Dennis Schröder Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Kings vs Thunder game on tomorrow with our National Basketball Association injury report.Nov 16, 2025
Season-high five threes off bench
Schroder contributed 22 points (8-13 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal across 35 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 123-110 loss to the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Back in his accustomed bench role for the second straight game, Schroder set a new season high in made threes while delivering 20-plus points for the first time since Nov. 1. Coach Doug Christie has used the same starting lineup twice in a row only two times so far this season, so Schroder could be back in the starting five the next time the roster gets put in the blender, but his production from the second unit could encourage Christie to leave him where he is for now.
Nov 12, 2025
Goes scoreless in loss
Schroder produced zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and three assists across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 122-108 loss to the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's season continues to go from bad to worse, having now scored a total of five points in the past three games. After a steady start to his career in Sacramento, Schroder has reverted back to his old ways. Through 11 games, he is averaging 11.5 points, 6.2 assists and 1.1 steals in 30.6 minutes per game, leaving him well outside the top 150 in standard formats.
Nov 3, 2025
Will play vs. Denver
Schroder (hip) is available for Monday's game against the Nuggets, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.
ANALYSIS
Right hip soreness will not prevent the veteran guard from suiting up. With Malik Monk (personal) away from the team, Schroder should have an uptick in ball-handling duties. Schroder has averaged 14.3 points, 6.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 32.5 minutes per contest over six games this season.
Nov 2, 2025
Iffy for Monday
Schroder (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Denver.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is in jeopardy of missing his first game of the season due to right hip soreness. If the veteran point guard is unable to play, Russell Westbrook, Nique Clifford and Devin Carter (knee) are candidates for increased minutes. Over six regular-season games, Schroder has averaged 14.3 points, 6.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 32.5 minutes per contest.
Nov 1, 2025
Season-high 24 points in win
Schroder provided 24 points (8-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Saturday's 135-133 win over Milwaukee.
ANALYSIS
It was a strong all-around performance by Schroder, who turned in his first 20-point showing of the season. The veteran guard is looking to prevent Russell Westbrook from taking the starting job at the point, but Schroder appears to be locked into big minutes while Keegan Murray (thumb) is sidelined anyway. Over his first six games, Schroder has averaged 14.3 points, 6.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 32.5 minutes per contest.
Oct 27, 2025
Double-double in loss to Lakers
Schroder ended with 18 points (7-18 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, 12 assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Sunday's 127-120 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
It was the first double-double in three games for Schroder as a member of the Kings. The 32-year-old guard has stepped back into a full-time starting role in Sacramento and is looking good in the early going, averaging 16.3 points, 7.3 assists, 2.7 boards, 2.0 threes and 1.7 steals in 32.7 minutes.
Oct 23, 2025
Nears double-double in loss
Schroder had 14 points (6-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt), one rebound, seven assists, one block and two steals in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 120-116 loss to the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had a decent all-around performance in his debut with his new squad. He'll continue to be a solid option in fantasy if he remains the starting point guard while putting up numbers on both ends of the floor.
Oct 21, 2025
Available for series opener
Schroder (ankle) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been dealing with an ankle injury that has kept him off the practice floor. He'll join a crowded backcourt, which includes notable players like Russell Westbrook (reconditioning), Malik Monk (illness) and Devin Carter.
Oct 20, 2025
Non-contact practice participant
Schroder (ankle) was unable to fully participate in practice Monday, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder hurt his left ankle in Friday's preseason finale against the Lakers, which has clouded his status for the regular-season opener Wednesday against Phoenix. With Russell Westbrook (reconditioning) and Malik Monk (illness) also iffy about playing, Devin Carter could be thrust into a significant role right away.
Oct 18, 2025
Scores team-high 25 points
Schroder produced 25 points (10-17 FG, 4-4 FT, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and a steal across 28 minutes in Friday's 117-116 preseason win over the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
With a host of Kings out for injury or rest, Schroder took control of this game and posted a great total. On of the pressing questions for the Kings will be the usage load at point guard, and the new addition of Russell Westbrook (rest) certainly adds an interesting wrinkle. The team gave Malik Monk (illness) a vote of confidence last season, but it seems apparent that he'll once again find himself as a second-unit backup option.
Oct 8, 2025
Starting Wednesday
Schroder will be in the starting lineup for Wednesday's preseason opener against the Raptors, Coty Wiles of RaptorsRepublic.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It's the first game of the preseason, so we wouldn't overreact to Schroder getting the start ahead of Malik Monk. Joining him in the first unit will be Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, Keegan Murray and Domantas Sabonis.
Jun 30, 2025
Joining Sacramento
Schroder agreed to a contract with the Kings on Monday, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will add depth to the Kings' backcourt, and he's expected to contend with Malik Monk (calf) and Devin Carter for the starting point guard role. The veteran floor general averaged 13.1 points, 5.4 assists and 2.6 rebounds per game across 75 regular-season contests in 2024-25 while suiting for the Nets, Warriors and Pistons.
Apr 12, 2025
Hands out eight dimes off bench
Schroder ended Friday's 125-119 loss to the Bucks with 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds and eight assists in 28 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has played off the bench in his last two outings, and the veteran guard will remain in that role if Cade Cunningham remains healthy in the postseason. Schroder can put up solid numbers if given enough minutes, but his fantasy upside will be limited in that bench role, particularly if Cunningham's minutes hover around the 38-to-40 range. Schroder is averaging 11.7 points, 5.5 assists and 2.7 rebounds per game in 21 appearances since the beginning of March (eight starts).
Apr 10, 2025
Contributes in return to bench
Schroder recorded eight points (3-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes in Thursday's 115-106 win over the New York Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder returned to the Pistons bench Thursday due to Tobias Harris (heel) returning from a three-game absence, pitching in off the bench while finishing two points short of the double-digit mark. Schroder stepped in nicely in the starting lineup over the previous eight contests, averaging 12.1 points, 6.5 assists and 3.4 rebounds over that span.
Apr 10, 2025
Sliding to second unit vs. New York
Schroder won't start in Thursday's game against the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
The veteran guard will retreat to the bench due to Tobias Harris (heel) returning from a three-game absence. Schroder has averaged 11.8 points and 5.2 assists across 23.2 minutes per game in his last five outings off the bench.
Apr 8, 2025
Minimal impact in loss
Schroder totaled five points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 32 minutes during Monday's 127-117 loss to the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Schroder made his eighth consecutive start Monday but wasn't much of a factor in the defeat. The 31-year-old had been starting in place of Cade Cunningham (calf) but has started alongside Cunningham the past two games with Tobias Harris (heel) out. During his eight straight starts, Schroder has averaged 12.1 points, 6.5 assists and 3.4 rebounds on 33.3 percent shooting across 33.5 minutes per game.
Apr 3, 2025
Hands out seven dimes Wednesday
Schroder provided 15 points (6-18 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and seven assists in 40 minutes during Wednesday's 119-103 loss to the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has started in each of his last five outings due to the absence of Cade Cunningham (calf), and the veteran floor general, who's playing for a third different team this season, has done a good job in his absence. Schroder is averaging 13.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 7.8 assists and 0.6 steals per game over those five starts, and he's expected to remain in the first unit until Cunningham is ready to return to the hardwood. A scenario in which Schroder remains the Pistons' starting point guard until the end of the regular season can't be ruled out.
Mar 31, 2025
Hands out 11 assists
Schroder supplied 11 points (3-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and 11 assists in 33 minutes during Sunday's 123-104 loss to Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Schroder recorded a double-double for the second consecutive outing, and the veteran floor general continues to deliver solid numbers while replacing Cade Cunningham (calf) in the starting lineup. Schroder has started in the Pistons' last four games, averaging 12.8 points, 8.0 assists and 3.5 rebounds per game, and he should remain in the starting unit until Cunningham is deemed ready to return.
Mar 30, 2025
Active Sunday
Schroder (quadriceps) is available for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Schroder found himself on the injury report with a quad bruise, but he will be able to play through it Sunday. With Cade Cunningham (calf) out of the lineup, Schroder could be in line for an increased workload.
Mar 29, 2025
Dealing with quad bruise
Schroder (quadriceps) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Schroder may have picked up the injury during Friday's 133-122 win over the Cavaliers, though it doesn't appear to be severe enough for him to be in jeopardy of missing Sunday's game. Schroder has started in the Pistons' last three games due to the absence of Cade Cunningham (calf), and over that span Schroder has averaged 13.3 points, 7.0 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals over 32.3 minutes per game.
Mar 23, 2025
Starting sans Cunningham
Schroder will start in Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
The veteran point guard will make his first start with Detroit due to Cade Cunningham (calf) being sidelined. Over his last five outings, Schroder has averaged 11.8 points and 5.2 assists across 23.2 minutes per contest.
Mar 16, 2025
Double-doubles off bench
Schroder produced 17 points (6-12 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, 11 assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Saturday's 113-107 loss to the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Schroder surpassed the 25-minute mark just for the second time since the beginning of March and made the most of the opportunity, extending his streak of games with double-digit points to six while also notching his first double-double as a Piston. The expanded role might have been related to the fact that Cade Cunningham was ejected in the third quarter. Since Cunningham won't face any suspension, Schroder should continue to play off the bench when the Pistons take on the Pelicans on Monday.
Mar 14, 2025
Reaches double figures off bench
Schroder amassed 11 points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and three assists over 20 minutes during Thursday's 129-125 loss to the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Schroder led the way off the Pistons bench in Thursday's outing, leading all bench players in scoring and assists in a losing effort. Schroder has surpassed the double-digit scoring mark while coming off the bench in eight contests this season.
Mar 6, 2025
Strong performance in loss
Schroder racked up 21 points (8-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt), six rebounds and seven assists over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 123-115 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder delivered his best performance since arriving in Detroit, scoring at least 20 points for the first time since late January. Schroder has slotted in as the sixth man for the Pistons, typically playing minutes in high teens. While this was a nice performance, it is unlikely to be the norm when it comes to his production.
Feb 28, 2025
Will suit up Friday
Schroder (ankle) is available for Friday's game against Denver, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will return to game action after missing Wednesday's win over the Celtics due to a left ankle sprain. The veteran point guard has averaged 8.2 points, 4.2 assists and 1.8 rebounds across 18.0 minutes per contest in six outings with the Pistons.
Feb 27, 2025
Probable for Friday
Schroder (ankle) has been listed as probable for Friday's game against the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed Wednesday's win against the Celtics while dealing with a sprained left ankle. However, he's trending toward returning to the floor Friday against Denver. The veteran guard has played in six games for Detroit since being acquired by the team, averaging 8.2 points, 1.8 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game.
Feb 26, 2025
No-go Wednesday
Schroder (ankle) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Celtics, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was initially labeled questionable for Wednesday's tilt due to left ankle soreness. However, he's been downgraded to out and will be unavailable to face Boston. Look for Marcus Sasser to fill in as the backup point guard behind Cade Cunningham. Schroder's next chance to play will come Friday against Denver.
Feb 26, 2025
Iffy against Boston
Schroder is questionable to face Boston on Wednesday due to left ankle soreness.
ANALYSIS
This is a new issue for Schroder, but the questionable tag means he's likely day-to-day. The veteran point guard has averaged 18.1 minutes across six games with his new club. If he's unable to go, Marcus Sasser could pick up a handful of minutes.
Feb 23, 2025
Provides lift offensively off bench
Schroder notched 16 points (5-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 22 minutes during Sunday's 148-143 win over the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had a nice outing off the bench Sunday, leading all Pistons bench players in assists while finishing as one of four players with 15 or more points in a high-scoring victory. Schroder posted the highest scoring and assist totals as a member of the Pistons, recording his ninth outing of the year with at least 15 points and seven dimes.
Feb 12, 2025
Muted performance in win
Schroder contributed four points (1-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and four assists in 15 minutes during Tuesday's 132-92 victory over the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
With two games under his belt in Detroit, it's pretty clear that his fantasy appeal leaves a lot to be desired as a backup point guard. In that span, he averaged 14.8 minutes per contest with 4.5 points and 3.5 assists on 20.0 percent shooting from the field.
Feb 9, 2025
Cleared for debut
Schroder (recently traded) is available to make his Pistons debut Sunday against the Hornets, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
After starring for the Nets to begin the season, Schroder was shipped to Golden State in December, but he found himself on the move again ahead of the trade deadline as the Warriors pursued Jimmy Butler. Schroder found a solid home in Detroit, where he can mentor and operate as a backup point guard behind Cade Cunningham and provide the Pistons with backcourt insurance until Jaden Ivey (lower leg) is cleared to suit up again.
Feb 8, 2025
Could make Detroit debut Sunday
Schroder (recently traded) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was sent to the Pistons in Wednesday's trade that revolved around Jimmy Butler going to the Warriors. Schroder wasn't able to play against the 76ers on Friday due to the trade still pending, but he could make his Pistons' debut Sunday if the transaction is finalized by then. Across 47 regular-season games between the Nets and Warriors, Schroder has averaged 14.4 points, 5.5 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.1 steals over 29.8 minutes per game. He will serve in a rotational role off the Pistons' bench, though he could see meaningful minutes Sunday if Cade Cunningham (ankle) is not cleared to play.
Feb 7, 2025
Won't play Friday
Schroder (recently traded) won't be making his debut Friday for the Pistons against the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was recently involved in the massive trade involving Jimmy Butler landing with the Warriors, which resulted in him being acquired by Detroit. Unfortunately, the veteran guard won't be making his debut Friday with the Pistons against Philadelphia. The next chance he'll get on the floor for his new team will be Sunday against the Hornets.
Feb 6, 2025
Traded to Detroit
Schroder will be rerouted to Detroit as part of the Jimmy Butler trade package, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was initially sent from Golden State to Utah, but he'll eventually land with the Pistons as several teams continue to finalize the massive trade with Butler as the headliner. With Jaden Ivey (leg) out several more weeks, Schroder could see the bulk of the backup point guard minutes in Detroit behind Cade Cunningham. Those two could share the floor at times, as well.
Feb 5, 2025
Sent to Utah in trade
Schroder has reportedly been shipped to the Jazz as part of the massive trade involving Jimmy Butler being dealt to the Warriors, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
As part of a massive deal ahead of Thursday's NBA trade deadline, Schroder has been moved to Utah, with Butler being dealt to Golden State and Andrew Wiggins heading to Miami with Kyle Anderson being shipped to Toronto. The veteran point guard adds depth to the backcourt for the Jazz.
Jan 29, 2025
Back to bench against Thunder
Schroder is coming off the bench in Wednesday's game against the Thunder, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
After starting Tuesday's game against the Jazz, Schroder will head back to Golden State's second unit in Stephen Curry's (knees) return Wednesday. Over three games off the bench for the Warriors, the veteran guard has averaged 9.3 points, 5.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 threes in 20.9 minutes.
Jan 29, 2025
Notches 23 points
Schroder closed Tuesday's 114-103 victory over the Jazz with 23 points (8-20 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and three steals in 34 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Stephen Curry (knee) was a late scratch for this contest, presumably to be ready for the second leg of this back-to-back set Wednesday against the Thunder. It's worth noting that Schroder picked up a knee issue Tuesday that forced him to the sidelines for about five minutes, but he was able to finish out the game. For now, there's no indication that his status is in doubt for Wednesday.
Jan 28, 2025
Checks back into game
Schroder (knee) checked back into Tuesday's game versus the Jazz with 3:21 remaining in the third quarter, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed just over five minutes of game time due to a left knee injury scare before returning to action. Unless the 30-year-old guard suffers a further setback, he should be able to finish out Tuesday's contest.
Jan 28, 2025
Helped to locker room Tuesday
Schroder was helped to the locker room after sustaining an apparent left knee injury in the third quarter of Tuesday's game against the Jazz, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder wasn't able to put any weight on his left leg as he exited the game, and if he's unable to return, he'll finish the matchup with 15 points (5-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 22 minutes. The veteran point guard got the start for Stephen Curry (knees), meaning Brandin Podziemski and Gary Payton will likely see an uptick in playing time if Schroder isn't able to return.
Jan 28, 2025
Starting sans Curry
Schroder will start in Tuesday's game against Utah, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.
ANALYSIS
The 31-year-old point guard will get the starting nod with Stephen Curry (knees) sidelined. Schroder has started in 17 outings for the Warriors this season, during which he has averaged 10.6 points and 4.3 assists in 27.6 minutes per contest.
Jan 23, 2025
Dishes out five dimes off bench
Schroder registered seven points (3-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds and five assists across 21 minutes during Wednesday's 123-117 loss to the Kings.
ANALYSIS
After starting in 17 straight games for Golden State, Schroder came off the bench for the first time this season. While the 31-year-old guard dished out five assists, he also coughed up five turnovers against Sacramento. If Schroder continues to come off the bench, his fantasy value will diminish.
Jan 22, 2025
Coming off bench
Schroder isn't part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Kings, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will come off the bench for the first time this season, despite the Warriors being down Brandin Podziemski (abdomen). Instead, Golden State will start Stephen Curry, Buddy Hield, Gary Payton, Andrew Wiggins and Kevon Looney.
Jan 19, 2025
Scores 20 points Saturday
Schroder contributed 20 points (7-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, four assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Saturday's 122-114 win over the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins led the way for the Warriors on Saturday, but Schroder posted a solid stat line as well and reached the 20-point mark for the first time since being traded from the Nets to the Warriors in mid-December. He's averaging 10.8 points, 2.1 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game since joining Golden State while being a reliable presence in the starting unit.
Jan 9, 2025
Good to go against Detroit
Schroder (hip) is available for Thursday's game versus the Pistons, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been upgraded from questionable to available Thursday despite dealing with a left hip contusion. Schroder is averaging 9.9 points, 4.6 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 28.5 minutes across his last 10 outings.
Jan 8, 2025
Questionable with hip injury
Schroder (hip) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is at risk of missing Thursday's game with a left hip contusion, and the Warriors' backcourt could be severely shorthanded with Stephen Curry (knee) also iffy to suit up. Buddy Hield could be needed to take on substantial usage against the Pistons, depending on how Golden State's injury situation shakes out ahead of the action.
Jan 6, 2025
Struggles with shot in loss
Schroder closed Sunday's 129-99 loss to Sacramento with three points (1-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists in 21 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder suffered through his worst night of the season, connecting on only one of his seven shot attempts during the loss. The Warriors desperately need better nights from the veteran, as he represents the team's most dependable option at the position. Buddy Hield and Moses Moody are streaky producers, and Brandin Podziemski (abdomen) is currently unavailable. Moody stepped in and picked up the slack, but the outcome of this game was never in doubt. Schroder had four consecutive double-digit scoring results prior to the downturn, and he's still worth a stash in deeper fantasy leagues.
Jan 5, 2025
Steps up with team-high nine dimes
Schroder ended with 17 points (6-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Saturday's 121-113 win over Memphis.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's nine dimes led the team with top playmaker Stephen Curry (knee) sidelined Saturday, and the assists were his most in a game since landing with the Warriors. The veteran guard is beginning to look a bit more comfortable in Golden State, reaching double digits in scoring in five of his last six games, a stretch where Schroder is averaging 12.2 points, 5.2 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 2.0 threes in 29.5 minutes.
Jan 3, 2025
Encouraging performance in rout
Schroder ended Thursday's 139-105 victory over Philadelphia with 15 points (5-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, six assists and two steals over 25 minutes.
ANALYSIS
It was a solid scoring night for Schroder, who also handed out his most assists since joining the Warriors. Over eight games with his new team, the veteran guard is averaging 9.9 points, 4.1 assists, 2.3 rebounds. 0.6 steals and 1.3 threes in 27.6 minutes, a far cry from what his figures were in Brooklyn to start the season. Schroder is still acclimating to his new surroundings in Golden State as more of a secondary option alongside Stephen Curry in the backcourt, so fantasy managers should continue to exercise patience moving ahead.
Dec 26, 2024
Biggest impact since trade
Schroder closed Wednesday's 115-113 loss to the Lakers with 11 points (3-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal in 28 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Dennis Schroder hasn't been much of a game-changer for the Golden State since being traded to the Warriors, but showed some promise in the loss to the Lakers on Christmas Day. Schroder cracked double digits in the scoring column while also dishing out five assists, which could be a step in the right direction for the veteran guard.
Dec 19, 2024
Will start Thursday
Coach Steve Kerr said that Schroder will start in Thursday's game against the Grizzlies, Sam Gordon of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
The 31-year-old guard will start alongside Stephen Curry in his Warriors debut Thursday. Across his last five games with the Nets, Schroder averaged 17.8 points, 7.6 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 0.8 steals while shooting 45.9 percent from the field across 31.4 minutes per game.
Dec 15, 2024
Won't make Warriors debut Sunday
Schroder (trade pending) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
The trade sending Schroder to Golden State couldn't become official until Sunday morning, so it's not surprising to see the veteran point guard ruled out. Schroder averaged 18.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.1 steals and a career-high 2.5 triples across 33.6 minutes in 23 games as the Nets' starting point guard, but it's unclear how big his role will be with the Warriors, as he'll have to compete with Buddy Hield and Brandin Podziemski for minutes. Schroder's next chance to make his Warriors debut will come Thursday in Memphis.
