Falls out of rotation Fleming (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Sunday in the Suns' 120-110 win over the Bulls.

Impact With head coach Jordan Ott electing to reduce his rotation to nine men Sunday, Fleming ended up being the odd man out. The rookie second-round pick had appeared in each of the Suns' previous 20 games, averaging 6.8 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.4 three-pointers in 18.9 minutes while shooting 45.4 percent from the field. He'll likely find playing time difficult to come by moving forward now that Phoenix is at close to full strength.

Productive in limited minutes Fleming chipped in 11 points (4-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT) and four rebounds in 16 minutes during Tuesday's 115-111 loss to Orlando.

Impact Fleming made the most of his limited minutes Tuesday, and he delivered double-digit points despite playing under 20 minutes for the first time this season. Even though all four of Fleming's double-digit scoring performances came in March, it's hard to trust him since he regularly comes off the bench and often plays under 25 minutes. With that kind of role, projecting Fleming to contribute steadily in fantasy is a tough task.
