back set after Mark Williams started Friday. Still, the former Marquette standout was forced to play more minutes than initially expected after Williams was ejected. Ighodaro hasn't been very consistent, though, so he's not likely to carry a lot of fantasy upside even if he starts games with more frequency. He's scored in double digits in just four games this season, and this was just his second outing with 10 or more boards.

Starting vs. New Orleans Ighodaro is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pelicans.

Impact Even though Mark Williams is available to play Saturday, the Suns will go with Ighodaro at center on the second leg of a back-to-back set. Ighodaro is averaging 6.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game in his previous five starts this season.

Records five steals off bench Ighodaro closed Thursday's 99-98 victory over the Warriors with two points (1-3 FG), 13 rebounds, one block and five steals across 28 minutes.

Impact Ighodaro stood out for his defensive performance against the Warriors, notching season-high tallies of both rebounds and steals. The 23-year-old also saw his most minutes of play in his last six appearances. However, he has been part of the second unit for almost every game.

Paces bench in win Ighodaro accumulated 10 points (5-6 FG), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 19 minutes during Monday's 108-105 win over the Timberwolves.

Impact Ighodaro was efficient Monday and scored in double figures for the first time since Nov. 18, leading the team's bench in points. The 23-year-old center has seen relatively consistent minutes with the second unit of late, though he doesn't carry much fantasy value unless Mark Williams is unavailable.

Sliding back to bench Ighodaro won't start Monday against the Lakers, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.

Impact With Mark Williams (calf) returning to the hardwood, Ighodaro will slide back to the second unit. In his previous five games off the bench, the second-year center averaged 4.0 points, 3.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.4 steals in 17.6 minutes per contest.