Dec 14, 2024
Dealt to Warriors
The Warriors are finalizing a deal with the Nets to land Dennis Schroder and one second-round pick in exchange for De'Anthony Melton and three second-round picks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors have been looking for play making help, and they have found some with Schroder. The veteran guard is averaging 18.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.1 steals and a career-high 2.5 triples across 33.6 minutes in 23 games as the Nets starting point guard. He will now join a backcourt with Steph Curry and compete for minutes with the likes of Buddy Hield and Brandin Podziemski. It is unclear if Schroder will come play a backup point guard role or start alongside Curry right away.
Dec 14, 2024
Sniffs double-double Friday
Schroder closed with 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), three rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 26 minutes during Friday's 135-119 loss to Memphis.
ANALYSIS
Schroder couldn't repeat the 34-point performance he delivered in the loss to the Bucks on Dec. 8, but the veteran floor general had another impressive performance as a scorer and playmaker. Schroder has scored at least 15 points in four of his five appearances this month, averaging 17.8 points, 7.6 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 0.8 steals per game in that stretch.
Dec 8, 2024
Surpasses 30 points as top scorer
Schroder ended Sunday's 118-113 loss to the Bucks with 34 points (13-19 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds and 11 assists over 34 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder led the way for Brooklyn in Sunday's contest, pacing all Nets players in scoring and assists while connecting on a team-high-tying mark from three in a dominating offensive performance. Schroder set a new season high in scoring while matching a season-best mark from three. He has handed out at least 10 dimes in four contests this season, all of which have been double-double showcases.
Dec 4, 2024
Season-low four points Wednesday
Schroder produced four points (2-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and two steals over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 99-90 victory over the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
It was certainly a down night for Schroder, who also turned the ball over four times Wednesday, but he was able to come up with a clutch layup as well as a steal deep in the fourth quarter as Brooklyn nursed a late lead in the win. The 31-year-old veteran guard has been up and down for the Nets this season, and he's shooting a paltry 35.9 percent from the field and 25.9 percent from deep over his last nine games. Even so, Schroder is averaging a solid 16.0 points, 6.9 assists, 2.9 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.7 three-pointers during this cold spell, and he should maintain a featured role on offense while scoring machine Cam Thomas (hamstring) remains sidelined. Schroder has an expiring contract that could make him a trade candidate for contending clubs later this season, which is something for fantasy managers to keep in mind.
Dec 3, 2024
Records triple-double
Schroder accumulated 16 points (7-15 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and 10 assists across 29 minutes during Monday's 128-102 loss to the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed all six of his shots from beyond the arc, but other than that, he had an impressive showing both as a scorer and playmaker. This was Schroder's third double-double of the season, and first since Nov. 19, but he should remain a productive offensive weapon for the Nets, especially with Cam Thomas (hamstring) sidelined until late December at the earliest.
Dec 1, 2024
Reaches 20 points in return
Schroder notched 20 points (6-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), two rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal across 37 minutes during Sunday's 100-92 loss to the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder returned Sunday after missing Friday's contest due to personal reasons, leading all Nets players in assists while finishing as one of two players with 20 or more points in a losing effort. Schroder has tallied at least 20 points in 10 outings this year, adding at least five dimes in eight of those contests. He has now surpassed the 20-point mark in three straight appearances.
Nov 30, 2024
Set to return Sunday
Schroder (personal) is not on the injury report and will be available for Sunday's game against the Magic, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed Friday's 23-point loss to the Magic due to personal reasons, but the veteran floor general is set to return to the starting unit and should handle his regular workload Sunday. Schroder is averaging 16.3 points, 5.6 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game since the beginning of November.
Nov 28, 2024
Out for personal reasons
Schroder has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Magic due to personal reasons.
ANALYSIS
After totaling 60 points and 10 assists over his last two games, Schroder is taking a day off, joining Cam Thomas (hamstring) as unavailable. Ziaire Williams, Shake Milton and Keon Johnson are all candidates for increased roles Friday, while Schroder's next chance to suit up will come Sunday during a rematch against the Magic.
Nov 28, 2024
Scores 29 points Wednesday
Schroder notched 29 points (8-21 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 9-9 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 127-117 victory over Phoenix.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had to embrace a more prominent role on offense due to the absence of Cam Thomas (hamstring), but he stepped his game up and finished with a strong line. This is the second time Schroder has scored at least 25 points in consecutive games, with the previous stretch being a three-game span between Oct. 27 and Oct. 30. Expect Schroder to experience an uptick in his fantasy value as he deals with a bigger role on offense and an uptick in his usage rate in the coming weeks.
Nov 26, 2024
Returns to action with 31 points
Schroder registered 31 points (10-18 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 7-7 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 31 minutes during Monday's 128-120 victory over the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was a late removal from the injury report and played a key role in a surprise win for the short-handed Nets. Monday marked Schroder's second-best scoring total of the season, and he's enjoyed an encouraging month during his first full season with Brooklyn. Over 17 games, Schroder is averaging 18.0 points, 6.5 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.2 steals.
Nov 25, 2024
Will play vs. Warriors
Schroder (ankle) has been cleared to play Monday against Golden State, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was being considered a true game-time decision with about one hour remaining before tipoff, and he's now been given the green light to play. He isn't expected to be on any kind of minute limit after missing only one game Sunday against the Kings.
Nov 25, 2024
Officially questionable
Schroder (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Warriors, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed his first game of the season Sunday but will have a chance to return for the second half of Brooklyn's back-to-back set. Over his last nine appearances, Schroder has averaged 15.1 points, 5.8 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 34.0 minutes per game. If he's sidelined, Ziaire Williams would likely draw another start.
Nov 24, 2024
Won't play Sunday
Schroder (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Kings, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will miss his first game of the 2024-25 regular season due to right ankle soreness, and his next chance to play will be on the second leg of a back-to-back against the Warriors on Monday. Ben Simmons, Ziaire Williams and Keon Johnson are candidates to see more playing time Sunday due to Schroder's absence.
Nov 24, 2024
Downgraded to questionable
Schroder (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is trending in the wrong direction ahead of Sunday's contest, being deemed a game-time decision due to right ankle soreness. If he is unable to go, Ben Simmons and Keon Johnson would be candidates for extra minutes.
Nov 24, 2024
Dealing with ankle soreness
Schroder is probable for Sunday's game against the Kings due to right ankle soreness, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder wasn't listed on the initial injury report, and he's still expected to suit up despite being a late addition. Over his last nine appearances, Schroder has averaged 15.1 points, 5.8 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 34.0 minutes per game.
Nov 20, 2024
Double-double in Tuesday's win
Schroder had 14 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-5 FT), five rebounds, 12 assists, two blocks and one steal in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 116-115 win over the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
It's the second double-double of the season for the veteran guard, with the other coming back on Oct, 29. Schroder's offense has slowed down after a hot start to the campaign -- he dropped 20 or more points in seven of his first 10 games but has failed to deliver more than 16 in any of the last five contests, averaging 13.2 points, 6.2 assists, 3.2 boards, 2.0 threes and 0.8 steals over that stretch while shooting just 35.6 percent from the floor and 31.3 percent from beyond the arc.
Nov 16, 2024
Comes close to double-double
Schroder amassed 14 points (4-17 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 34 minutes during Friday's 124-122 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had a rough showing from the field and needed 17 shots to score 14 points, but he salvaged his fantasy line with his eight assists and two steals. The veteran floor general hasn't recorded a double-double since late October, but he remains productive as the Nets' starting floor general. He's scored in double digits in six games in a row, a span where he's averaging 17.7 points, 4.5 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.3 steals per contest.
Nov 10, 2024
Scores 22 points in close loss
Schroder produced 22 points (7-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and five assists across 37 minutes during Saturday's 105-100 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is having an excellent start to the campaign, and he's reached the 20-point plateau in seven of his 10 appearances this season. The German floor general is doing more than just scoring, though, and he's also handed out five or more assists eight times. That mixture of being a scorer and facilitator gives him a strong floor in most formats, and even though he shares the court with Cameron Johnson and Cam Thomas, Schroder has enough touches and freedom on offense to remain valuable across all formats.
Nov 4, 2024
Muted performance in loss
Schroder closed with seven points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and three steals in 33 minutes during Sunday's 106-92 loss to the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
After a blistering start to the campaign, Schroder has finally cooled off, scoring a combined 16 points in his last two games. As for Sunday night, he posted season-low marks of seven points and four assists. His workloads haven't been impacted, however, and the Nets are clearly confident with him running the show offensively.
Nov 2, 2024
Does a little bit of everything
Schroder contributed nine points (4-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt), seven rebounds, seven assists and three steals over 33 minutes during Friday's 120-112 win over Chicago.
ANALYSIS
Schroder didn't have the most efficient night from the field Friday, but he managed to produce in other ways and finished second on the Nets in assists and rebounds behind Ben Simmons. It was Schroder's lowest-scoring effort of the regular season, but he had scored at least 28 points in his prior three outings. For the season, he's averaging 22.0 points on 51.7 percent shooting, 8.0 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals over 35.0 minutes per game.
Oct 31, 2024
Explodes for 33-point performance
Schroder totaled 33 points (11-14 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 119-106 victory over the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Schroder reached a new season-high scoring mark with this impressive outing, as he took over the game offensively in a game where Cam Thomas struggled with his shot. Schroder has opened the season on a tear and has reached the 20-point mark in four straight contests, averaging 27.5 points and 8.5 assists per game while shooting a blistering 61 percent from the field in that span. Some regression is bound to happen, but the German floor general will remain as one of the Nets' go-to players on offense every time Brooklyn takes the floor.
Oct 29, 2024
Double-doubles in loss
Schroder recorded 28 points (10-18 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 3-4 FT) and 14 assists in 42 minutes during Tuesday's overtime loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder set an early-season high in assists Tuesday while also posting his first double-double of the year. Alongside Cam Thomas, Brooklyn has had one of the most productive backcourt to start the 2024-25 campaign. Schroder has now made at least five threes in back-to-back games.
Oct 27, 2024
Scores 29 points vs. Milwaukee
Schroder chipped in 29 points (8-15 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Sunday's 115-102 win over the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was the Nets' second-leading scorer Sunday behind Cam Thomas (32) and tied with Ben Simmons for most assists on the team. Schroder has logged at least six assists in each of the first three games of the regular season, and over that span he's averaging 20.7 points on 46.5 percent shooting, 6.3 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 33.7 minutes per game.
Oct 26, 2024
Drops 20 points Friday
Schroder produced 20 points (7-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound, six assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 116-101 loss to the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder scored a season-high 20 points in the loss, turning in another decent performance. Despite his limitations, Schroder typically finds a way to do just enough to remain fantasy-relevant, much like he has done to begin the season. His long-term outlook is far from enticing, given the Nets could look to move him or lean into their youth a little more as the season progresses. For now, he deserves a roster spot in most formats, particularly for anyone seeking points and assists.
Oct 19, 2024
Modest production in loss Friday
Schroder closed with 12 points (3-11 FG, 1-5 3PT, 5-6 FT), three assists, two steals and one rebound in 35 minutes during Friday's 116-112 preseason loss to the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Schroder played a team-high 35 minutes, delivering modest yet serviceable production. Coming into the regular season, Schroder will be battling with Ben Simmons for the starting point guard role. Both are worth taking a flyer on late in drafts, just in case either can establish themselves as the clear-cut choice. Simmons is also no stranger when it comes to injuries, meaning Schroder could simply land the role by default at some point.
Oct 15, 2024
Scores 13 points Monday
Schroder posted 13 points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, seven assists and a block across 25 minutes in Monday's 131-92 preseason win over the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been playing alongside Ben Simmons in the backcourt in the preseason, and it wouldn't be surprising if the duo starts together on Opening Night against the Hawks on Oct. 23. Schroder made 80 appearances during the 2023-24 regular season while suiting for the Raptors and Nets, averaging 14.0 points, 6.1 assists and 3.0 rebounds across 31.1 minutes per contest.
Aug 10, 2024
Team-high six assists in loss
Schroder contributed 13 points (4-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists and four rebounds across 31 minutes in Saturday's 93-83 loss to Serbia in the bronze medal game of the Paris Olympics.
ANALYSIS
Schroder tied Germany's team high in assists during its loss to Nikola Jokic and Serbia. The veteran point guard was one of Germany's top options in the Paris Olympics alongside Franz Wagner, and Schroder served as the team's primary facilitator. The 30-year-old ended the Olympics with averages of 17.2 points, 7.5 assists and 2.5 rebounds across 31.3 minutes per game in six contests.
Aug 8, 2024
Strong performance in close loss
Schroder accumulated 18 points (6-18 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four assists, two rebounds and one steal in 33 minutes during Thursday's 73-69 semifinal loss to France.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's efficiency wasn't stellar, but he controlled Germany's offense effectively and was a constant bail-out scoring option. His 18 points led the team, with the next-best mark being Franz Wagner's 10 points. With the loss, Germany will play for the bronze medal.
Aug 2, 2024
Goes for 26 points Friday
Schroder delivered 26 points (10-17 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, nine assists and a steal in Friday's 85-71 win over France.
ANALYSIS
Schroder co-led the Germans in scoring in the win, as Franz Wagner also delivered 26 points, but he also made his presence felt as a playmaker thanks to his game-high nine assists. Schroder has been nothing short of sensational in the current Olympics run and should be one of Germany's go-to players in the knockout stages.
Jul 30, 2024
Game-high 20 points in Olympics win
Schroder tallied 20 points (7-13 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists, four steals and three rebounds across 32 minutes in Germany's 86-73 win over Brazil in the Paris Olympics on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had an efficient outing while scoring a game-high 20 points Tuesday. After shooting only 1-for-6 from three-point range Saturday versus Japan, the 30-year-old bounced back and had an efficient game from beyond the arc. Through two group-phase games, Schroder has accumulated 33 points and 18 assists. The veteran point guard will be expected to lead the squad alongside Franz Wagner in the group phase and beyond, up to the quarter finals.
Jul 27, 2024
Double-double in blowout win
Schroder put up 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt),12 assists and two rebounds across 28 minutes in Germany's 97-77 win over Japan in the Paris Olympics on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder led Germany with 12 assists, acting as the team's top facilitator in the victory. The 30-year-old is playing in his first Olympic Games, coming just one year after he led Germany to victory in the FIBA Basketball World Cup for the first time. Schroder and Franz Wagner will look to lead Germany to Olympic success this year, but they still do have to face France and Brazil in the group phase.
Jul 23, 2024
Game-high 10 assists in loss
Schroder put up 13 points (3-15 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 10 assists, two rebounds and one block across 17 minutes in Germany's 92-88 exhibition game loss to the United States on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder produced a rough showing from the field in Monday's loss to Team USA. However, the 30-year-old did tally a game-high 10 assists as Germany kept the exhibition match close. Schroder and Franz Wagner will aim to lead the squad to Olympic success in Paris, and Germany's ability to hang with Team USA bodes well for their Olympic hopes, especially after winning the FIBA Basketball World Cup for the first time in 2023.
Jul 8, 2024
Ties game-high 17 points in win
Schroder (Achilles) posted 17 points (6-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four assists, one rebound and one steal across 27 minutes in Germany's 70-65 win over France on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed the final two games of the Nets' season due to an Achilles injury. In 2023-24, he averaged 14.6 points, 6.0 assists and 3.5 rebounds in 32.0 minutes per game. However, the 30-year-old's injury seems to no longer be a concern as Germany prepares for the Olympic Games in Paris. Through two preparation games, the veteran point guard is averaging 20.0 points, 5.0 assists and 1.0 rebounds across 27.5 minutes. Schroder and Germany will officially begin the games by facing off against Japan on July 27.
Apr 12, 2024
Will miss final two games
Schroder has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Knicks and Sunday's game in Philadelphia, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed only one game this season, which came after he was traded from Toronto to Brooklyn at the deadline. As a Net, the veteran guard averaged 14.6 points, 6.0 assists and 3.5 rebounds in 32.0 minutes per game. Schroder has one year remaining on his current deal, which he signed with the Raptors ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.
Apr 12, 2024
Downgraded to out
Schroder (Achilles) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Knicks, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will miss his first game since Feb. 8, marking only his second absence of the season. It's unclear if the veteran will play in Brooklyn's regular-season finale against the 76ers on Sunday.
Apr 12, 2024
Dealing with Achilles soreness
Schroder is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks due to right Achilles soreness, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is a late addition to the injury report. He's appeared in 29 straight games, averaging 14.6 points, 6.0 assists and 3.5 rebounds in 32.0 minutes per game. If Schroder is sidelined, Jacob Gilyard, Jalen Wilson and Lonnie Walker would all be candidates for increased roles.
Apr 11, 2024
All-around performance in win
Schroder closed with 21 points (7-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 106-102 win over the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Schroder recorded a team-high nine assists with just one turnover during Wednesday's win over Toronto. The 29-year-old guard was one shy of logging his ninth double-double of the season. However, Schroder has struggled with his efficiency as of late, shooting just 40.7 percent from the field over his last 10 outings.
Apr 7, 2024
Good to go
Schroder (Achilles) is available for Sunday's matchup with the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Right Achilles tendinitis led to Schroder drawing a questionable tag heading into Sunday's game, but he is apparently feeling good enough to give it a go. Barring any setbacks, look for the veteran to take on his usual responsibilities at point guard for Brooklyn.
Apr 7, 2024
Questionable to play Sunday
Schroder is questionable for Sunday's game against Sacramento due to right Achilles tendinitis.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's status is a swing factor for a Brooklyn rotation that is lacking Dorian Finney-Smith (knee) and Cameron Johnson (toe) on Sunday, although Dennis Smith (hip) is probable to take the court after a three-game absence. Schroder is averaging 14.3 points and 6.0 assists in 30.0 minutes across his last four contests, but he's coming off of 24-point outing during Saturday's win over to Detroit.
Apr 7, 2024
Strong numbers in win Saturday
Schroder registered 24 points (8-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds and six assists over 36 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 win over the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was impressive both as a scorer and playmaker, though his efficiency from the field certainly stood out -- he missed just two shots from the field even though he entered this game shooting 43.6 percent from the field. Schroder is ending the campaign on a strong note after putting up 19 or more points in four of his last seven appearances.
Apr 4, 2024
Dishes out 11 dimes in victory
Schroder produced 12 points (5-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and 11 assists over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 115-111 win over the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder recorded a team-high 11 assists while only surrendering two turnovers during Wednesday's win over the Pacers. The 29-year-old guard has now recorded eight double-doubles this season, and his season average of 6.1 assists is his most since 2017-28.
Mar 30, 2024
Drills seven triples Friday
Schroder closed with 27 points (10-21 FG, 7-11 3Pt), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Friday's 125-108 victory over the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Schroder caught fire from the perimeter, connecting on a season-high seven three-pointers en route to 27 points. He has now scored at least 19 points in three straight games, continuing to play a sizeable role in Brooklyn. He has been a borderline top-130 player over the past month, making him worthy of a roster spot, especially for anyone in need of points and assists.
Mar 27, 2024
Sparks offensively in overtime win
Schroder posted 21 points (8-19 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight assists, four rebounds, one steal and one block over 43 minutes in Wednesday's 122-119 overtime win over Washington.
ANALYSIS
Schroder boosted Brooklyn offensively in Wednesday's victory, connecting on a team-high-tying trio of threes while leading all Nets in assists and ending as one of two players with 20 or more points. Schroder has posted at least 20 points and eight assists in six games this season, notching his first game with 20 or more points since a 31-point outing March 10.
Mar 26, 2024
Solid output vs. former team
Schroder registered 19 points (7-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and seven assists across 37 minutes during Monday's 96-88 victory over the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was impressive against his former team, but perhaps the most important aspect of his performance Monday was that he managed to bounce back from a couple of underwhelming efforts. He was coming off two straight games with single-digit scoring performances. Despite the ups and downs, Schroder has done a decent job as a starter in Brooklyn, averaging 15.2 points, 6.7 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 0.7 steals per game since the beginning of March.
Mar 23, 2024
Set to play Saturday
Schroder is available for Saturday's game versus the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been upgraded from probable to available Saturday after being a late addition to the injury report with right forearm soreness. Schroder is averaging 15.5 points, 6.9 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 35.2 minutes across his last 10 appearances.
Mar 23, 2024
Late addition to injury report
Schroder is listed as probable for Saturday's game versus the Knicks due to right forearm soreness, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
ANALYSIS
Despite being a late addition to the injury report Saturday, Schroder is still expected to play. The 29-year-old guard has started in all of Brooklyn's last 14 outings.
