Nemanja Bjelica Fantasy Stats

Golden State Warriors shooting guard Andrew Wiggins (illness) and center Nemanja Bjelica (illness) have both been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. They are both dealing with a non-COVID illness. Jordan Poole stands to benefit from Wiggins' absence while Draymond Green and Jonathan Kuminga will help make up for Bjelica not being in the lineup. Poole, Green and Kuminga are all must-start players for fantasy managers.

Golden State Warriors center Nemanja Bjelica (quad) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Minnesota due to a quad contusion that he sustained during Sunday's loss to the Mavericks. Bjelica's absence leaves Kevon Looney and Juan Toscano-Anderson as Golden State's options at the center spot against All-Star Karl-Anthony Towns, an appealing matchup from a DFS perspective. Bjelica's limited playing time has kept him from being much of a fantasy factor during 2021-22, with his next chance to take the floor coming Thursday against Dallas.

Golden State Warriors power forward/center Nemanja Bjelica (back) has been given the green light to suit up for Thursday's game against the Knicks, halting his absence at six contests. Bjelica has been a solid bench contributor for the Warriors this season, although he has reached double figures in scoring just once in his past 13 outings. Traditionally utilized as a stretch forward, Bjelica has shot just 14.8% from behind the arc in that span. With Otto Porter Jr. (rest) and Andre Iguodala (back) ruled out Thursday, Bjelica and Jonathan Kuminga figure to step into solid frontcourt roles, although the Warriors will likely ease the veteran back into the mix.

Golden State Warriors small/power forward Otto Porter Jr. (rest) and power forward/center Nemanja Bjelica (back) have been ruled out for Tuesday's contest vs. the Spurs. Golden State is set to be extremely shorthanded for the outing with Stephen Curry (toe), Klay Thompson (rest), Draymond Green (back), and others all ruled out. The loss of Porter and Bjelica on the wing means that Jonathan Kuminga, Damion Lee, and Moses Moody are all in DFS sweet spots based on their price tag; additionally, any healthy Warriors guards will have significant upside as well. The next chance for Porter or Bjelica to return to action comes Thursday against Sacramento.

Former Sacramento Kings forward Nemanja Bjelica is heading to the Miami Heat. Miami will send forward Maurice Harkless and forward Chris Silva to Sacramento in the deal. Bjelica is having a shaky season and has played just 16.9 minutes per game, though he gives the Heat a solid stretch-four to help space the floor. The 32-year-old had a career year as a scorer, three-point shooter, and rebounder last season- though those numbers may be hard to duplicate considering he's likely to slot in behind Kelly Olynyk in Miami's rotation.

Sacramento Kings forward Nemanja Bjelica entered Thursday as the NBA player who had played the most minutes in the 2020-21 season without recording a steal. That changed against the Miami Heat, as Bjelica same away with a pair of them. But the highlight of his night has to be the team-high 25 points he scored, going 11-for-21 from the field and 2-for-9 from deep. He also added eight rebounds and three assists. The Kings are currently missing multiple frontcourt pieces, including starting center Richaun Holmes (knee). If Holmes isn't back for the game against Chicago on Saturday, expect Bjelica to have another shot to post strong numbers.

Sacramento Kings forward Nemanja Bjelica had a nice outing in Friday's loss to Orlando, picking up 15 points, nine rebounds, and six assists in 28 minutes of action off the bench. He made his first appearance in a month after falling out of favor with head coach Luke Walton. According to reports, both parties are interested in a trade, so Bjelica likely won't be wearing the Kings jersey anymore soon. Until then, Bjelica could enjoy Sunday's meeting with the Grizzlies as well, as the Kings are currently without a number of guys, including Marvin Bagley III (calf), whose injury opened up frontcourt minutes.

Sacramento Kings forward Nemanja Bjelica looks to have fallen out of the rotation, but the team reportedly says he is missing time due to personal reasons. Head coach Luke Walton said Bjelica would return to the rotation at some point, but who knows when that will be. He has not play well this season and the Kings have younger forwards who they plan to develop for the future. It sounds like Bjelica's days in Sacramento are numbered. However, it's unlikely he'll be able to produce reliable fantasy value elsewhere, so he can remain on the waiver wire until further notice.

Sacramento Kings forward Nemanja Bjelica has not played in each of the last four games. However, head coach Luke Walton believes Bjelica will return to the rotation at some point this season. He hasn't been benched because of poor play, but Walton has been using different rotations and sadly Bjelica has been the odd man out. It's unlikely he'll hold fantasy value this season with the Kings being stacked in terms of big men. It's best to leave Bjelica on the waiver wire going forward.

Sacramento Kings power forward Nemanja Bjelica played a heavy 33 minutes and made the most of his time by filling up the box score in the six-point win over the Pelicans on Tuesday. Bjelica scored 13 points while adding five rebounds with two assists and two steals with a block. We know when the Serbian gets the minutes he will produce and this could be a similar case on Thursday in the meaningless season-ending game against the Lakers. Thursday is going to be a wild one in the DFS world but put Bjelica on your watchlist as we could see similar production from the big man.
