Start

Kevin Huerter (Chicago Bulls)

Kevin Huerter is heating up with the Bulls, finding his rhythm and capitalizing on increased usage. His sharp shooting from beyond the arc and playmaking skills are key for the team's spacing. Huerter's rising role makes him a solid start to boost your fantasy output.

Start

D'Angelo Russell (Brooklyn Nets)