Mar 18, 2024
Goes for 19 with seven dimes
Schroder posted 19 points (8-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal over 42 minutes during Sunday's 122-115 overtime loss to San Antonio.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was far from being at his best in terms of efficiency, needing 19 shots to score 19 points, but he still posted a decent stat line overall, making an impact both as a scorer and playmaker. Over his last 10 games, all as a starter for Brooklyn, Schroder is averaging 17.5 points, 7.0 assists and 2.9 rebounds per game. Despite the fact he's going to have poor shooting performances from time to time, Schroder will remain a valuable fantasy asset as long as he plays heavy minutes in a struggling Brooklyn team.
Mar 17, 2024
Scores 13 points with 13 shots
Schroder accumulated 13 points (4-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Saturday's 121-100 loss to the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder didn't have his best shooting performance, but in reality, the entire Nets offense looked sluggish Saturday, with Schroder being one of the few players who posted decent stat lines. The veteran floor general has failed to reach the 20-point mark in his last four outings since scoring a season-high 31 points against the Pistons on March 7, but he remains a productive player while holding the starting role at point guard. He's averaging 17.2 points, 6.4 assists and 2.6 rebounds per game since moving to the first unit on a permanent basis.
Mar 8, 2024
Pours in season-high 31 in loss
Schroder amassed 31 points (12-17 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound and eight assists in 39 minutes during Thursday's 118-112 loss to the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
It was a season scoring high for Schroder, who was making his seventh straight start while Cam Thomas recovers from an ankle/foot sprain. Schroder may not give the job back once Thomas returns -- over that seven-game stretch, the 30-year-old journeyman guard is averaging 19.1 points, 6.7 assists, 3.1 threes and 2.6 boards while shooting 54.3 percent from the floor and a stunning 61.1 percent (22-for-36) from beyond the arc.
Mar 6, 2024
Another impressive showing Tuesday
Schroder contributed 20 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-7 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and one block across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 112-107 victory over Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Schroder continues to settle in well in a starting role for the Nets, and he seems to be playing better and better with each passing game. He's scored in double digits in each of his last six starts with Brooklyn, a span in which he's averaging 17.2 points, 6.5 assists, 2.8 rebounds and a combined 1.5 steals-plus-blocks. To note, he's also shooting an impressive -- but likely unsustainable -- 58.6 percent from three-point range over those six contests.
Mar 5, 2024
Sniffs double-double Monday
Schroder finished Monday's 106-102 loss to the Grizzlies with 13 points (5-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-3 FT), two rebounds, nine assists and one steal over 37 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder didn't have his best shooting performance and was particularly woeful from beyond the arc, but he still posted a solid stat line and ended just one assist away from recording a double-double. Schroder has started in each of the Nets' last five games, averaging 16.6 points and 6.2 assists per game, so he should remain in that role going forward, giving him decent upside in most formats.
Mar 1, 2024
Goes for 23 points in win
Schroder had 23 points (9-15 FG, 5-7 3Pt), eight rebounds and seven assists over 27 minutes during Thursday's 124-97 victory over the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has done a good job since moving to the starting lineup on a permanent basis three games ago, hitting the 15-point mark in each of those contests. Schroder can thrive offensively in a steady role, and his fantasy upside should experience an uptick as a result of a higher usage rate.
Feb 28, 2024
Goes for 15 points in loss
Schroder chipped in 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and three steals over 25 minutes during Tuesday's 108-81 loss to the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was one of the few bright spots in an anemic Brooklyn offense that recorded 81 points, one of its lowest marks of the season, in this defeat. Schroder has been alternating between the starting lineup and the bench, which makes it a bit hard for him to have a solid fantasy floor, but he's scored in double digits in his last two starts, so it wouldn't be surprising if he remains in that role when Brooklyn takes on Atlanta on Thursday.
Feb 26, 2024
Fuels easy win
Schroder provided 18 points (7-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and five assists over 26 minutes during Monday's 111-86 win over the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Schroder posted a team-high 18 points, while fellow on-ball weapon Ben Simmons delivered four points and three assists 14 minutes. Schroder is a seasoned leader with pedigree to orchestrate the offense, but he's unlikely to exceed a 25-30 minute workload on a nightly basis.
Feb 26, 2024
Moves to starting lineup
Schroeder is starting Monday's game against the Grizzlies, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will draw the start at point guard in place of Ben Simmons, who will be utilized off the bench Monday evening. Schroder's last start dates back to Feb. 14, when he finished with four points, three rebounds and one assist over 18 minutes in Boston.
Feb 22, 2024
Struggles off bench Thursday
Schroder recorded four points (1-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists in 23 minutes during Thursday's 121-93 loss to Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Schroder reprised his bench role Thursday with Ben Simmons returning to the starting lineup. Schroder struggled in the loss as he missed six of his seven field goal attempts and finished the game tied with Mikal Bridges for the worst point differential of minus-30. Schroder is capable of producing more on the offensive side of the floor, but his opportunities will be limited in games in which he comes off the pine.
Feb 22, 2024
Returns to bench
Schroder isn't in the starting lineup for Thursday's game versus the Raptors, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Ben Simmons will replace Dennis Schroder in the starting lineup Thursday. Schroder is averaging 11.8 points, 5.8 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 28.0 minutes across his last five appearances coming off the bench.
Feb 15, 2024
Limited impact in start vs. Boston
Schroder had four points (2-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 18 minutes during Wednesday's 136-86 loss to Boston.
ANALYSIS
Schroder entered the starting lineup for Wednesday's contest with Ben Simmons (knee) sidelined for the second game of a back-to-back. Schroder wasn't able to get much going on the offensive side of the floor, but the same could be said for the team as a whole as Nets shot 38.3 percent from the field. Schroder's playing time following the All-Star break will largely depend on the availability of Simmons, and the former figures to oscillate between the starting lineup and bench for the rest of the regular season.
Feb 14, 2024
Making first start as Net
Schroder will join the first unit for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
In just his third game with Brooklyn, Schroder will enter the starting lineup, replacing Ben Simmons (knee) at the point guard slot. In his two appearances since being dealt to the Nets, Schroder is averaging 12.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 7.5 assists across 29.5 minutes.
Feb 11, 2024
Impresses off bench in team debut
Schroder amassed 15 points (6-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds and 12 assists over 27 minutes during Saturday's 123-103 victory over the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Schroder appeared in his first game with Brooklyn after being traded to the team last week, impressing in his first action with the Nets while leading all Brooklyn bench players in scoring and handing out a game-best assist total en route to a double-double performance. Schroder tied a season-high mark in assists while posting his seventh double-double performance of the year.
Feb 9, 2024
To make team debut Saturday
Schroder (recently traded) is available for Saturday's game against the Spurs, NBA writer Billy Reinhardt reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder didn't make his team debut Thursday since his trade was still pending, but he'll be able to don a Nets uniform during Saturday's matchup. He'll likely take on a starting role after Spencer Dinwiddie was traded to the Raptors, although it's also possible that Brooklyn tries to deploy Ben Simmons at point guard.
Feb 8, 2024
Headed to Brooklyn
The Raptors are trading Schroder to the Nets in exchange for Spencer Dinwiddie and Thaddeus Young on Thursday, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After starting 30 of the first 32 games of the season for Toronto, Schroder has seen his role decrease since the arrival of Immanuel Quickley. In the 19 games since, Schroder is averaging 12.2 points, 4.7 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 27.9 minutes across 19 appearances. The veteran point guard is still a quality playmaker and will likely start for the Nets after the departure of Dinwiddie.
Jan 31, 2024
Registers double-double in win
Schroder notched 16 points (5-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three rebounds, 10 assists, one block and two steals over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 118-107 victory over Chicago.
ANALYSIS
Schroder finished as one of six Toronto players with double-digit scoring, and he paced the team in assists. The veteran point guard's 10 dimes were his most since Dec. 27, and Schroder posted his first double-double since Dec. 11. He got his second straight start Tuesday due to RJ Barrett (knee) and Immanuel Quickley (quadriceps) being unable to suit up, which was a key factor in Schroder logging his most minutes over 15 contests in January.
Jan 28, 2024
Displays two-way play in start
Schroder posted 14 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six assists, four steals and three rebounds over 29 minutes in Sunday's 126-125 loss to Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Schroder got the starting nod with RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley inactive, leading all players in Sunday's contest in steals while dishing out a half-dozen assists and finishing as one of seven Raptors with a double-digit point total. Schroder has recorded at least 14 points and six assists in 12 games this season.
Jan 28, 2024
Moves into starting lineup
Schroder will start Sunday's game against the Hawks, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
With RJ Barrett joining Immanuel Quickley (quadriceps) on the sidelines, Schroder will move into the starting lineup. Across 31 starts this season, Schroder has averaged 15.0 points, 6.7 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 32.3 minutes per game.
Jan 23, 2024
Signs of life Monday
Schroder notched 11 points (3-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal across 22 minutes during Monday's 108-100 loss to Memphis.
ANALYSIS
Schroder entered Monday's contest having compiled 18 points and 14 assists on 7-for-18 shooting across his last three games. While his facilitation and efficiency continued to be lackluster Monday, his scoring volume received an uptick. Schoder remains a key component and tone setter in Toronto's rotation, but his fantasy stock is trending downward due to the continued acclimation of Immanuel Quickley.
Jan 11, 2024
Rejoins starting lineup
Schroder logged 22 points (8-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound and four assists over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 126-120 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
The Raptors continue to tinker with the starting lineup as they try to find the best fit after the addition of Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett. With Pascal Siakam (back) out, Quickley, Barrett and Scottie Barnes slid over to create a small-ball approach with Schroder manning the point. We may see similar schemes if Siakam remains out, as the loss of Jakob Poeltl (ankle) necessitates some frontcourt sacrifices.
Jan 10, 2024
Joins starting lineup
Schroder will start Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
Pascal Siakam (back) is joining Jakob Poeltl (ankle) on the sidelines, so the Raptors will roll with a smaller lineup with Thaddeus Young and Scottie Barnes in the frontcourt. As a starter this season, Schroder holds averages of 14.8 points, 6.8 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 1.7 three-pointers.
Jan 6, 2024
Leads bench in loss
Schroder closed with 18 points (7-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Friday's 135-130 loss to the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was third on the team in scoring behind Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley in Friday's loss. Schroder has come off the bench in five of his last six games, but is continuing to play meaningful minutes off the pine. He's averaging 14.0 points on 55.3 percent shooting, 3.6 rebounds and 7.0 assists over 30.8 minutes per game in a reserve role this season.
Jan 1, 2024
Retreats to bench
Schroder isn't starting Monday's game against the Cavaliers, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder picked up a spot start Saturday following a trade that sent O.G. Anunoby to New York, but he'll head back to the bench now that RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley are set to make their team debuts. Schroder made his presence felt on the offensive end in December, averaging 12.3 points to go along with 2.2 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.1 steals in 33.5 minutes (13 games).
Dec 31, 2023
Dazzles in starting role
Schroder closed with 30 points (11-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and nine assists across 37 minutes during Saturday's 129-127 loss to the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Schroder moved into the starting unit following the trade that sent OG Anunoby to the Knicks, though it remains to be seen if this was a one-time thing or if he'll stay in the first unit on a permanent basis. Either way, the veteran closed the calendar year on a strong note since this 30-point output was a season-high mark for him. Schroder is averaging 13.4 points, 7.4 assists and 2.1 rebounds per game over his last 10 appearances.
Dec 30, 2023
Joins starting five
Schroder is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pistons, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
The Raptors traded O.G. Anunoby to the Knicks as part of a package deal for Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett on Saturday, both of whom aren't yet available for Toronto. Despite Schroder's inclusion in the starting lineup Saturday, it wouldn't be surprising if he returned to the bench for Monday's game versus Cleveland with some increased competition coming to town.
Dec 27, 2023
Moves to bench
Schroder won't start Wednesday's game against Washington, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
For the first time this season, Schroder won't be in the Raptors' starting lineup. Gary Trent has taken Schroder's spot in the first five, but he'll be the shooting guard, while Scottie Barnes operates as the primary point guard. Schroder still figures to handle a rotational role off the bench, but his usage and playing time may take a hit with the move.
Dec 21, 2023
Hands out seven assists in loss
Schroder racked up seven points (3-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 113-104 loss to the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was fine as a distributor in the contest, leading the Raptors with seven dimes. However, he didn't make much of an impact as a scorer, taking just eight shots and finishing under 10 points for the fourth time in his past seven contests. Schroder's minutes have remained constant, but he's been looking for his shot much less of late, taking eight or fewer attempts in three straight contests. Prior to that stretch, he had posted double-digit field-goal tries in 13 consecutive games.
Dec 11, 2023
Double-doubles in loss
Schroder registered 20 points (6-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), two rebounds, 10 assists and four steals in 33 minutes during Monday's 136-130 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder recorded his sixth double-double of the season, scoring at least 20 points for the first time in almost three weeks. Locked in as the starting point guard in Toronto, Schroder is putting together a serviceable season, currently sitting just outside the top 100 in standard leagues. While he won't set the world on fire most nights, he does more than enough to warrant a roster spot in all formats.
Dec 6, 2023
Struggles in loss
Schroder provided nine points (4-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt), five rebounds and five assists in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 112-103 loss to Miami.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has now shot 33.3 percent or less from the field in four straight games and he was unable to crack double-digits points for the second time in three games. He's usually able to contribute in other ways, though his five assists Wednesday was below the 7.0 assists per game average he has on the year. Schroeder and the Raptors will look to bounce back Friday against the Hornets.
Dec 2, 2023
Nears double-double in loss
Schroder finished with 10 points (3-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound and nine assists across 37 minutes during Friday's 119-106 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder led all Raptors in assists while finishing one dime short of a double-double and ending as one of five players with a double-digit point total in a losing effort. Schroder has tallied at least 10 points and eight assists in seven games this year while handing out at least nine dimes in three straight contests.
Nov 30, 2023
Double-digit dimes in win
Schroder accumulated eight points (3-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, 12 assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 112-105 win over the Suns.
ANALYSIS
The 12 assists were a season high, and it's the first time Schroder has recorded double-digit dimes since Nov. 2. The 30-year guard is proving he can still handle a starting role in the NBA, and he's averaging a career-best 6.9 assists through 19 games while also contributing 16.2 points and 1.8 threes (his best showing in those categories since 2019-20), 3.1 boards and 0.9 steals a night.
Nov 29, 2023
Scores 14 points in loss
Schroder logged 14 points (5-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 115-103 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
It's worth mentioning that Schroder banged his left knee Tuesday, and at one point he was sporting a heavy wrap on the sidelines. However, he returned to play and seemed to be moving around well, so it appears that he was able to shake off the bruise. Schroder has done a solid job facilitating for the Raptors this season, as Tuesday was his fifth game of the campaign with at least nine assists.
Nov 27, 2023
Produces 15 points
Schroder logged 15 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, four assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Sunday's 105-102 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder continues to excel as Toronto's starting point guard, and Malachi Flynn has yet to put any real pressure on him for more minutes. Over the last six games, only Jakob Poeltl and Scottie Barnes have been ranked higher for the Raptors in nine-category leagues. In that span, Schroder is averaging 20.3 points, 4.7 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 2.3 three-pointers.
Nov 21, 2023
Scores team-high 24 points
Schroder ended Tuesday's 126-107 loss to Orlando with 24 points (8-13 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and one assist across 27 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was arguably the only positive on a night to forget for Toronto, scoring a team-high 24 points. He has now scored at least 17 points in three straight games, getting things back on track after tallying just 13 points across his previous two games. Despite the lack of overall upside, Schroder remains a must-roster player, due in part to the fact he has very little competition for minutes.
Nov 18, 2023
Plays well against Boston
Schroder ended Friday's 108-105 loss to the Celtics with 23 points (9-19 FG, 5-11 3Pt), seven rebounds and six assists over 35 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been a solid bargain for Toronto after signing a two-year, $25.42 million deal over the offseason. Schroder has appeared in all 12 games so far this campaign, compiling impressive averages of 15.5 points, 7.3 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.9 three-pointers.
Nov 15, 2023
Will play
Schroder (knee) will play Wednesday against the Bucks, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will suit up despite batting right knee soreness. Across his first 10 matchups with Toronto, the veteran point guard has averaged 15.4 points, 7.7 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 32.3 minutes per game.
Nov 15, 2023
Late addition to injury report
Schroder is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks due to right knee soreness.
ANALYSIS
Schroder wasn't listed on the Raptors' initial injury report Tuesday but is now in danger of missing his first contest of the season. The veteran point guard has been strong to start his first season in Toronto, averaging 15.4 points, 7.7 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 32.3 minutes per game, so his potential absence would leave a big hole in Toronto's rotation, especially given O.G. Anunoby (finger) and Gary Trent (foot) are both doubtful for Wednesday's contest.
Nov 12, 2023
Scores 14 points in loss
Schroder supplied 14 points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), one rebound, four assists and one steal in 25 minutes during Saturday's 117-94 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been a steady contributor for the Raptors, scoring in double digits in each one of his outings while also dishing out 10 or more assists four times. Even though this was one of his worst performances from a statistical perspective, he has a decent floor and should remain a solid asset in all formats. He has a relatively easy matchup against the Wizards on Monday.
Nov 5, 2023
Solid at both ends Sunday
Schroder chipped in 24 points (10-19 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals across 38 minutes during Sunday's 123-116 overtime victory over the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Schroder made his presence felt on both ends of the court but was particularly good as a scorer, as his 24 points tied his season-high mark, and it also meant he had scored at least 20 points in two of his last three outings. Schroder has excelled as Toronto's starting point guard this season after dishing out at least 10 assists in four of his first seven appearances.
Nov 2, 2023
Top distributor in double-double
Schroder supplied 13 points (4-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), three rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Thursday's 114-99 loss to the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder once again led Toronto as a floor general, leading all players in Thursday's contest in assists while posting a double-double in a loss to Philadelphia. Schroder has been the leading distributor for the Raptors this season, handing out 10 or more assists in four of his six outings while posting a double-double in all four of those contests.
Nov 2, 2023
Big double-double against Bucks
Schroder registered 24 points (9-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, 11 assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 130-111 win over Milwaukee.
ANALYSIS
The veteran guard is thriving in the starting point guard role for the Raptors, recording his third double-double in five games to begin his Toronto tenure. That's as many double-doubles as Schroder managed in the previous two seasons combined, and his career high is just 10, set with the Hawks in 2016-17. While Scottie Barnes and Pascal Siakam are also taking on more distribution duties as point-forwards this year, Schroder is finding more than enough opportunities to facilitate the offense, and he seems headed for career-best assist numbers in his age-30 season.
Oct 28, 2023
Notches double-double in loss
Schroder totaled 15 points (5-14 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, 10 assists and two steals in 35 minutes during Saturday's 114-107 loss to Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
It was the second straight double-double for Schroder, though he once again struggled from the field and has shot just 32 percent from the floor in his last two games. He did have 10 of his points in the fourth quarter, though he didn't shoot the ball particularly well in the frame as the Raptors struggled to get themselves within striking distance of the 76ers. Losers of two straight, Schroder and the Raps will look to bounce back Monday against the Trail Blazers.
Oct 26, 2023
Leads offense in season-opening win
Schroder registered 22 points (8-17 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and seven assists in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 97-94 win over the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Schroder led all Raptors players in scoring and assists while connecting on a team-high-tying mark from three in Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Timberwolves. Schroder, in his first season with Toronto this year, is coming off a 2022-23 campaign where he averaged 12.6 points, 4.5 assists and 2.5 rebounds in 66 appearances with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Oct 21, 2023
Double-digit dimes against Wizards
Schroder scored seven points (2-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding 11 assists and three rebounds in 23 minutes during Friday's 134-98 preseason win over the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
The veteran guard mainly left the scoring to Scottie Barnes (foot) and Pascal Siakam, instead dishing double-digit assists for the first time in four exhibition contests. Schroder is replacing Fred VanVleet as Toronto's starting point guard, but he's unlikely to replace FVV's production in that category over the long haul -- VanVleet averaged at least 6.3 assists a game in each of the last four seasons, topping out at a career-high 7.2 in 2022-23, while Schroder has surpassed 4.6 APG only once in the last five campaigns.
Oct 16, 2023
Scores seven in win
Schroder recorded seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three assists, two rebounds and one steal in 17 minutes during Sunday's 134-93 preseason win over Cairns.
ANALYSIS
Schroder started once again during Sunday's exhibition matchup but was held to a single-digit scoring total for a second consecutive matchup to begin the preseason. The 30-year-old joined Toronto during the offseason after averaging 12.6 points, 4.5 assists and 2.5 rebounds in 30.1 minutes per game with the Lakers last year, and he appears to be the favorite to start at point guard to begin the 2023-24 regular season.
Jun 30, 2023
Headed to Toronto
Schroder agreed to join the Raptors on a two-year, $26 million contract on Friday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.
ANALYSIS
With Fred VanVleet joining the Rockets on a max deal, the Raptors quickly pivoted to Schroder. There could be more deals to come, but Schroder is currently the favorite to start at point guard in Toronto. With the Lakers last season, Schroder appeared in 66 games and put up averages of 12.6 points, 4.5 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.1 three-pointers.
May 22, 2023
Set to start Monday
Schroder is in the starting lineup for Monday's Game 4 against Denver, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will replace D'Angelo Russell in the starting five Monday. Schroder is averaging 4.5 points, 5.0 assists and 2.5 rebounds in 28.5 minutes across his previous two appearances coming off the bench this postseason.
May 21, 2023
Muted performance in loss
Schroder recorded five points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one assist and one steal in 25 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 119-108 loss to the Nuggets in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals.
ANALYSIS
Schroder failed to offer anything of note in the Game 3 loss and sadly for the Lakers, he wasn't the only one. While he has had a few nice moments throughout the playoffs, his inability to provide consistent production remains an issue. No team has ever come back to win a series after trailing 3-0, something the Lakers will have to do should they hope to continue their season.
May 18, 2023
Moves to bench
Schroder will come off the bench for Game 2 versus the Nuggets on Thursday, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
A lineup change was expected for Thursday night and this one isn't a huge surprise. With Jarred Vanderbilt entering the starting five, the Lakers suddenly have another defensive presence to slow down Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray.
May 13, 2023
Ejected from Game 6
Schroder was ejected from Game 6 against the Warriors on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was already on a technical foul when he had a mild altercation with Draymond Green in which the Golden State forward pushed a ball into his face. Schroder finished the night with three points, five assists and two rebounds in 25 minutes.
May 12, 2023
Moves into starting lineup
Schroder will move into the starting lineup for Game 6 against the Warriors on Friday, ESPN's Dave McMenamin reports.
ANALYSIS
Jarred Vanderbilt will be moving to the bench, so the Lakers are going with a much smaller lineup Friday evening. An adjustment isn't a big surprise, as the Warriors have already committed to small ball and have been turning to Gary Payton quite a bit.
May 11, 2023
Meaningful minutes again in loss
Schroder totaled 14 points (6-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds and four assists in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 121-106 loss to Golden State in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
ANALYSIS
Schroder continues to play a pivotal role for the Lakers despite coming off the bench, logging 29 minutes in the loss. The coaching staff has opted to go away from Jarred Vanderbilt of late, choosing instead to run with guys like Schroder and Lonnie Walker. The series will now head back to Los Angeles for Game 6, and should the Lakers emerge victorious, they will advance to the Western Conference Finals to face either the Nuggets or the Suns.
May 3, 2023
Scores 19 points off bench
Schroder finished Tuesday's 117-112 win over the Warriors in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals with 19 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 9-10 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 31 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder scored 13 first-half points and finished tied with D'Angelo Russell for third on the team in scoring behind Anthony Davis (30) and LeBron James (22). The backup point guard's 19 points were his most so far in the playoffs, and it appears he has a more favorable matchup in Round 2 than he did against Memphis. Either way, Schroder remains a streaky scorer, so it may be a stretch to expect this type of production from him moving forward.
Apr 28, 2023
Listed available for Friday
Schroder (Achilles) is listed as available for Game 6 versus the Grizzlies on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was carrying a probable tag into Friday's game, but the Lakers waited until the final injury report to give him the green light. Look for Schroder to see his usual workload as the Lakers seek to defeat the Grizzlies and move on to the next round.
Apr 27, 2023
Lands probable designation
Schroder (right Achilles soreness) is probable for Friday's Game 6 versus Memphis, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been playing through a lingering Achilles issue throughout the entirety of the Western Conference Quarterfinals and pops up on the injury report once again due to the injury. Though Schroder has averaged 21.9 minutes per game in the series, he has been held scoreless twice and remains a tough player to trust in fantasy formats due to his inconsistency.
Apr 26, 2023
Suiting up for Game 5
Schroder (Achilles) is available for Game 5 against the Grizzlies on Wednesday, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been upgraded to available Wednesday alongside LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Schroder is coming off his best game of the series, posting 12 points, two blocks, two steals and one assist in 30 minutes during Game 4.
Apr 25, 2023
Likely to play Wednesday
Schroder (Achilles) is probable for Game 4 versus the Grizzlies on Wednesday, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has played in all four games this series despite consistently receiving probable tags due to a nagging Achilles injury. If he's upgraded to available once again, he should receive roughly 20 minutes of action behind D'Angelo Russell as the backup point guard.
Apr 24, 2023
Available for Game 4
Schroder (foot) will be available for Game 4 versus Memphis on Monday, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder continues to play through the foot issue, and he'll again be a key reserve off the bench. Through the first three games of this series, Schroder has registered averages of 4.7 points, 3.3 assists and 2.0 turnovers per contest on 35.7 percent shooting.
Apr 23, 2023
Tabbed as probable
Schroder (foot) is probable for Monday's Game 4 against Memphis.
ANALYSIS
Schroder, LeBron James (foot) and Anthony Davis (foot) all continue to be listed as probable, but they've all suited up for each postseason game and will likely do so again Monday. After posting 21 points in the Lakers' Play-In Game against Memphis, Schroder has been limited during the opening-round series, posting just 4.7 points and 3.3 assists in 20.0 minutes per game.
Apr 22, 2023
Available Saturday
Schroder (Achilles) is available and will play Game 3 against the Grizzlies on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
The veteran point guard has been dealing with right Achilles soreness, but he won't have problems featuring off the bench in Game 3 of the series with the Lakers starting D'Angelo Russell and Austin Reaves in the backcourt once again.
Apr 21, 2023
Likely to play Saturday
Schroder is probable for Game 3 against the Grizzlies due to right Achilles soreness.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been receiving probable tags due to his lingering Achilles injury but has played in both contests to start the series. He is averaging 3.5 points, 3.5 assists and 1.0 rebounds in 18.0 minutes in the first two games.
Apr 19, 2023
Good to go Wednesday
Schroder (foot) is available for Game 2 against the Grizzlies on Wednesday, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder, along with LeBron James and Anthony Davis, has been upgraded from probable to available Wednesday. Schroder should continue to play the backup point guard role behind D'Angelo Russell and doesn't seem to be limited by his nagging foot injury.
Apr 18, 2023
Deemed probable for Game 2
Schroder has been termed probable for Game 2 despite right foot soreness, Harrison Faigen of SBNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder joins LeBron James (foot) and Anthony Davis (foot) on the probable train for Wednesday, but there is little to worry about for any of the trio leading up to the tilt, barring a change in status for some reason. Shroder logged 20 minutes off the bench in Game 1 and produced seven points, four assists and a board, and he should continue to provide depth on the ball behind D'Angelo Russell on Wednesday.
Apr 16, 2023
Upgraded to available
Schroder (Achilles) is available for Sunday's Game 1 against the Grizzlies, Harrison Faigen of SBNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Schroder, along with LeBron James (foot) and Anthony Davis (foot), has been upgraded from probable to available and will suit up for the first-round series opener. The point guard was excellent during the Lakers' Play-In Tournament win over the Timberwolves on Tuesday, posting 21 points, four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 33 minutes.
Apr 15, 2023
Probable for Game 1
Schroder is dealing with right Achilles soreness but has been listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies, Harrison Faigen of SBNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was given Friday off and returned to Saturday's practice, and while he is not at 100 percent, he shouldn't have problems featuring in the season opener. Schroder averaged 12.6 points, 4.5 assists and 2.5 rebounds per game during the regular season.
Apr 15, 2023
Back at practice Saturday
Schroder was active at Saturday's practice after being held out of Friday's practice precautionarily, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Darvin Ham gave Schroder the day off Friday after the guard missed the Lakers' final two games of the regular season with an Achilles issue. However, it looks like Schroder will be good to go for Game 1 of the Western Conference First Round against the Grizzlies considering he was back at practice Saturday.
Apr 14, 2023
Held out of Friday's practice
Head coach Darvin Ham said Schroder was held out of Friday's practice for "precautionary" reasons, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
After sitting out the final two games of the regular season due to an Achilles issue, Schroder was fantastic during the Lakers' Play-In Tournament win over Minnesota on Tuesday, posting 21 points (5-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, two assists a steal in 33 minutes. It doesn't sound like the point guard is in any danger of missing Sunday's Game 1 clash in Memphis, but further clarity on his absence from practice Friday should surface when Los Angeles releases its injury report Saturday.
Apr 12, 2023
Steps up in overtime thriller
Schroder ended with 21 points (5-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 108-102 overtime play-in game victory over the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Schroder made a few huge plays down the stretch, including the go-ahead three-pointer with just 1.4 seconds remaining in regulation. Unfortunately, Mike Conley was able to once again tie the game with three crucial free throws, before the Lakers were able to emerge triumphant following an overtime period. Schroder ended with 21 points, cobbling together his best game in quite some time. While he continues to come off the bench, the coaching staff is obviously comfortable handing him starter minutes if and when the situation arises.
Apr 10, 2023
No longer on injury report
Schroder (Achilles) isn't on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's play-in game against Minnesota, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed his team's final two contests of the regular season while dealing with an Achilles injury, but he'll be ready to roll for the play-in game. He averaged 13.0 points, 2.3 rebounds and 4.7 assists over 18 March appearances.
Apr 9, 2023
Out Sunday
Schroder has been ruled out for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Jazz due to soreness in his right Achilles.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will miss his second straight game, which should result in more minutes for Malik Beasley and Lonnie Walker. Schroder's injury seems relatively minor, so he should be good to go for the Lakers' postseason run.
Apr 8, 2023
Questionable vs. Jazz
Schroder (neck) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Jazz, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder sat out Friday's win over the Suns with neck soreness. D'Angelo Russell (foot) is probable, which helps the Lakers' backcourt situation if Schroder is ruled out.
Apr 7, 2023
Ruled out against Suns
Schroder (neck) will not play against the Suns on Friday according to ESPN's Dave McMenamin.
ANALYSIS
Lakers coach Darvin Ham said Schroder is dealing with extreme neck soreness from general wear and tear. D'Angelo Russell (foot) is listed as probable and could see a significant workload if he gets the green light.
Apr 7, 2023
Downgraded to questionable
Schroder (neck) has been downgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Suns according to Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times.
ANALYSIS
LeBron James (foot) and Anthony Davis (foot) remain questionable, while D'Angelo Russell (foot) is probable. Schroder is difficult to trust in fantasy basketball when the Lakers are close to full strength, as he played just 13 minutes on Wednesday against the Clippers.
Apr 5, 2023
Off the bench
Schroder will return to the second unit for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
D'Angelo Russell (foot) is back after a one-game absence, so he'll return to his usual spot in the first unit, which means Schroder's minutes will likely return to the lower-20s. He's not the most attractive fantasy option with the main guys in L.A. healthy.
Apr 5, 2023
Scores 18 in spot start
Schroder logged 18 points (7-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 42 minutes during Tuesday's 135-133 overtime win over Utah.
ANALYSIS
With D'Angelo Russell (foot) out, Schroder was back in the starting lineup Tuesday, and despite inefficient shooting, he still delivered solid production and made a contribution in every major statistical category. As a starter (50 games), Schroder has averaged 13.5 points and 5.0 assists per game, but as a reserve (15 games), the veteran point guard has posted just 10.3 points and 3.1 assists.
Apr 4, 2023
Back with first unit
Schroder will start Tuesday's game against the Jazz, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will draw another start with D'Angelo Russell sidelined with a foot injury, making it three starts in Schroder's last six appearances. In his other two starts, he averaged 19.0 points, 5.5 assists and 2.0 steals over 35.4 minutes.
Mar 29, 2023
Shifts back to bench
Schroder will rejoin the reserves for Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will slide back to the second unit for Wednesday's tilt after a two-game stint in the starting lineup. Over that stretch, Schroder averaged 19.0 points, 5.5 assists, and 2.0 steals in 35.5 minutes per game but should see a significantly smaller role with the Lakers at full health.
Mar 25, 2023
Makes key plays in starting role
Schroder chipped in 21 points (8-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals across 37 minutes during Friday's 116-111 win over the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Schroder moved into the starting lineup Friday with D'Angelo Russell out due to a hip injury, and the former came up big in a game with significant implications on the Western Conference playoff picture. Schroder finished with his highest point total in two weeks, and he did much of that damage late in the contest, scoring 13 of his 21 points in the fourth quarter. The veteran point guard is a major part of the Lakers' rotation even as a reserve, but he could see his fantasy value increase further if Russell needs to miss additional time.
Mar 24, 2023
Starting Friday
Schroder will start at point guard in Friday's game against the Thunder, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is starting in place of D'Angelo Russell (hip). He has averaged 13.1 points, 2.8 rebounds and 5.0 assists across 32.1 minutes in 47 games as a starter this season. In comparison, he averages 11.2 points, 1.6 rebounds and 3.0 assists across 24.3 minutes coming off the bench.
Mar 18, 2023
Solid production in loss
Schroder chipped in 15 points (7-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and five assists across 30 minutes during Friday's 111-110 loss to the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Despite coming off the bench, Schroder was one of four Lakers to log 30-plus minutes Friday. The veteran point guard finished second on the team in assists and third in scoring while shooting an efficient 7-for-13 from the field. Schroder has continued to produce steadily since returning to a reserve role, averaging 14.2 points, 3.2 assists, 1.8 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 26.6 minutes over his past five games.
Mar 11, 2023
Posts 23 points off bench
Schroder provided 23 points (8-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, seven assists and four steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 122-112 victory over the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Schroder returned to a reserve role Friday with D'Angelo Russell back in action, but that didn't prevent him from putting up a standout stat line. Schroder actually logged two more minutes than Russell in the contest and finished second on the team (behind Russell) in both scoring and assists. For good measure, Schroder made his presence felt on the defensive end, recording a team-high four thefts, tying his best mark of the campaign. It remains to be seen if Russell's return will eventually cut into Schroder's production, but Friday's contest showed that it is possible for both players to play a major role in the Lakers' game plan.
Mar 10, 2023
Moves to bench
Schroder will move to the bench Friday against Toronto, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
D'Angelo Russell (ankle) is back from a six-game absence, so this move isn't a surprise. With Austin Reaves thriving as the sixth man in Los Angeles, Schroder's fantasy value could take a big hit.
Mar 9, 2023
Returning to bench
Coach Darvin Ham said Thursday that Schroder won't be in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Raptors, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
D'Angelo Russell will replace Schroder in the starting five Friday after missing the previous six games with an ankle injury. However, Ham mentioned that Schroder will still be in the mix to finish games, meaning that he should still receive significant minutes off the bench.
Mar 8, 2023
Flirts with double-double
Schroder ended Tuesday's 112-103 victory over the Grizzlies with 17 points (5-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, nine assists and one steal over 35 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder logged 35 minutes with D'Angelo Russell (ankle) sidelined. Russell is slated to return for Friday's game against the Raptors, and while Schroder will often be the first man off the bench, a slight dip in production should be expected.
Mar 3, 2023
Cleared to play
Schroder (ankle) has been cleared to play Friday against Minnesota, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
No surprises here with Schroder carrying a probable tag prior to this update. With D'Angelo Russell (ankle) and LeBron James (foot) out, Schroder will likely be a big part of the offense once again and is coming off a 26-point showing against the Thunder on March 1.
Mar 2, 2023
Likely to play Friday
Schroder is listed as probable for Friday's meeting with the Timberwolves due to a left ankle sprain, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder tweaked his ankle in Wednesday's game but managed to stay in the game and finish with a team-high 26 points. With the Lakers already shorthanded in the backcourt, fantasy managers should expect Schroder to be back in the starting lineup for a fourth consecutive contest Friday.
Mar 2, 2023
Overcomes injury scare to pace team
Schroder chipped in 26 points (8-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), two rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals across 37 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday's 123-117 victory over the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Schroder appeared to injure his left ankle in the first quarter, but the veteran point guard was able to stay in the game. He had a quiet first half before perking up considerably after halftime, scoring 22 points over the final two periods to finish with a team-high 26. His offense was much-needed in a critical game in the Lakers' push for a playoff spot with each of LeBron James (foot), Anthony Davis (foot) and D'Angelo Russell (ankle) sitting out. This was Schroder's first time hitting the 20-point threshold since he scored 26 against the Warriors on Feb. 11.
Feb 26, 2023
Dishes game-high eight assists
Schroder ended with 16 points (5-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), one rebound and eight assists over 35 minutes during Sunday's 111-108 victory over the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder played a solid role for the Lakers in the first half, scoring seven points on 2-of-6 shooting from the field while adding three assists. He chipped in another nine points in the second half, but it was his five assists in the fourth quarter that really stood out in helping Los Angeles complete the improbable comeback on the road. Schroder dished out a game-high eight dimes on the night and knocked down all of his free throws for the second straight game. He's also scored in double figures in three straight, shooting 52.1 percent from the field over that stretch.
Feb 26, 2023
Starting Sunday
Schroder will start Sunday's game against the Mavericks, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
With D'Angelo Russell (ankle) out, Schroder will slide back into the starting lineup Sunday. Schroder is averaging 13.0 points, 2.8 rebounds and 4.4 assists as a starter this season (41 games).
Feb 16, 2023
Scores 10 off bench
Schroder ended with 10 points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-6 FT), one rebound and two assists in 20 minutes during Wednesday's 120-102 win over New Orleans.
ANALYSIS
Schroder tallied just two points as a starter during Monday's loss to the Trail Blazers, and he shifted to the bench for the Lakers' final game before the All-Star break. He had more success from the floor Wednesday despite attempting just four field goals, his third-lowest mark of the season. The 29-year-old had started in 41 of his 44 appearances this year prior to Wednesday's matchup, but he'll likely have more appearances as a reserve now that D'Angelo Russell and Malik Beasley are in the fold.
Feb 15, 2023
Not starting Wednesday
Schroder will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Darvin Ham hinted at switching up the first five Wednesday and will send Schroder to the reserves to be the second unit's primary ball handler. Although he will likely see fewer minutes in the contest, Schroder should be in line for a higher usage rate and more facilitation opportunities.
Feb 12, 2023
Pours in 26 points
Schroder finished Saturday's 109-103 victory over the Warriors with 26 points (7-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 9-11 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 30 minutes.
ANALYSIS
In the aftermath of the trade deadline, the backcourt tandem of Schroder and D'Angelo Russell figures to be the way forward for the Lakers. Schroder posted his fourth-highest scoring total of the season alongside his new teammate, and with Russell's efficacy as a ball distributor, Schroder's off-the-ball opportunities are likely to increase. Saturday's win erased most doubts about Schroder's usage amid the recent influx of talent.
Feb 10, 2023
Shines in loss Thursday
Schroder racked up 25 points (10-17 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, 12 assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Thursday's 115-106 loss to Milwaukee.
ANALYSIS
The Lakers were severely shorthanded Thursday with all of their trade-deadline acquisitions not ready to play and LeBron James out with a sort left ankle. Schroder stepped up to help keep the game competitive, leading Los Angeles in scoring and assists en route to his first double-double of the campaign. It was a nice bounce-back performance for the veteran point guard, as he had averaged just 10.0 points on 34.6 percent shooting from the field over his previous eight games. However, he'll likely move to a bench role as soon as new teammate D'Angelo Russell is ready to suit up, which will likely be Saturday against Golden State.
Jan 31, 2023
Can't find shot Monday
Schroder posted 10 points (2-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds and five assists in 34 minutes during Monday's 121-104 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was able to reach double-digit points for the second straight game Monday, but that was largely due to his five free-throw makes. The point guard struggled massively from the field, making just two of 15 tries. It was his worst shooting effort in what has been an ugly 10-game stretch during which he has hit just 32.1 percent of his shot attempts while averaging 11.1 points, 4.3 assists, 3.8 boards and 1.1 steals across 33.9 minutes.
Jan 23, 2023
Goes for 24 in comeback win
Schroder produced 24 points (6-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 10-10 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Sunday's 121-112 win over the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
The Lakers pulled a huge comeback Sunday, and Schroder played a significant role in the win, finishing as a valuable contributor on both ends of the court. Schroder had a tough stretch between Jan. 12 and Jan. 18 with four straight single-digit scoring numbers, but he's been quite good this month with averages of 16.5 points, 4.0 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.0 steals per game across 11 January appearances.
Jan 21, 2023
Caps big game with winning hoop
Schroder logged 19 points (4-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 10-11 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, one block and three steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 122-121 win over the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
While Schroder didn't shoot well Friday, he was productive across multiple categories, supplementing his 19 points with eight assists, three steals and a season-high eight rebounds. The veteran point guard's biggest bucket came with under 10 seconds remaining, when he stripped Desmond Bane near midcourt and drove the ball to the hoop for an and-one that game the Lakers a two-point lead. Schroder had been struggling coming into the contest, so this was a nice bounce-back performance that could get him back on track. Over his previous four contests, he had averaged just 7.3 points on 29.7 percent shooting over 32.0 minutes.
Jan 16, 2023
Does little in loss
Schroder ended Sunday's 113-112 loss to Philadelphia with eight points (3-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and three assists over 31 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder gave way quickly to Russell Westbrook in Sunday's loss. The veteran guard was expected to have more of an impact during Patrick Beverley's (illness) absence, but Schroder's production has actually regressed significantly over the past two games. After seven consecutive games with double-digit scoring, he's only mustered a total of 15 points over his past two contests.
Jan 8, 2023
Sinks game-winning free throws
Schroder provided 27 points (8-11 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 38 minutes during Saturday's 136-134 victory over the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had an excellent evening, capped by cinching the contest at the charity stripe. Wven though Russell Westbrook came off the bench to collect 15 assists, Schroder aptly directed the offense and had one of his best scoring performances of the season. We often saw Schroder and Westbrook share the backcourt, and though the Lakers like the energy of Patrick Beverley in the starting lineup, a Schroder-Westbrook backcourt seems to be a better fit for the offense.
Jan 5, 2023
Leads LeBron-less Lakers to win
Schroder amassed 32 points (8-15 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 12-14 FT), four rebounds, two assists and four steals in 40 minutes during Wednesday's 112-109 victory over Miami.
ANALYSIS
The Lakers were once again without Anthony Davis (foot) and also faced Miami without LeBron James, who sat out with a non-COVID illness. They were nonetheless able to pull out the victory on the strength of big contributions by Schroder, who led the team with a season-high 32 points on efficient shooting from both the field and the charity stripe. The veteran point guard came up especially big when it mattered most, putting up 14 points in the fourth quarter, including six points in the final 45 seconds. Schroder was also a menace on defense, racking up a season-high four steals and helping to hold Tyler Herro to just nine points. Schroder will likely take a back seat when James is able to return, but he should continue to take on an important role as a secondary scorer and playmaker -- over his past four games, he's averaging 18.5 points and 4.5 assists per contest.
Dec 31, 2022
Nine dimes in victory Friday
Schroder produced 12 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, nine assists and three steals across 32 minutes during Friday's 130-121 victory over Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Schroder handed out a season-high nine assists in the victory, turning in one of his better performances in recent memory. Despite stepping into a more significant role over the past two weeks, Schroder has been unable to produce at a consistent level. He is outside the top 200 over that span, offering upside in assists and free throw percentage only.
Dec 30, 2022
Good to go against Atlana
Schroder (foot) is available for Friday's game versus the Hawks, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been upgraded from probable to available Friday with left foot soreness. The 29-year-old guard has started in all of his last 18 appearances.
Dec 29, 2022
Probable Friday
Schroder (foot) is probable for Friday's game against Atlanta, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder continues to deal with a sore left foot, but it appears likely that he'll be able to play through the issue once again Friday. Over his last five appearances, he's averaged 11.2 points, 3.2 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 29.6 minutes per game.
Dec 29, 2022
Puts up 15 points in loss
Schroder racked up 15 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds and two assists over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 112-98 loss to Miami.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was coming off three straight single-digit scoring efforts, and while he bounced back here, this wasn't enough to carry the Lakers to victory. The veteran point guard is firmly entrenched as a starter for Los Angeles, but he's not producing enough to be valuable in fantasy outside of the deepest formats. He's averaging 11.6 points, 3.6 assists and 2.4 rebounds across 28.3 minutes per game in December.
Dec 28, 2022
Upgraded to available
Schroder (foot) will play in Wednesday's matchup with Miami, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder and Austin Reaves (ankle) have both been upgraded to available Wednesday. The veteran point guard should remain in the starting lineup.
Dec 28, 2022
Likely to play Wednesday
Schroder (foot) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Harrison Faigen of SBNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder also dealt with a sore left foot ahead of Tuesday's game against the Magic, and he tallied seven points, two rebounds, two assists and a steal in 28 minutes. He'll likely be able to play through the issue once again Wednesday.
Dec 27, 2022
Good to go Tuesday
Schroder (foot) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Magic, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was upgraded from probable to available Tuesday. Expect the veteran guard to remain in the starting lineup and play his usual 25-30 minutes.
Dec 26, 2022
Likely to play Tuesday
Schroder is probable to play in Tuesday's matchup with the Magic due to left foot soreness, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will likely start if he's able to play Tuesday, as he has in his last 16 appearances. The 29-year-old guard is averaging 15.2 points, 4.3 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 29.2 minutes across his last six games.
Dec 20, 2022
Pours in 30 points
Schroder closed Monday's 130-104 loss to the Suns with 30 points (12-19 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and four assists over 29 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder led his team in scoring on a night his team was without LeBron James (ankle), Russell Westbrook (foot) and Anthony Davis (foot), but it wasn't nearly enough in a 130-104 blowout loss. His best play took place in the second quarter, shooting 4-for-5 from the field, 1-for-1 from downtown and 1-for-1 from the free-throw line while also adding an assist and a rebound. Schroder is now averaging 10.3 points, 1.9 rebounds and 3.8 assists through 16 contests this season.
Dec 5, 2022
Eight helpers in start Sunday
Schroder supplied four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 30 minutes during Sunday's 130-119 win over the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was a non-factor on the offensive end but did manage to deliver eight assists for anyone who streamed him in. While this isn't the most inspiring fantasy line, the 30 minutes are encouraging, especially given the Lakers were at full strength. It appears as though they are going to run with him as a starter for the foreseeable future, meaning he could have some backend value for anyone in need of dimes.
Dec 4, 2022
Starting Sunday
Schroder (personal) is available for Sunday's game against the Wizards and will be in the starting lineup, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
The 29-year-old missed Friday's matchup with Milwaukee for the birth of his son but is back with the team Sunday and will start in his fifth straight appearance. Schroder has averaged 11.0 points, 2.5 rebounds and 5.0 assists in 29.8 minutes during that stretch.
Dec 4, 2022
Will play Sunday
Schroder has been upgraded to available for Sunday's game against the Wizards, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed the Lakers' previous game due to the birth of his baby boy Thursday, but he should be ready to return and assume his regular starting role. The veteran floor general has started in four of his seven appearances this season and is averaging 8.4 points, 3.6 assists and 1.7 rebounds per contest.
Dec 3, 2022
Officially questionable Sunday
Schroder (personal) is Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com for Friday's game against the Wizards, Ryan Ward reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been away from the team after he and his wife welcomed a baby boy Thursday. If he remains out Sunday, Patrick Beverley and Russell Westbrook would likely see extended run.
Dec 2, 2022
Won't play Friday
Schroder (personal) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bucks, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder and his wife welcomed a baby boy Thursday, so Schroder will be unavailable for at least one game. Patrick Beverley, Russell Westbrook and Kendrick Nunn are candidates to see increased roles against Milwaukee.

Questionable Friday
Schroder is questionable for Friday's game at Milwaukee due to personal reasons, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's wife is pregnant and is due to give birth very soon, so the point guard's availability may be in question until that happens. If Schroder misses time, more minutes will be available for Patrick Beverley, Russell Westbrook and Kendrick Nunn.
Nov 27, 2022
Best scoring performance so far
Schroder closed Saturday's 143-138 victory over the Spurs with 21 points (6-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds and six assists across 31 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder scored a season-high 21 points as he drew his second straight start in place of Patrick Beverley. The former first-round pick looked sharp from the field and scored nine of his 21 points from beyond the arc. Schroder figures to be in line for at least one more start while Beverley finishes out his three-game suspension Monday against the Pacers.
Nov 25, 2022
Starting Friday
Schroder will enter the starting five Friday against the Spurs, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is the starting point guard for the Lakers' Friday meeting with San Antonio, replacing Patrick Beverley, who is serving the first of a three-game suspension. Schroder can be considered a streaming option for as long as he remains in the starting lineup.
Nov 23, 2022
Held scoreless across 20 minutes
Schroder closed with zero points (0-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one assist and one steal across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 115-105 loss to Phoenix.
ANALYSIS
Schroder made his season debut last Friday and struggled across 16 minutes of action, but he bounced back Sunday with a quality 13-point performance. However, the backup point guard couldn't maintain his momentum and fell flat against the Suns. Schroder has plenty of competition for playing time, so his early struggles could be detrimental to his chances of carving out a role in the Lakers' rotation.
Nov 19, 2022
Plays 15 minutes in debut
Schroder recorded two points (1-5 FG, 0-1 3PT) and two assists across 15 minutes in his season debut.
ANALYSIS
Schroder finally made his debut for his second stint with the Lakers. He did not really make an impact during his 15 minutes on the court, but it will likely take a little time for him to find his role with the team. It remains to be seen what type of workload coach Darvin Ham has in mind for him once he gets back into the swing of things.
Nov 17, 2022
Not on injury report
Schroder (thumb) will be available for Friday's game against the Pistons, NBA writer Marc Stein reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's debut comes at a good time for the Lakers, with Max Christie (COVID-19 protocols) out and both LeBron James (groin) and Juan Toscano-Anderson (back) questionable Friday. Although Schroder's exact role in the backcourt remains to be seen, he isn't expected to be under many restrictions due to the nature of his injury. His return will likely cut into the workload of Russell Westbrook and Kendrick Nunn.
Nov 16, 2022
Full participant in practice
Schroder (thumb) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice session, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is expected to make his season debut Friday against the Pistons, and he seems to be trending toward making that a reality by fully participating in practice Wednesday. The 29-year-old will presumably be monitored in the coming days to see how his surgically repaired thumb responds to his increased work, but it seems likely that he'll be active against Detroit on Friday.
Nov 14, 2022
Could debut Friday
Teammate Lonnie Walker said after Sunday's win over the Nets that Schroder (thumb) is expected to make his season debut in the Lakers' next game Friday against the Pistons, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Both Schroder and big man Thomas Bryant have missed the Lakers' first 13 games of the season while recovering from their respective thumb surgeries, but if Walker's comments are accurate, Los Angeles could be back at full strength for the first time all season later this week. When Schroder re-signed with the Lakers on a minimum deal in mid-September, his role heading into the 2022-23 season wasn't immediately clear. However, with Russell Westbrook having since moved into the sixth-man role and with Patrick Beverley offering little on the offensive end upon shifting from an off-ball role to point guard, the Lakers could be inclined to give Schroder a look with the first unit. Before the Lakers decide on whether Schroder will be able to make his season debut Friday, the team will likely re-evaluate him during practices over the next few days to ensure that his surgically repaired right thumb has fully healed.
Oct 17, 2022
Out 3-to-4 weeks with thumb injury
Schroder (thumb) will be sidelined for three-to-four weeks after undergoing surgery Monday to address a ligament injury in his thumb, Dave McMenamin of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The hits are already starting to come for a Lakers team that's extremely thin on reliable depth behind LeBron James and Anthony Davis. With Schroder sidelined for the first few weeks of the regular season, Los Angeles will lean heavily on Patrick Beverley and Kendrick Nunn in the backcourt alongside Russell Westbrook, whose ultimate role is yet to be determined. Schroder signed with the Lakers in September after splitting last season between Boston and Houston. Across 64 appearances, Schroder averaged 13.5 points, 4.6 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 0.8 steals while shooting 34.4 percent from deep.
Oct 16, 2022
Considered day-to-day
Lakers head coach Devin Ham said Schroder is considered day-to-day with a thumb injury, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed the Lakers' preseason finale due to a thumb issue, leaving his status for Tuesday's regular-season contest in question. Fellow point guard Russell Westbrook (hamstring) is also questionable, so Patrick Beverley and Kendrick Nunn could operate as Los Angeles' top guards to start the campaign.
Oct 14, 2022
Status to begin season in question
Schroder is dealing with a finger injury, and his status for Tuesday's regular-season opener is in question, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed the start of the preseason due to visa issues but played Wednesday against Minnesota and recorded zero points (0-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and a rebound in nine minutes. He'll be unavailable for Friday's preseason finale against the Kings and is undergoing further testing to determine the severity of his injury and a potential return timetable.
Oct 12, 2022
Set to play Wednesday
Schroder is available to play in Wednesday's preseason matchup with Minnesota, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports
ANALYSIS
Schroder will have the opportunity to make his preseason debut after having visa issues. Schroder will likely be limited in his first game back but should be ready for the regular season. The German guard is in line to be one of the Lakers' top guards off the bench this season.
Oct 10, 2022
Should play Wednesday
Lakers head coach Devin Ham said Schroder practiced Monday and should get a few minutes during Wednesday's exhibition game, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was late to join the team following his play for Germany in EuroBasket 2022 due to visa issues, but as expected, he returned to the team Monday and is in line to play Wednesday against Golden State. Ham said Schroder will likely be limited during his first game action with the team this year, so they can ramp him up for the regular season.
Oct 8, 2022
Should join practice Monday
Schroder (not injury related) is in Los Angeles but is taking a physical and not practicing Saturday, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports. He's expected to join in on practice Monday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder can thus presumably be ruled out as an option for Sunday''s preseason contest against the Warriors. He'll have a pair of preseason contests to acclimate with his teammates before the regular season begins Oct. 18 versus the Warriors.
Oct 6, 2022
Set to return to team
Schroder (not injury related) is set to fly to Los Angeles soon, his status for Sunday's contest against Golden State is to be determined, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was dealing with a visa issue which has just been resolved, so the guard will return to his team as soon as possible. The 29-year-old will be unavailable Thursday against the Timberwolves, but he has a chance to play Sunday against the Warriors.
Oct 5, 2022
Remains out Wednesday
Schroder (not injury related) will miss Wednesday's preseason game versus the Suns, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is working out visa issues, but is expected to join the team soon. Once he returns, he will be competing for minutes in the guard rotation with Patrick Beverley, Austin Reaves and Kendrick Nunn.
Oct 1, 2022
Expects to join team soon
Schroder (not injury related) is expected to join the team early this week, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been in Germany while working through visa issues. His return sounds imminent, so he should have plenty of time to work with the team in camp and carve out a role for himself. He's one of multiple backcourt options the Lakers figure to toy with in preseason in an attempt to figure out the best lineup combinations.
Oct 1, 2022
Expects to join team soon
Schroder (not injury related) is expected to joing the team early this week, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been in Germany while working through visa issues. His return sounds imminent, so he should have plenty of time to work with the team in camp and carve out a role for himself. As of now, he projects to provide depth in the Lakers' backcourt this season.
Sep 27, 2022
Working through visa issues
Schroder remains in Germany while working on a visa issue, but the Lakers hope to have him in the fold within the next week, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's availability for the preseason opener against the Kings next Monday could be questioned. However, the issue doesn't appear to be a factor in his availability to begin the 2022-23 regular season. At this point, though, Schroder is missing some valuable reps in training camp.

Working through visa issues
Schroder remains in Germany while working on a visa issue, but the Lakers hope to have him in the fold within the next week, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's availability for the preseason opener against the Kings next Monday could be questioned. However, the issue doesn't appear to be a factor in regards to his availability to begin the 2022-23 regular season, at this point, though Schroder is missing some valuable reps in training camp.
Sep 16, 2022
Returns to LA
Schroder is expected to sign a one-year, $2.64 million deal with the Lakers, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 29-year-old was last seen with the Rockets and Celtics in 2021-22, totaling 13.5 points, 4.6 assists and 3.3 rebounds in 64 games. Schroder had a stint with the Lakers in the 2020-21 season, starting 61 games and averaging 31.2 minutes per game. However, the backcourt has been vastly improved since his departure with the likes of Russell Westbrook and Patrick Beverley, making Schroder's path to significant minutes extremely murky.
Jul 20, 2022
Healthy for FIBA play
Schroder (shoulder) is included on Germany's 16-man preliminary roster for the FIBA EuroBasket 2022 tournament.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is back to full health after a sore shoulder kept him sidelined for the Rockets' final seven games of season. The veteran point guard has already been healthy for a while, as he notably poured in a national team-record 38 points for Germany in its win over Poland in qualifying play earlier this month. Currently a free agent, the 28-year-old Schroder may wait until after the FIBA tournament to work out a contract with an NBA team.
Mar 30, 2022
Done for season
Schroder (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was expected to miss his second straight game Wednesday due to a shoulder issue, but the Rockets have elected to shut him down for the rest of the season, along with fellow veterans Eric Gordon (groin/rest) and Christian Wood (hamstring). After being acquired by the Rockets ahead of the trade deadline, the point guard appeared in 15 games and averaged 10.9 points, 5.9 assists and 3.3 rebounds in 27.0 minutes per contest. In his absence, rookies Daishen Nix and Josh Christopher are both candidates for increased roles.
Mar 29, 2022
Remains out Wednesday
Schroder (shoulder) won't play Wednesday versus Sacramento, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
The guard also missed Monday's loss to the Spurs with the nagging left shoulder injury, so Wednesday's absence will mark the 15th missed game this season for Schroder. As a result, expect Jalen Green and Josh Christopher to see increased run versus the Kings on Wednesday.
Mar 28, 2022
Out Monday
Schroder (shoulder) will not play Monday against the Spurs, Jackson Gatlin of Locked On Rockets reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is apparently dealing with a sore shoulder, but it's more likely that Houston is simply trying to get a look at some younger options down the stretch. Consider Schroder day-to-day ahead of Wednesday's game against the Kings.
Mar 28, 2022
Dealing with shoulder soreness
Schroder is questionable for Monday's contest against the Spurs due to left shoulder soreness.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has scored in double figures in five of the last seven games -- including a 10-point, eight-assist outing Saturday. It's unclear when he picked up the injury, but if he's sidelined Monday, Daishen Nix and Josh Christopher are both candidates for increased roles.
Mar 26, 2022
Scores 14 off bench
Schroder racked up 14 points (4-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals across 23 minutes during Friday's 125-106 win over Portland.
ANALYSIS
When the veteran landed in Houston at the deadline, it was unclear what his role would be, but he's established himself as a regular presence off the bench of late. Schroder has scored in double figures in four of his last six games, averaging 12.2 points, 3.7 assists and 2.8 boards in that span.
Mar 15, 2022
Not listed on injury report
Schroder (illness) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Suns, Mark Berman of Fox 26 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was sidelined for Sunday's loss to the Pelicans due to a non-COVID illness, but he's expected to return to the mix Wednesday. Since joining Houston, the backup point guard has averaged 10.0 points, 7.3 assists and 3.9 rebounds across eight appearances.
Mar 13, 2022
Ruled out Sunday
Schroder (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Pelicans, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was a late addition to the injury report, so it's not surprising to see him ruled out. In his absence, Josh Christopher and Garrison Mathews are both candidates for increased roles.
Mar 13, 2022
Dealing with non-COVID illness
Schroder is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Pelicans due to a general illness.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has played in each of the last two contests following a four-game absence due to an ankle injury, but he's now dealing with an illness. If he's unable to suit up, Josh Christopher and Garrison Mathews would both be candidates for increased roles.
Mar 11, 2022
Will play Friday
Schroder (ankle) will play Friday against the Mavericks, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will again play through a sprained right ankle and presumably come off the bench. In his three appearances as a reserve for Houston, he's averaged 8.7 points, 5.7 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 23.0 minutes.
Mar 10, 2022
Questionable Friday
Schroder (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Mavericks, Mark Berman of Fox 26 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder recently missed four games due to a sprained ankle, but he returned to the court Wednesday against the Lakers and recorded 12 points, a rebound and six assists in 23 minutes. If he's unavailable Friday, Jalen Green and Daishen Nix should see additional run.
Mar 10, 2022
Returns with 12 points, six assists
Schroder contributed 12 points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound and six assists across 23 minutes during Wednesday's 139-130 overtime win over the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed four games with a sprained ankle but returned to the court Wednesday and was a strong contributor off the bench. The 28-year-old provides veteran backcourt depth for Houston and should continue to see plenty of run as a reserve down the stretch behind top guards Kevin Porter and Jalen Green.
Mar 9, 2022
Set to return Wednesday
Schroder (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Kelly Iko of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has missed the last four games due to a sprained left ankle, but he'll return to the court for Wednesday's tilt with the Lakers. Since joining the Rockets, the veteran has averaged 10.8 points, 7.5 assists and 4.5 rebounds over 30.7 minutes per game.
Mar 9, 2022
'Not sure' if he'll play Wednesday
Schroder (ankle) said he's "not sure" if he can play Wednesday against the Lakers, but he's going to "try to give it a shot in warmups," Mark Berman of Fox 26 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder, who is listed as questionable, doesn't sound optimistic about his chances of being available and appears headed for a fifth straight absence. If that's indeed the case, expect Eric Gordon, Josh Christopher and Garrison Mathews to absorb the majority of Schroder's minutes.
Mar 8, 2022
Questionable vs. Lakers
Schroder (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
A sprained left ankle has kept Schroder out for the past four games. Since joining Houston, he's averaged 10.8 points, 7.5 assists and 4.5 rebounds in 30.7 minutes. He likely won't reach that minutes mark on Wednesday if cleared to play, however, since both Kevin Porter and Jalen Green are available.
Mar 7, 2022
Out again Monday
Schroder (ankle) will remain out for Monday's game against Miami, Adam Wexler of Sports Talk 790 in Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
The guard was questionable coming in but will ultimately sit out for the fourth consecutive game. With Eric Gordon resting on the second night of a back-to-back, Garrison Mathews figures to pick up increased minutes alongside Jalen Green and Kevin Porter Jr.
Mar 7, 2022
Officially questionable again
Schroder (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Heat, Alykhan Bijani of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
For the fourth straight game, the Rockets are listing Schroder as questionable, though he's ultimately been ruled out of the previous three as he manages a sprained right ankle. Look for a more definitive update closer to game time.
Mar 6, 2022
Ruled out Sunday
Schroder (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Grizzlies, Mark Berman of Fox 26 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is slated to miss his third straight game due to a right ankle sprain. Josh Christopher and Garrison Mathews should continue to see additional playing time.
Mar 5, 2022
Questionable Sunday
Schroder (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies, Alykhan Bijani of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has missed the last two games due to a right ankle sprain, but he'll have a chance to return against Memphis. If he's held out, Josh Christopher and Garrison Mathews should continue to see additional playing time.
Mar 4, 2022
Ruled out Friday
Schroder (ankle) is out Friday against the Nuggets, Cayleigh Griffin of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was questionable ahead of Friday's matchup, but he wasn't expected to play. In his second straight absence, Josh Christopher and Garrison Mathews should see additional run.
Mar 4, 2022
Unlikely to play Friday
Schroder is expected to be sidelined for Friday's contest against the Nuggets, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed Wednesday's loss to the Jazz and is slated to miss a second consecutive contest due to a nagging ankle issue. In his expected absence, Josh Christopher and Garrison Mathews will likely see more playing time.
Mar 3, 2022
Questionable for Friday
Schroder (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's contest against the Nuggets, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was forced to miss Wednesday's contest with an ankle issue that's been nagging the guard. With Schroder downgraded to questionable for Friday, it's possible that Josh Christopher and Garrison Mathews (ankle) will see more playing time against Denver.
Mar 2, 2022
Out Wednesday
Schroder (ankle) is out Wednesday against the Jazz, Adam Wexler of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Though Schroder is out, the Rockets will at least be getting back Kevin Porter (ankle), so the backcourt isn't in awful shape. Schroder's absence could result in more usage for Josh Christopher and Garrison Mathews (ankle).
Mar 2, 2022
Questionable against Utah
Schroder is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Jazz due to a right ankle sprain, Alykhan Bijani of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has started three of the last four games, but he's dealing with an ankle issue ahead of the second half of a back-to-back set. Even if he's available Wednesday, he could take on a bench role since Kevin Porter (ankle) is probable.
Feb 28, 2022
Starts and logs double-double
Schroder accumulated 11 points (4-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds and 10 assists across 38 minutes during Sunday's 99-98 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
With Kevin Porter (ankle) out, Schroder drew the start and came two rebounds shy of a triple-double in the loss. The Rockets will likely run with their youth in the final weeks of the season, but the Schroder is a grizzled pro who can offer much-needed leadership to the youngsters in the backcourt. Schroder is an excellent fantasy pivot when he starts, but his position in the rotation doesn't provide much fantasy value moving forward.
Feb 27, 2022
Starting Sunday
Schroder will start Sunday's game against the Clippers, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder came off the bench Friday against Orlando but will make his third start in the past four games Sunday with Kevin Porter (ankle) ruled out. Schroder has averaged 11.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 7.3 assists and 1.0 steals in 28.5 minutes across four games since joining Houston.
Feb 22, 2022
Expected to remain in Houston
Schroder isn't expected to be bought out and is instead on course to stick with Houston for the remainder of the season, NBA writer Marc Stein reports.
ANALYSIS
While rumors swirled that Schroder would possibly be a buyout candidate after being traded to the Rockets in exchange for Daniel Thies, Stein relays that neither Houston nor the point guard favor the move. With starting point guard Kevin Porter (illness) sidelined for back-to-back games heading into the All-Star break, Schroder drew starts in each game and registered a team-high 23 points, nine assists and six rebounds in 39 minutes during the first half of the back-to-back set. However, he'll likely operate as a reserve when the Rockets are back to full strength, which they are expected to be when they return to action Friday against the Magic.
Feb 17, 2022
Drops 23 in Wednesday's loss
Schroder scored a team-high 23 points (7-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT) while adding nine assists, six rebounds, a steal and a block in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 124-121 loss to the Suns.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old wasn't even a sure thing to play Wednesday due to a minor Achilles issue, but Schroder not only suited up, he made a splash in his first start for the Rockets. With free agency looming in the offseason, Schroder has plenty of incentive to perform well down the stretch even on a Houston team that sits in the Western Conference basement.
Feb 16, 2022
Available, starting Wednesday
Schroder (Achilles) is starting Wednesday's game at Phoenix, Alykhan Bijani of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old was a game-time decision with right Achilles soreness Wednesday and will join the starting five with Kevin Porter (illness) sitting out. Schroder made his debut for the Rockets on Monday and had four points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and one steal over 18 minutes, though he should play a bigger role versus the Suns.
Feb 16, 2022
Questionable for Wednesday's game
Schroder is questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Suns due to soreness in his right Achilles.
ANALYSIS
Schroder made his Rockets debut Monday and totaled four points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five assists, three rebounds and one steal in 18 minutes. However, he appears to have picked up an injury as well. The Rockets have two remaining games -- including Wednesday -- before the All-Star break, but it's unclear if the backup point guard will be available for either contest.
Feb 15, 2022
Quiet in Rockets debut
Schroder amassed four points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and one steal across 18 minutes during Monday's 135-101 loss to the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
Schroder saw 18 minutes in his first game with the Rockets since being acquired in a trade last week. He didn't do much scoring during his time on the court, but the veteran did dish five dimes. Schroder could have a hard time racking up adequate stats to warrant a fantasy roster spot since he is likely to back up Kevin Porter at the point.
Feb 14, 2022
Not listed on injury report
Schroder (trade pending) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's matchup with Utah.
ANALYSIS
Schroder and Bruno Fernando, who were both acquired via trade in exchange for Daniel Theis, are absent from the injury report, suggesting they'll be available to make their Rockets debut Monday. Schroder is expected to operate as the primary backup point guard to Kevin Porter, but it remains to be seen if his role will be large enough to warrant fantasy consideration.
Feb 13, 2022
Status iffy for Monday
Schroder (not injury related) didn't practice with the Rockets on Sunday, but he's expected to join the Rockets in Utah ahead of Monday's game against the Jazz, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Along with Schroder, the Rockets acquired Bruno Fernando and Enes Freedom on Thursday from the Celtics in exchange for Daniel Theis. Freedom was subsequently released, but none of the three other players involved in the deal have been cleared to debut for their new teams, as at least one has yet to pass a physical. Theis will sit out the Celtics' game Sunday versus the Hawks, but Schroder and Fernando could have a chance to play Monday in Utah if the clerical work involved with the trade is completed.
Feb 10, 2022
Headed to Houston
Schroder was traded to the Rockets on Thursday, along with Bruno Fernando and Enes Freedom, in exchange for Daniel Theis, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Leading up to the deadline, the Celtics made it clear that Schroder was very much available, and they were ultimately able to settle on a deal that brings Theis back to Boston. On the surface, adding Schroder doesn't make a ton of sense for the rebuilding Rockets, so it remains to be seen just how much of a role he'll hold alongside Jalen Green and Kevin Porter Jr. Over his final nine games in a Celtics uniform, Schroder averaged just 18.3 minutes, which he translated to 7.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists. As an expiring contract, Schroder could be a buyout candidate.
Feb 5, 2022
Solid performance off bench
Schroder accumulated 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds and five assists in 23 minutes during Friday's 102-93 victory over the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
After seven straight single-digit performances, Schroder just barely finished in double figures for the first time since Jan. 19. With the Celtics back to full strength, the veteran point guard's role has diminished to verge of fantasy irrelevancy. However, Schroder's name continues to swirl in trade talks, so Boston may be inclined to give him more minutes to increase his value. Nonetheless, barring a change of scenery, he's a risky fantasy play moving forward.
Feb 3, 2022
Garners small role off bench
Schroder recorded six points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound, three assists and two steals over 17 minutes during Wednesday's 113-107 victory over the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was listed as probable for Wednesday's contest due to right Achilles tendinopathy, but he was able to suit up and play 17 minutes off the bench. The veteran point guard has played less than 20 minutes in five straight games and has averaged 3.6 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists during that stretch. He's trending towards being unplayable in standard leagues, despite averaging 14.4 points, 4.3 assists and 3.3 rebounds on the season.
Feb 2, 2022
Available Wednesday
Schroder (Achilles) is available for Wednesday's game against the Hornets, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will go through pregame warmups and is expected to play against Charlotte despite picking up some right Achilles tendinopathy in Monday's win over the Heat. The guard is averaging 14.6 points, 3.2 rebounds and 4.4 assists in 30.1 minutes per game this season.
Feb 2, 2022
Probable Wednesday
Schroder (Achilles) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Hornets, Chris Forsberg of NBC Sports Boston
ANALYSIS
Schroder is dealing with right Achilles tendinopathy following Monday's win over Miami, but it appears as though he'll be able to play through the issue against Charlotte. The 28-year-old has come off the bench in each of his last five appearances and has averaged 3.8 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 17.2 minutes per game during that time.
Feb 1, 2022
Unproductive again Monday
Schroder closed with four points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 17 minutes during Monday's 122-92 win over Miami.
ANALYSIS
Schroder failed to produce anything close to a fantasy-worth line in the victory, continuing his decline down the player ranks. Now that the Celtics are largely healthy, he has resorted to being merely a backup, a role that is not conducive to fantasy value. Of course, he is a player to keep an eye on given the injuries that have bothered the team this season. He could be elevated into a larger role should a key player go down, and that would catapult him back into 12-team consideration.
Jan 31, 2022
Good to go Monday
Schroder (Achilles) is available for Monday's game against the Heat, Chris Forsberg of NBC Sports Boston reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was considered probable with the Achilles issue, so it's not a surprise he'll attempt to play through the injury. He's averaged 3.8 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 17.3 minutes off the bench over the past four games.
Jan 31, 2022
Probable Monday
Schroder is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Heat due to tendinopathy in his right Achilles.
ANALYSIS
Schroder looks to be dealing with just a minor Achilles issue, but it's something to monitor as the Celtics head into a four-game Week 16. The veteran guard's minutes have been slashed of late, as he's played just 16, 15 and 16 minutes over the last three games, respectively. As a result, he's quickly fallen out of fantasy consideration in most leagues.
Jan 30, 2022
Minutes, production trending down
Schroder played 16 minutes in Saturday's 107-97 win over the Pelicans, tallying four points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and one rebound while committing four turnovers.
ANALYSIS
Though he's less than two weeks removed from back-to-back 20-plus-point performances, Schroder's fantasy value has cratered since Marcus Smart made his return to the lineup last weekend following a six-game absence while he was in the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols. Schroder has played off the bench in each of Boston's last four contests, averaging just 3.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 0.3 three-pointers in 17.3 minutes per game while shooting 26.3 percent from the field. The veteran guard's shooting should eventually improve, but with his outlook for playing time unlikely to take a major turn for the better while the Boston backcourt is at full strength, Schroder doesn't look like anything more than a deep-league fantasy option.
Jan 23, 2022
Shifts back to bench
Schroder will come off the bench Sunday against the Wizards, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old averaged 16.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.8 steals in 32.5 minutes as a starter over the past six games, but Marcus Smart (conditioning) will make his return from the COVID-19 protocols Sunday. Schroder has put up 11.3 points, 2.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists when coming off the bench this season.
Jan 20, 2022
Fills up stat sheet in defeat
Schroder racked up 24 points (9-16 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and three steals across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 111-102 loss to the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
The 6-foot-1 guard continues to fill in well for Boston during Marcus Smart's (COVID-19 protocols) absence. Schroder topped 20 points for the second straight contest and is averaging 17.4 points, 4.4 rebounds and 5.4 assists while starting the team's last five contests. If Smart is forced to miss more time, Schroder should continue to see additional usage in Boston's offense.
Jan 17, 2022
Another solid performance in start
Schroder closed with 23 points (9-16 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and two steals in 41 minutes during Monday's 104-92 win over the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
With Marcus Smart (COVID-19 protocols) still sidelined, Schroder drew his fourth straight start. During that stretch, the veteran point guard is averaging 15.8 points, 5.5 assists and 3.8 rebounds. He continues to be a valuable asset for Boston and has filled in admirably during extended absences to the likes of Smart and Jaylen Brown, but when the Celtics are back to full strength, his production will likely be diminished.
Jan 13, 2022
Big bounce-back
Schroder produced 23 points (7-11 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 119-100 win over the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder started in place of Marcus Smart (thigh) and racked up an efficient shooting night. Buoyed by one of Schroder's best nights from beyond the arc, he also knocked down five free throws for the second consecutive game. It's unclear is Schroder can sustainably supply performance like this off the bench. Smart is a candidate to miss Friday's game in Philadelphia, in which case shareholders would likely see another start from Schroder.
Jan 12, 2022
Rejoins starting five
Schroder will start Wednesday's game at Indiana.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old has come off the bench the past four games but will return to the lineup with Marcus Smart (thigh) sidelined Wednesday. Schroder has averaged 19.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 5.0 assists in 35.4 minutes across his 19 starts this season.
Jan 7, 2022
Scores 20 off bench
Schroder contributed 20 points (8-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 27 minutes during Thursday's 108-105 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was efficient from the field as he finished as the Celtics' second leading scorer behind Jayson Tatum (36 points). The 6-foot-1 point guard scored 20-plus points for the 12 time this season and for just the second time off the bench. Even with Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart all healthy, Schroder continues to garner fantasy consideration, especially in deeper leagues.
Jan 5, 2022
Scores 15 off bench
Schroder registered 15 points (7-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 99-97 loss to the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
With the Celtics almost entirely healthy, Schroder shifted back to his reserve role and notched his 17th game with at least 15 points this season. The 6-foot-1 guard's usage will likely be limited as long as Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart are healthy, but even in a reserve role, Schroder is still worthy of fantasy consideration in deeper leagues.
Jan 5, 2022
Coming off bench
Schroder will come off the bench Wednesday against the Spurs, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
With the Celtics almost entirely healthy, Schroder will resume the role that was intended for him this season. In his 11 games as a reserve, he's averaged 11.3 points, 4.3 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 27.5 minutes.
Jan 2, 2022
Paces backcourt with 21 points
Schroder finished Sunday's 116-111 overtime win over the Magic with 21 points (7-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-7 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 40 minutes.
ANALYSIS
With Jayson Tatum (COVID-19) still sidelined, several Celtics saw an increased run in the overtime win. Schroder exited the health and safety protocols and slid right into the starting lineup, logging a hefty 40 minutes on the floor. The Celtics ran with Romeo Langford (non-COVID illness) during Schroder's absence, but the 28-year-old should return to the starting lineup moving forward.
Jan 2, 2022
Will play Sunday
Schroder (not injury related) will be available for Sunday's game against the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder exited protocols Saturday and was expected to be a game-time call for Sunday's meeting against the Magic. The 28-year-old has proven to be an elite scorer at times and may see some additional scoring opportunities with Jayson Tatum (COVID-19 protocols) still sidelined.
Jan 2, 2022
Will be game-time call
Schroder (COVID-19) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed four games while in health and safety protocols and will go through a pregame workout Sunday to determine if he's conditioned enough to play. If active, Schroder will look to get off to another hot start in January after he averaged 19 points, five assists and 2.5 rebounds over the first six games of December.
Jan 2, 2022
Questionable Sunday
Schroder is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder exited protocols Saturday but may end up being held out for another game due to conditioning concerns. The 28-year-old guard is averaging 16.3 points, 4.7 assists and 3.4 rebounds in 32.2 minutes per game.
Jan 1, 2022
Exits protocols
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) is not on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Magic, Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder last played Dec. 22 and has been in protocols since. However, he should return Sunday barring any unforeseen conditioning issues. In December, he averaged 14.7 points, 4.1 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 30.2 minutes.
Dec 30, 2021
Still in protocols
Schroder (COIVID-19 protocols) remains out Friday against the Suns, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will be out for a fourth straight game Friday. The Celtics will at least be getting Marcus Smart (hand) back.
Dec 28, 2021
Will remain out Wednesday
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols), despite earlier reports that he had cleared protocols, remains sidelined and will not play Wednesday against the Clippers, John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will end up missing a third straight game due to protocols even though it appeared he had been cleared earlier. His next chance to play is Friday against the Suns.
Dec 28, 2021
No longer in protocols
Schroder cleared COVID-19 protocols Tuesday, Tim Bontemps of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Both Schroder and Josh Richardson have tested out of protocols and are not listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Clippers. Assuming he does take the floor Wednesday, Schroder will only end up missing two contests.
Dec 25, 2021
Entters COVID protocols
Schroder has entered the NBA's health and safety protocols, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
This news comes shortly before the Celtics were set to play the Bucks on Christmas day. In Schroder's absence, Marcus Smart (hip) and Jaylen Brown figure to see more usage in the backcourt than usual. It should be noted the former is a game-time decision. Payton Pritchard Also figurs to see extra run off the bench.
Dec 22, 2021
Shifts to bench
Schroder will come off the bench Wednesday against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder started Monday in his first game back from a non-COVID illness and had eight points (3-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds in one assist in 25 minutes. Romeo Langford will start in his place Wednesday.
Dec 20, 2021
Will be available Monday
Schroder (illness) will be available for Monday's game against the 76ers, Tim Bontemps of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was questionable coming into the day due to a non-COVID illness, but after being evaluated pregame, he's been given the green light to make his return after a two-game absence. The Celtics are dealing with several COVID-related absences, so it's unclear if Schroder will start or come off the bench.
Dec 19, 2021
Questionable for Monday
Schroder (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the 76ers, Tim Bontemps of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has missed the last two games due to a non-COVID illness, and the Celtics will wait to see how he feels Monday before updating his status. If he does play, he could be set for increased minutes with Josh Richardson re-entering the league's health and safety protocols Sunday night.
Dec 18, 2021
Out again
Schroder (illness) will remain sidelined for Saturday's matchup with the Knicks, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is dealing with a non-COVID illness and will miss his second straight game as a result. Thus, Marcus Smart and Jaylen Brown could see some more minutes than usual, while Payton Pritchard and Aaron Nesmith could also be in line for increased workloads. His next chance to suit up will come Monday versus the 76ers.
Dec 17, 2021
Ruled out Friday
Schroder has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Warriors due to a non-COVID illness.
ANALYSIS
The Celtics are shorthanded in the frontcourt Friday, and they'll have slightly less depth in the backcourt since Schroder is dealing with a non-COVID illness. It's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return for Saturday's game against the Knicks.
Dec 13, 2021
Moves to bench
Schroder will come off the bench Monday against the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder started the past five games but will shift to the bench with Jaylen Brown retaking the court Monday. Schroder has averaged 12.7 points, 4.6 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 28.9 minutes as a bench player this year.
Dec 10, 2021
Available Friday
Schroder (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Suns, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder logged 19 points, eight assists, four rebounds and a steal in 38 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Clippers but rolled his ankle during the contest. However, he'll be able to play through the issue Friday. He's started each of the last four games, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him maintain a starting role against Phoenix.
Dec 10, 2021
Questionable for Friday's contest
Schroder (ankle) is questionable for Friday's contest against the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Schroder rolled his ankle during Wednesday's loss to the Clippers, but he was still able to produce 19 points, eight assists and four rebounds across 38 minutes. If he is unable to suit up, then Payton Pritchard, Aaron Nesmith and Romeo Langford would all be candidates for increased roles against the Suns.
Dec 9, 2021
Solid as scorer, distributor
Schroder provided 19 points (8-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Wednesday's 114-111 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder put forth a controlled effort against the Clippers, making half of his 16 field-goal attempts and turning the ball over only once. He finished second on Boston in scoring and led the team in assists in the loss. The veteran point guard has been solid in his first season with the Celtics, posting per-game averages of 17.6 points, 5.0 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.6 three-pointers.
Dec 5, 2021
Erupts for 31 points
Schroder provided 31 points (10-16 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Saturday's 145-117 win over the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder tied Jayson Tatum for the team lead in scoring in the contest and finished with his second-highest total of the campaign. His five three-pointers were a season high, and he also had time to dish eight dimes. After a four-game shooting slump during which the veteran point guard shot just 30.8 percent from the field, Schroder has converted 20 of 37 attempts (54.1 percent) over his past two games.
Nov 30, 2021
Not on injury report
Schroder (ankle) is not on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's contest against the Sixers, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will return Wednesday from a one-game absence due to a sprained ankle. The veteran point guard may also be back in the starting lineup as Jaylen Brown (hamstring) is listed as questionable. During Brown's previous eight-game absence, Schroder averaged 23.1 points, 4.3 assists and 4.0 rebounds across 35.6 minutes per game. He could possibly see a similar workload Wednesday if Brown is unavailable once again.
Nov 30, 2021
Expected to play Wednesday
Schroder (ankle) is expected to play Wednesday against the Sixers, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had been dealing with a right ankle sprain that caused him to miss Sunday's 109-97 win over the Raptors -- his first absence of the season. However, Coach Ime Udoka said Tuesday that everyone on Boston's roster will be available against Philadelphia. When Jaylen Brown missed eight games due to a hamstring injury earlier in the season, Schroder stepped into the starting lineup and posted 23.1 points, 4.3 assists and 4.0 rebounds across 35.6 minutes per game. However, with everyone healthy, the veteran point guard will likely shift back into a reserve role.
Nov 27, 2021
Ruled out Sunday
Schroder will not play Sunday against the Raptors due to a sprained right ankle, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Celtics added Schroder to the injury report Saturday afternoon, so it looks like he picked up the injury at some point during Friday's loss to the Spurs. He finished that game with eight points, five boards and four assists in 38 minutes. The Celtics will get Josh Richardson back Sunday, so he'll help pick up the slack in the backcourt.
Nov 27, 2021
Disappointing effort Friday
Schroder produced eight points (3-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and four assists in 38 minutes during Friday's 96-88 loss to the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was unable to get anything going on either end of the floor in the loss. The Celtics were without both Josh Richardson and Robert Williams, both of whom are dealing with an illness. Any absence typically results in Schroder moving into the starting lineup, and to be honest, normally meets with better overall production. Despite this effort, he remains a must-roster player.
Nov 22, 2021
Good to go Monday
Schroder (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was considered probable with an ankle sprain, so it's hardly a surprise he's suiting up Monday. He's started the past eight games and has averaged 23.1 points, 4.3 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 35.6 minutes while shooting 52.8 percent from the field during that stretch.
Nov 22, 2021
Probable with ankle sprain
Schroder is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Rockets due to a sprained left ankle.
ANALYSIS
Schroder picked up the injury during Saturday's win over the Thunder, but it doesn't look to be anything that will cause him to miss time. The veteran guard is coming off of a strong weekend that featured two of his best performances of the season against a pair of his former teams. In Friday's win over the Lakers, Schroder went for 21 points, six assists and six rebounds, and he followed up with 29 points, four boards and six dimes Saturday.
Nov 21, 2021
Shines against OKC
Schroder registered 29 points (13-22 FG, 3-7 3Pt), four rebounds and six assists in 36 minutes during Saturday's 111-105 victory over the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has started in each of Boston's last eight games with Jaylen Brown (hamstring) sidelined and has looked impressive, putting up at least 20 points in six of those contests and operating as one of the team's main scoring threats. Schroder is averaging 23.1 points per game in that span.
Nov 20, 2021
Available vs. Thunder
Schroder (ankle) is available against the Thunder on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
A sprained ankle will not prevent Schroder benefiting from an unavailable Jaylen Brown (hamstring). The former averaged 22.3 points and 4.0 assists across seven games during Brown's absence.
Nov 20, 2021
Probable Saturday
Schroder (ankle) is considered probable for Saturday's tilt against the Thunder, John Karalis of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had a big night on the first of a back-to-back set in Friday's 130-108 victory over the Lakers. He recorded 21 points (8-14 FG, 1-4 3PT, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and six asssists across 34 minutes. He entered the game with an ankle issue, and while there was no word on a setback, he again draws a probable designation. Final confirmation on his status should come closer to tip-off.
Nov 19, 2021
Cleared to play
Schroder (ankle) has been cleared to play Friday against the Lakers, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will remain in the starting five Friday after being initially listed as questionable. He has averaged 22.5 points, 3.7 rebounds and 3.7 assists over the past six games.
Nov 19, 2021
Questionable with sprained ankle
Schroder is questionable for Friday's matchup against the Lakers due to a sprained left ankle, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been filling in for Jaylen Brown (hamstring) in the starting five and has averaged 22.5 points, 3.7 rebounds and 3.7 assists over the past six games. With Brown still out, if Schroder is also forced to sit, more minutes and usage would be available for Payton Pritchard, Josh Richardson and Romeo Langford.
Nov 17, 2021
Posts 15 points against former team
Schroder totaled 15 points (6-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, three steals and one rebound during Wednesday's loss to Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Facing his former team, Schroder posted at least 14 points for a seventh straight game, as the guard also tied a season best with three steals but didn't contribute much elsewhere. Across 15 outings this year, Schroder currently leads the team in assists and is third in scoring behind Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum.
Nov 15, 2021
Solid showing in win
Schroder had 14 points (5-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Monday's 98-92 victory over the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was one of four starters to finish in double figures, and he did so in an efficient shooting day. It wasn't as impressive a scoring night as he's had in the last week or so, however, as he was averaging 26.5 points over his last four contests heading into Monday's tilt.
Nov 14, 2021
Puts up 28 points Saturday
Schroder amassed 28 points (10-19 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds and three assists in 35 minutes during Saturday's loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
The point guard continued his recent hot stretch, leading Boston in scoring for the second straight game. Schroder has now scored 20-plus points in four consecutive contests while filling in as a starter for the injured Jaylen Brown (hamstring). Schroder has shot a scorching 26-for-46 (56.5 percent) from the field over his past two games.
Nov 13, 2021
Goes off for 38
Schroder recorded a season-high 38 points (16-27 FG, 3-9 3PT, 3-3 FG) to go along with eight rebounds, three assists and one steal across 41 minutes in Friday's 122-113 victory over the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder came out of the gates hot in this one and never looked back. He is averaging 26.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.3 assists across 38.0 minutes in his three previous games with Jaylen Brown (hamstring) sidelined. Until the latter returns, the combo-guard figures to continue taking advantage of the opportunity for more usage.
Nov 10, 2021
Tallies 20 points in start
Schroder tallied 20 points (8-15 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists and three rebounds in Wednesday's win over Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Schroder started for a second straight matchup and responded with another 20-point outing. It was his fourth one so far this season and second consecutive. However, Schroder uncharacteristically turned the ball over a season-high eight times across 34 minutes which broke his previous high of four turnovers set Oct. 22 also against the Raptors. Schroder finished with a plus-nine in point differential though, and aided the Celtics with his third straight outing with at least four assists.
Nov 9, 2021
Will continue to draw starts
Coach Ime Udoka said Tuesday that Schroder will continue to start while Jaylen Brown (hamstring) is out, Brian Robb of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown is expected to miss 1-to-2 weeks with a hamstring injury, so Schroder should see plenty of opportunities over the Celtics' four-game Week 5 slate. Schroder is averaging 14.0 points, 6.0 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 1.3 steals across 31.7 minutes per game this season, but two of his three 20-point performances have come when he was in the starting lineup.
Nov 7, 2021
Scores 20 points in starting role
Schroder tallied 20 points (9-22 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six assists and four rebounds in 39 minutes during Saturday's 107-104 loss to the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder moved into the starting lineup and could remain there for at least a week given the latest news we have surrounding Jaylen Brown (hamstring). This is not a situation that is unfamiliar to Schroder and so he should be able to make a good fist of things. It is unlikely he is available in any leagues at this point but if for some reason he is floating around on your waiver wire, that needs to be rectified.
Nov 6, 2021
Starting for injured Brown
Schroder will start for the injured Jaylen Brown (hamstring) in Saturday's game against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
It's possible Brown is out a couple of weeks, so Schroder could be locked into a starting job for multiple games. In his three other starts this season, Schroder has averaged 15.7 points, 7.3 assists, 5.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals.
Nov 5, 2021
Plays an electric 30 minutes in win
Schroder energized Boston with 14 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six assists, five rebounds and two steals across 30 minutes in Thursday's 95-78 win in Miami.
ANALYSIS
Schroder, Romeo Langford and Aaron Nesmith were part of a bench squad that carried the Celtics to victory. Jaylen Brown scored a team high 17, but left in the second half with a hamstring issue. Jayson Tatum scored only 10 points. But Schroder provided a critical boost on both sides of the floor. In particular, he was a key part of a defensive effort that held Boston's opponent under 80 points for the second night in a row. The speedy point guard ended the night with a +26 plus-minus ratio. His six dimes led the team.
Oct 28, 2021
Scores 22 in loss
Schroder scored 22 points (6-15 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT) and added six assists, two steals and one rebounds across 34 minutes of Wednesday's loss to the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
After starting the previous two games, Schroder came off the bench in this matchup and turned in a solid performance. This was his second 20-point game of the season, and he is now averaging 15.8 points, 6.2 assists and 3.8 rebounds. These numbers are on par with the veteran's output from last season with the Lakers and he figures to continue producing in this range.
Oct 25, 2021
Turns in strong performance
Schroder collected 23 points (6-14 FG, 4-9 3PT, 7-8 FT), eight assists, six rebounds and one block in 36 minutes Monday against the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder knocked down four shots from beyond the arc and dished out eight assists in the 140-129 overtime victory in Charlotte. After coming off the bench in each of his team's first two contests, he's now started two straight and has produced at a high level. He figures to continue to battle with Marcus Smart for the starting gig moving forward.
Oct 25, 2021
Starting again Monday
Schroder will remain in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Hornets, John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
With Al Horford (hip) sidelined, the Celtics will go small and start Schroder, Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum and Robert Williams. Schroder moved into the starting lineup Sunday against Houston -- Brown was out due to a knee issue -- and finished with 18 points, five assists, five boards and a steal.
Oct 24, 2021
Puts up 18 points, five assists
Schroder finished Sunday's win over the Rockets with 18 points (7-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five assists, five rebounds and one steal.
ANALYSIS
Making his first start in a Celtics uniform with Jaylen Brown (knee) sidelined, Schroder made the most of the opportunity, finishing as a plus-15 in the 107-97 victory. When Boston is at full strength, Schroder will function as the sixth man behind Brown and Marcus Smart, but he's already topped 30 minutes twice in three games, so his workload shouldn't dip too much relative to last season with the Lakers (32.1 MPG).
Oct 24, 2021
Starting Sunday
Schroder is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockets, Brian Robb of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will enter the starting lineup for Jaylen Brown, who is out due to knee soreness. The 28-year-old guard has averaged eight points, six assists and 1.5 steals in 27.5 minutes per game off the bench so far this year. His role figures to expand even more as he moves into the starting five.
Oct 20, 2021
Struggles in loss
Schroder added 12 points (5-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight assists, three rebounds and two steals during the Celtics' 138-134 double overtime loss to the Knicks on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
A team-high eight assists salvaged a fantasy performance, but Schroder was inefficient as well as a defensive liability in crunch time. He remains a fine fantasy asset and will look to keep building repertoire with his new team in advance of Friday's contest versus Toronto.
Oct 20, 2021
Will begin season in bench role
Schroder will come off the bench in Wednesday's season opener against the Knicks, Tim Bontemps of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The writing was on the wall during the preseason, but it's now clear that Boston will roll with Marcus Smart as the No. 1 point guard, while Schroder figures to function as the sixth man. It wouldn't be a surprise if Schroder finds himself in the starting five at some point, but to begin the year Boston will go with Smart, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Grant Williams and Robert Williams. The Celtics are without Al Horford (COVID-19 protocols) on Wednesday.
Oct 15, 2021
Draws start in first game back
Coach Ime Udoka said Schroder (knee) will start Friday's exhibition contest against the Heat, Mark Murphy of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been dealing with knee pain throughout the preseason, but Udoka said the point guard will be good to go Friday and will likely see extended minutes to prepare for the regular season. He will be joined by Romeo Langford in the starting lineup, as Jaylen Brown (COVID-10 protocols) remains sidelined.
Oct 14, 2021
Available Friday
Schroder (knee) will be available for Friday's preseason finale against the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been dealing with knee pain lately, but he'll get one more warm-up game in before Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Knicks.
Oct 12, 2021
Out Wednesday
Schroder (knee, rest) is out Wednesday against the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been dealing with a knee injury, but he's formally listed out for rest ahead of Wednesday's game. It seems possible, if not likely, that he'll be available for Friday's preseason finale against the Heat.
Oct 10, 2021
Could be back Wednesday
Celtics head coach Ime Udoka said he's hopeful Schroder (knee) will be available for Wednesday's preseason game against the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Udoka suggested that the left knee contusion that prevented Schroder from playing Saturday against the Raptors isn't a serious concern. Assuming Schroder is able to quickly move past the injury, he could open the campaign in a starting role in the backcourt alongside Marcus Smart.
Oct 9, 2021
Out Saturday
Schroder (knee) is out Saturday against the Raptors, John Karalis of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Due to a left knee bruise, Schroder will sit out Saturday's preseason game, which should allow Payton Pritchard and Ryan Arcidiacono to see more minutes.
Oct 9, 2021
Questionable Saturday
Schroder is questionable for Saturday's preseason game against the Raptors due to a left knee contusion.
ANALYSIS
The injury isn't serious, but don't be surprised if Schroder is held out for precautionary reasons. If that's the case, more minutes would be available for Payton Pritchard and Ryan Arcidiacono.
Oct 4, 2021
Coming off bench Monday
Schroder isn't starting Monday's preseason opener against Orlando, Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder appears likely to serve as the starting point guard to begin the regular season, but he'll take on a bench role for Monday's contest. The 28-year-old signed a one-year deal with the Celtics in August after he averaged 15.4 points, 5.8 assists and 3.5 rebounds in 32.1 minutes per game with the Lakers during the 2020-21 campaign.
Aug 10, 2021
Agrees to one-year deal with Boston
Shroder agreed to a one-year contract with the Celtics on Tuesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder turned down a big-money offer from the Lakers during the 2020-21 season, and his decision to instead test free agency proved to be a costly one. The veteran guard will make just the $5.9 million taxpayer exception next season, though the hope is that he can rehabilitate his value and score a more-lucrative deal next offseason. Schroder is coming off of an up-and-down season in Los Angeles, where he averaged 15.4 points, 5.8 assists and 3.5 rebounds across 61 appearances. In Boston, Schroder will likely slot in as the starting point guard in a starting five that could also feature Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum and Robert Williams.
Jun 4, 2021
Totals 20 points in loss
Schroder tallied 20 points (6-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal over 38 minutes in a 113-110 Game 6 loss to Phoenix on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
With the Lakers falling far behind early in the contest and superstar Anthony Davis (groin) exiting the contest after only five minutes due to injury, Schroder was called upon to assume a larger offensive role. He finished second on the team with 20 points, but the Lakers never really challenged in the disappointing season-ending loss. Schroder finished the series with per-game averages of 14.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.8 assists but shot only 40 percent from the field. He'll be a free agent this offseason.
May 28, 2021
Scores 20 points in win
Schroder had 20 points (6-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four assists, three rebounds and two steals in Thursday's Game 3 win over Phoenix.
ANALYSIS
Coming off of a 24-point effort in Game 2, Schroder once again provided a nice spark for the Lakers, combining with LeBron James (21 points) and Anthony Davis (34) to account for 75 of Los Angeles' 109 points. Like most of the Lakers, Schroder is struggling from three-point range, but he's clearly re-asserted himself as the team's clear No. 3 scoring option behind the two superstars.
May 26, 2021
Shoots efficiently in win
Schroder notched 24 points (8-16 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, three assists and a steal in Tuesday's 109-102 victory over the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Schroder shot 50 percent from the field and from behind the three-point arc, which was a main reason why the Lakers were able to pull ahead late in the matchup for a game two win. Although the 27-year-old has played well against the Suns so far, he's struggled dishing out assists, as he has six total assists to go along with five turnovers this series.
May 18, 2021
Conditioning not 100 percent
Shroder admitted Tuesday that his conditioning has not returned fully after being out due to the league's health and safety protocols, Bill Oram of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Shroder averaged north of 32 minutes per game over the course of the regular season but only made it back to 29 in his second game back from his absence. It sounds like he's still not quite ready for his full workload, so it's possible his minutes will be slightly limited again during Wednesday's play-in game.
May 17, 2021
Contributes 12 points Sunday
Schroder finished Sunday's 110-98 win over the Pelicans with 12 points (5-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four assists, three rebounds and two steals across 29 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is still shaking off the rust after missing seven straight contests while in the NBA's health and safety protocols from May 2 to May 12. He managed to play in both games of the Lakers' back-to-back set this weekend, which should help him gear up for Wednesday's postseason play-in game versus Golden State. Schroder finished his first season in Los Angeles with per-game averages of 15.4 points, 5.8 assists and 3.5 rebounds.
May 15, 2021
Cleared to play
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) will play Saturday against the Pacers, Mark Stein of The New York Times reports.
ANALYSIS
After seven missed games, Schroder will return to the lineup. He's not expected to be on a formal minutes limit, but we also shouldn't be surprised if he plays fewer minutes than usual.
May 14, 2021
Technically available, may not play
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) is technically available for Saturday's game against the Pacers but coach Frank Vogel is not sure if the point guard will play, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder last played April 30 and has been in health and safety protocols since. He's cleared to return to game action, but the Lakers could end up holding him out for conditioning reasons. If he does end up playing, the point guard would presumably be on a minutes limit.
May 3, 2021
Expected to miss 10-to-14 days
Schroder is expected to remain out for 10-to-14 days due to the league's health and safety protocols, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Things continue to go from bad to worse for the Lakers, who dropped embarrassing games to Sacramento and Toronto over the weekend, despite LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis playing in both contests. Los Angeles will now be without its third-best player for at least the next week-and-a-half, meaning Schroder will likely only be able to play in one or two regular season games before the start of the postseason -- or, at the rate the Lakers are losing games, perhaps the Western Conference play-in tournament.
May 2, 2021
Out for COVID protocols
Schroder (calf) won't play Sunday against the Raptors due the league's health and safety protocols, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old was considered probable with the calf issue, but he's now unavailable due to the COVID-19 protocols. It's unclear how long Schroder will be sidelined, but he also figures to be unavailable for the second half of the back-to-back set Monday against Denver.
May 1, 2021
Probable yet again
Schroder (calf) is probable for Sunday's contest against the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Schroder continues to be listed as probable and hasn't missed any time since late February. In April, he averaged 15.8 points, 8.3 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals.
Apr 30, 2021
Officially available
Schroder (calf) is available for Friday's game against the Kings, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was probable for Friday's contest, so it isn't very surprising to see him available against Sacramento. He's averaged 18.0 points, 9.4 assists and 3.2 rebounds in 35.2 minutes per game across the last five contests.
Apr 29, 2021
Likely available vs. Kings
Schroder (calf) is probable for Friday's game against the Kings, Harrison Faigen of Silver Screen and Roll reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been battling various injuries of late but he isn't expected to miss time. The 27-year-old hasn't missed a game since late February.
Apr 29, 2021
Sniffs double-double in loss
Schroder accumulated 13 points (5-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight assists and four rebounds in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 116-107 loss to the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old snapped his three game double-double streak but still provided a decent line for his fantasy managers. Schroder now has at least eight assists in six out of his last seven games, a span in which he's averaging 17.5 points, 9.0 assists, 1.4 three-pointers and 0.9 steals. The eighth-year guard will look to steer the fifth-seeded Lakers back in the win column Friday at home against the Kings.
Apr 28, 2021
Starting as expected
Schroder (calf) is starting Wednesday at Washington, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old was considered probable with soreness in his left calf, so it's no surprise to see him in Wednesday's starting five. Schroder has averaged 20.4 points, 9.4 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 36.0 minutes over the past five games.
Apr 27, 2021
Expects to play Wednesday
Schroder (calf) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game at Washington.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been playing through a sore left calf of late, but he didn't appear affected Monday against Orlando, as he notched his third straight double-double by way of 21 points and 10 assists. Schroder has played 38, 37 and 38 minutes over the last three games.
Apr 26, 2021
Third straight double-double
Schroder (calf) registered 21 points (10-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 10 assists and two rebounds across 38 minutes during Monday's 114-103 win over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has recorded double-doubles in three straight games, the longest such streak of his career and first time he's managed consecutive double-doubles since Dec. 14 and 15 of 2017. During this span, Schroder is averaging 20.7 points, 11.0 assists and 2.7 rebounds per contest. His production has actually increased since Anthony Davis returned from a calf injury and should remain steady as LeBron James (ankle) continues to miss time.
Apr 25, 2021
Questionable with sore calf
Schroder is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Magic due to a sore left calf.
ANALYSIS
Schroder apparently picked up the injury during Sunday's loss to the Mavs, which he finished with 16 points, 10 assists, four rebounds and a steal in 37 minutes. The point guard has scored in double figures in four straight games while racking up 23 assists over his last two contests alone.
Apr 25, 2021
Produces double-double in loss
Schroder scored 16 points (7-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt) and dropped 10 assists Saturday in a loss to the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder finished with his second straight double-double and fifth overall of the campaign, but it wasn't enough to help the Lakers fend off a determined Dallas team. The veteran point guard is averaging 20.3 points, 9.3 assists and 4.0 rebounds over his past four games, though Los Angeles has won only once in that span.
Apr 24, 2021
Playing Saturday
Schroder (foot) will play Saturday against the Mavericks, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Schroder will start despite a foot infection. This month, he's averaged 16.3 points, 8.1 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 32.5 minutes.
Apr 23, 2021
Probable vs. Mavs
Schroder (foot) is probable for Saturday's contest against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been dealing with a foot infection lately, but it hasn't stopped him from playing. This month, he's averaged 16.3 points, 8.1 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 32.5 minutes.
Apr 23, 2021
Puts up double-double in loss
Schroder recorded 25 points (9-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 13 assists and two rebounds across 38 minutes in Thursday's 115-110 loss to the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Although he fouled out with 18 seconds remaining in the game, it was a heroic performance from Schroder, who helped bring his team back from the brink with the help of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope in the third quarter, only to see their lead evaporate when Schroder took a seat at the end of the stanza. It's just another example of Schroder's impact on the squad, especially with LeBron James (ankle) out of action.
Apr 22, 2021
Available Thursday
Schroder (foot) will play Thursday against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will continue to play through a foot infection as expected. The starting point guard should see his usual workload in Thursday's game.
Apr 21, 2021
Probable Thursday
Schroder (foot) is probable for Thursday's contest against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is still dealing with a foot infection, but he hasn't missed any time due to the issue. This month, the point guard has averaged 15.4 points, 7.6 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 31.9 minutes.
Apr 20, 2021
Efficient night in loss
Schroder recorded 15 points (6-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six assists, four rebounds and four steals across 28 minutes in Monday's 111-97 loss to the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
Schroder continues to excel despite dealing with a lingering foot infection. The guard matched a season-high four steals in the loss and remained efficient as a shooter despite a regression in scoring from his last contest.
Apr 19, 2021
Will play Monday
Schroder (foot) will play Monday against Utah, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will play as expected Monday after he had been listed as probable with a right foot infection. He went for 25 points and eight assists in his last outing Saturday.
Apr 18, 2021
Likely to play Monday
Schroder (foot) is probable for Monday's game against the Jazz, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been dealing with a right foot infection but appears likely to play through the injury once again Monday. He totaled 25 points, eight assists, six rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 39 minutes in Saturday's win over Utah.
Apr 17, 2021
Bounces back with 25 points
Schroder posted 25 points (11-24 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight assists, six rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 39 minutes during Saturday's overtime win over the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old bounced back from Thursday's eight-point effort to post his 14th game with 20-plus points this season. Schroder was averaging 19.7 points, 5.3 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 2.3 three-pointers in his previous three games before Thursday's performance, so Saturday's bounce-back game was an encouraging sight for his fantasy managers. The eighth-year guard is looking at heavy minutes the rest of the way as the only true point guard on the Lakers.
Apr 17, 2021
Available vs. Jazz
Schroder (foot) is available for Saturday's contest against the Jazz, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Schroder will be available despite a right foot infection. This month, he's averaged 14.3 points, 7.8 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 31.5 minutes.
Apr 16, 2021
Listed as probable
Schroder (foot) is probable for Saturday's game against the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
Schroder continues to deal with a right foot infection but will likely be able to play through the injury once again Friday. He totaled eight points, eight assists and one rebound in 28 minutes during Thursday's loss to Boston.
Apr 16, 2021
Underwhelms in loss to Boston
Schroder (foot) tallied eight points (3-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight assists and one rebound in 28 minutes Thursday in the Lakers' 121-113 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was iffy coming into the contest while dealing with a right foot infection, but he ultimately got the green light from the Lakers' medical staff to suit up. The 27-year-old didn't have any obvious limitations during his time on the court, but he was more deferential than usual, as he finished with single-digit shot attempts for the first time in five games. Schroder has a pair of tough matchups coming up Saturday and Monday against the Jazz, and he could settle into a smaller role offensively thereafter with Anthony Davis (calf) seemingly tracking toward a return to the lineup late next week.
Apr 15, 2021
Will play Thursday
Schroder (foot) will play Thursday against the Celtics, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Frank Vogel had considered Schroder as unlikely to play due to an infection in his right foot, but the starting guard is going to play through the issue. Schroder will be figure to be heavily involved with most of the Lakers' usual starters sidelined by injury.
Apr 15, 2021
Unlikely to play Thursday
Schroder (foot) is unlikely to play Thursday against Boston, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had been listed as probable with a pelvis injury, but now it seems that an injury to his foot will likely keep him sidelined. With Schroder likely sidelined, Alex Caruso could potentially be in line for a start at point guard.
Apr 14, 2021
Likely to play Wednesday
Schroder is listed as probable for Thursday's game against Boston due to a pelvis contusion, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been dealing with a pelvis injury over the past two games. The guard seems unaffected by the injury however, as Schroder has logged 36 and 37 minutes of action in each of the last two Lakers' matchups. Schroder has also posted at least 19 points in three straight games.
Apr 14, 2021
Solid two-way performance
Schroder scored 19 points (8-19 FG, 3-7 3Pt) with six assists, four rebounds and two steals in a 101-93 victory over the Hornets on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had a solid all-around game and scored 19-plus points for the third consecutive contest. The Lakers have been without their two leading scorers, Lebron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (calf), so the guard has been forced to take on more responsibility on offense. Schroder has taken advantage, averaging 16.6 points, 7.8 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.8 steals across his last 12 games.
Apr 13, 2021
Starting Tuesday
Schroder (pelvis) is starting Tuesday's game against the Hornets, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Schroder will play despite a bruised pelvis. Over the past 10 games, he's averaging 16.5 points, 8.0 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.8 steals in 32.7 minutes.
Apr 13, 2021
Likely to play Tuesday
Schorder (pelvis) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against Charlotte.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is dealing with a bruised pelvis, which he was able to play through in Monday's loss to the Knicks. Schroder was one of the few bright spots for the Lakers in Monday's game, going for 21 points and six assists in 37 minutes.
Apr 12, 2021
Scores team-high 21 points
Schroder recorded 21 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six assists and three rebounds in 36 minutes during Monday's loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old played through a bruised pelvis to post his first 20-point game since March 28. Schroder has now scored double-digit points in 19 out of his last 21 games, a span in which he's averaged 16.8 points, 6.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.3 three-pointers. The eighth-year guard will look to steer the fifth-seeded Lakers back in the win column Tuesday on the road against the Hornets.
Apr 12, 2021
Good to go Monday
Schroder (pelvis) will play and start in Monday's game against the Knicks, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had been listed as probable due to a bruised pelvis, and he will be available as expected. Schroder was ejected in his last outing during Saturday's victory over Brooklyn.
Apr 12, 2021
Dealing with bruised pelvis
Schroder is considered probable for Monday's game against the Knicks due to a bruised pelvis, Brad Turner of the LA Times reports.
ANALYSIS
The issue doesn't look to be anything overly concerning, but it was enough to land Schroder on the injury report as the Lakers enter a Monday/Tuesday back-to-back set. Schroder was ejected from Saturday's game against the Nets after putting up 19 points and four assists in 20 minutes.
Apr 10, 2021
Ejected at Brooklyn
Schroder was assessed two technical fouls and ejected from Saturday's game against the Nets, Malika Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old and Kyrie Irving were both ejected early in the third quarter Saturday, marking the first career ejection for each player. Schroder put up 19 points 7-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FG), four assists and one rebound in 20 minutes before being sent off the court.
Apr 9, 2021
Dishes out 14 dimes
Schroder recorded 10 points (2-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 14 assists, six rebounds and a steal across 40 minutes in Thursday's loss against the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Schroder didn't have his best offensive showing Thursday, but he compensated for his struggles from the floor with another stellar passing performance. The veteran point guard has now dished out six or more assists in nine contests in a row and is averaging 8.6 dimes per contest in that nine-game span.
Apr 6, 2021
Finds way back to double-digits
Schroder posted 12 points (3-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine assists, two rebounds and two steals in 27 minutes in Tuesday's 110-101 victory over the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Schroder went an awful 3-for-12 for eight points during Sunday's 104-86 loss to the Clippers, which was his first game in single-digits since March 15. He got back on track Tuesday, reaching double-digit scoring while posting at least seven assists for the fourth straight game. With Anthony Davis (calf, Achilles) and LeBron James (ankle) out, Schroder becomes the driving force of the Lakers' offense.
Apr 5, 2021
Seven assists in bad shooting night
Schroder supplied eight points (3-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven assists, three rebounds and one steal Sunday in a 104-86 loss against the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
It was Schroder's second-lowest points output since he missed four games in February. On the plus side, Schroder served as an active playmaker to compensate for a lack of scoring sufficiency. He is currently averaging 7.7 assists and 2.4 steals across his past seven games.
Apr 1, 2021
Posts 17 points
Schroder tallied 17 points (6-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight assists and three rebounds across 32 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder hoisted more shots than any other Laker on Wednesday, but he was able to convert only six of his 18 field-goal tries. Still, it was the point guard's ninth straight game with double-figure scoring, including six straight since LeBron James went down with an ankle injury March 20. Overall this season, Schroder is averaging 15.4 points, 4.9 assists and 3.5 rebounds per game.
Mar 29, 2021
Scores team-high 24 points
Schroder delivered 24 points (7-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 9-10 FT), six assists, five rebounds and two steals across 36 minutes in Sunday's win over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was one of two Lakers that scored more than 20 points, and as it has been the case when handed a bigger role, he thrived offensively. Schroder has scored at least 15 points in eight games in a row and has reached the 20-point mark four times in that stretch as well. He's certainly benefiting from the fact that both LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (calf) remain sidelined due to injuries.
Mar 27, 2021
Contributes across board in win
Schroder tallied 17 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven assists, five rebounds, four steals and a blocked shot across 32 minutes Friday in a 100-86 victory over the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder trailed only Montrezl Harrell for the team lead in scoring in the contest with 17 points while tying for top honors in assists (seven) and steals (four). His all-around effort was crucial in helping Los Angeles snap a three-game losing streak that has coincided with the absence of both Anthony Davis (calf) and LeBron James (ankle). In his first season with the Lakers, Schroder is posting per-game averages of 15.1 points, 4.8 assists and 3.5 rebounds.
Mar 26, 2021
Records second double-double
Schroder tallied 20 points (6-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 8-9 FT), 11 assists, three rebounds and three steals across 39 minutes in Thursday's 109-101 loss to the Sixers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder played with a bit more pep in the loss, and he was likely heartened by the Lakers' decision to pass on making a deal for Kyle Lowry. Their initial interest was motivated partly by LeBron James' injury, but Schroder's inconsistent play was also a major factor. He's enjoying a nice five-game run despite the team's recent streak of losses, averaging 19 points, 6.4 assists, and 3.8 rebounds over that span.
Mar 23, 2021
Drops 15 in loss Tuesday
Schroder managed 15 points (2-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 10-12 FT), seven assists, four rebounds and two steals during Tuesday's loss to the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Schroder struggled offensively overall from the field in this one but picked up the slack by getting to the charity stripe and knocking down a season high. The guard has now reached the 15-point mark in five straight outings and is averaging 18.2 points along with 5.6 assists during that span.
Mar 22, 2021
Supplies 22 points at Phoenix
Schroder supplied 22 points (8-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three assists and one rebound Sunday in a 111-94 loss at Phoenix.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has now scored 22 points thrice in the Lakers' past 10 games. He was not their primary shooting option though, as backups Kyle Kuzma and Talen Horton-Tucker both attempted two more field goals than him. Schroder is likely to provide better value Tuesday when the Lakers play a more favorable matchup at New Orleans.
Mar 20, 2021
Scores 16 in loss
Schroder finished with 16 points (4-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-9 FT), seven boards, four assists and two steals in 35 minutes of a 99-95 loss to the Hawks on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was key to the Lakers' hopes after LeBron James (ankle) left the game. The seventh year vet finished second on the team in scoring and lead all starters in the loss, as he continued to provide a scoring option for the team that has been missing Anthony Davis (calf). Now with both superstars out, Schroder could be called on to take over the mantle as the Lakers scorer. He'll face the Suns on Sunday.
Mar 19, 2021
Puts up 22 points
Schroder recorded 22 points (9-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 ft), seven assists, four rebounds and one steal Thursday in a 116-105 win versus Charlotte.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was one of two Lakers players (along with LeBron James) who logged 15 points and five assists. He particularly excelled scoring-wise, making at least nine field goals for only the fourth time this season. Schroder was expected to receive an uptick in value with Anthony Davis (calf) out. However, he is averaging 15.0 points and 5.1 assists during games without the big man - not far off his season averages of 14.8 PPG and 4.7 APG.
Mar 17, 2021
Bounces back with solid effort
Schroder posted 16 points (5-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven assists and a steal across 32 minutes in Tuesday's 137-121 victory versus Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Schroder entered the contest in a post-All-Star-break funk, averaging only 8.5 points on 31.3 percent shooting over two games. He was much better Tuesday, making five of his 11 shot attempts en route to 16 points. He did turn the ball over five times, but as long as the veteran point guard can score at a decent pace and create shots for his teammates, he'll continue to play a key role in the Lakers' quest for a second straight NBA championship.
Mar 4, 2021
One assist shy of double-double
Schroder delivered 28 points (11-20 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine assists, a rebound, a steal and a block across 34 minutes in Wednesday's loss against the Kings.
ANALYSIS
The Lakers didn't have LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (calf), and this result in Schroder posting a season-high 20 shots from the field while also scoring a season-best 28 points. Expect Schroder to see a slight uptick in his numbers across the board if both Davis and James are forced to miss more games.

Chips in 17 points in loss
Schroder totaled 17 points (6-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six assists and three rebounds over 38 minutes Tuesday in a loss to the Suns.
ANALYSIS
The point guard struggled to get his shot to fall against Phoenix, but he finished second on the team in scoring and tied for the team lead with six dimes. He took on a larger-than-usual role on offense with the team hit hard by injuries, and he may see even more shots in the second game of a back-to-back Wednesday with LeBron James (ankle) slated to sit out. Schroder has averaged 17.0 points and 4.7 dimes since returning from a four-game absence Feb. 26.
Feb 28, 2021
12 points, six assists in win
Schroder had 12 points (3-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six assists, three rebounds and one steal in Sunday's win over the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
The Lakers essentially had the game wrapped up by halftime, but Schroder still played a team-high 25 minutes in his second game back following a four-game absence. He wasn't able to convert from beyond the arc, but Schroder worked his way to the line seven times and has now attempted 24 free throws over his last three appearances.
Feb 27, 2021
Posts 22 points in return
Schroder recorded 22 points (6-14 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 9-9 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal Friday in a 102-93 home win against the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
After missing four games due to health and safety protocols, Schroder supplied one of his better performances in a return matchup against Portland. He is likely to see his scoring go up with Anthony Davis (calf/Achilles) out for at least four weeks. Schroder has averaged 17.4 points across seven Laker games without the star big man this season.
Feb 26, 2021
Available and starting
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) is available and starting Friday against the Trail Blazers, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed the last four games due to the league's health and safety protocols, but he was probable to return Friday and will officially return to the starting five. He should see a fairly significant role with Anthony Davis (calf) sidelined through the All-Star break.
Feb 25, 2021
Probable to return Friday
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) is probable for Friday's game against Portland, Jamie Hudson of NBC Sports Northwest reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is expected to return to the lineup after missing the last four games while in the league's health and safety protocols. The team has sorely missed the starting point guard, so he should be in line for a somewhat heavy workload given that the team's secondary source of offense in Anthony Davis (calf) is sidelined through the All-Star break.
Feb 22, 2021
Expected back Friday
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) is expected to return for Friday's game against Portland, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
As anticipated, Schroder will miss two more contests, Monday and Wednesday, before making a return to the court. He'll miss four total contests due to COVID-19 protocols, assuming he is cleared for a Friday return.
Feb 20, 2021
Out Saturday, Monday, Wednesday
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) will miss the Lakers' next three games, Saturday against the Heat, Monday against the Wizards and Wednesday against the Jazz, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
It's not clear if Schroder will return after the next three games or if he could miss more time. While he's sidelined, Wesley Matthews is a strong candidate to remain in the starting five, while Alex Caruso and Talen Horton-Tucker could see more minutes as well.
Feb 19, 2021
Ruled out Saturday
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) will not play in Saturday's game against the Heat, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's absence will mark his second straight and his status figures to continue being cloudy going forward. Look for Alex Caruso and possibly Talen Horton-Tucker to be the prime beneficiaries of his absence. His next chance to suit up will come Monday versus the Wizards.
Feb 19, 2021
Status for Saturday unclear
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) did not practice Friday, and coach Frank Vogel is "uncertain" if the guard will be available for Saturday's game against the Heat, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder missed Thursday's loss to the Nets due to health and safety protocols, and there's still some cloudiness around the situation. As a result, he should be considered questionable for Saturday's game. If Schroder sits again, Alex Caruso and Talen Horton-Tucker would likely have the ball in their hands more often.
Feb 18, 2021
Out due to protocols
Schroder (COVID-19 protocols) is out for Thursday's game against the Nets, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is set to miss his first game of the season after he was placed in the league's health and safety protocols. It comes as especially unfortunate timing for Schroder as he was coming off a strong outing in the team's first game without Anthony Davis (calf) when he went for 24 points and four steals against Minnesota. Alex Caruso could be in line for an increased workload with Schroder sidelined.
Feb 16, 2021
Puts up 24 points against Wolves
Schroder notched 24 points (9-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 6-8 FT), four steals, three assists, a rebound and a block across 32 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had a strong performance across the board and finished as the Lakers' second-best scorer behind LeBron James, as he emerged as a reliable scoring threat in absence of Anthony Davis (calf). Schroder might have committed five turnovers, but he scored enough to offset how sloppy he was with the ball in his hands. The German playmaker was coming off two single-digit scoring performances as well, so this was a strong bounce-back performance for him.
Feb 15, 2021
Quiet in loss to Nuggets
Schroder had eight points (3-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt) and four assists in Sunday night's loss to Denver.
ANALYSIS
Schroder didn't provide much resistance as the Lakers were blown out in the second half en route to a 122-105 loss. Over his last two games, Schroder has just 10 total points on 4-of-14 shooting.
Feb 9, 2021
Scores 19 points Monday
Schroder had 19 points (6-16 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 6-10 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, a steal and a block across 38 minutes in Monday's overtime win over the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had to embrace a bigger role on offense with Anthony Davis being out due to an Achilles injury, and the point guard delivered with his sixth game with 19 or more points in the current campaign. Schroder's numbers have decreased a bit compared to what he did last season with the Thunder, but he remains an integral part of the Lakers' offensive scheme and a reliable fantasy contributor across all formats.
Feb 7, 2021
Delivers 22 points Saturday
Schroder totaled 22 points (7-9 FG, 8-8 FT), four rebounds and eight assists in Saturday's win over the Pistons in double overtime.
ANALYSIS
For the second straight game, Schroder surpassed the 20-point mark despite taking only nine shots from the field. He has combined to make 14 of 18 field-goal attempts and 13 of 13 tries from the charity stripe over that span, showing that he can make an impact despite being the Lakers' third option, at best, on offense. Though Schroder's per-game averages are slightly down in comparison to last season, he is still averaging a solid 14.2 points, 3.6 boards and 4.4 assists per contest.
Feb 5, 2021
Efficient with shot in win
Schroder totaled 21 points (7-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and four assists in Thursday's win over Denver.
ANALYSIS
Schroder took only nine shots in 30 minutes, but he registered his highest point total in over two weeks thanks to a hot hand that missed only twice on the evening. The veteran also tallied four assists to rank second on the team behind LeBron James in the contest. In his first season in Los Angeles, Schroder has assumed a starting role and is averaging a solid 13.9 points, 3.6 boards and 4.2 dimes per contest.
Feb 2, 2021
Scores 16 in win
Schroder had 16 points (6-10 FG, 1-1 3PT, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and three assists in Monday's win over the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
In the final game of a seven-game roadtrip, Schroder closed on a high note, hitting better than 50 percent of his field goals for the first time since Jan. 18 against Golden State. The guard's efficiency has fallen a bit of late, and he's down to 42.1 percent from the field and 30.6 percent from three on the season. For context, Schroder finished last season with career-best marks in both categories (46.9% FG; 38.5% 3PT).
Jan 28, 2021
Supplies 16 points Wednesday
Schroder recorded 16 points (7-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four assists and three rebounds Wednesday in a 107-106 loss against the Sixers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder unsurprisingly served as the Lakers' tertiary shooting option behind stars LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Wednesday had one of his better performances in recent memory, considering he had only supplied 23 points across all his past three road games. Schroder will look to continue that momentum during Thursday's scheduled game at Detroit.
Jan 22, 2021
Rough outing vs. Bucks
Schroder posted four points (2-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two steals, one rebound and one assist in 33 minutes during Thursday's 113-106 win over the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Thursday marked arguably Schroder's worst performance of the season, rivaled only by a Jan. 7 loss to the Spurs. He was shut down by the Bucks' strong defensive backcourt of Jrue Holiday and Donte DiVincenzo. A much easier matchup awaits Saturday when the Lakers take on the Bulls.
Jan 19, 2021
Posts season-high 25 points
Schroder registered 25 points (8-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 8-9 FT), five rebounds, three assists and two steals in a loss to Golden State on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder nearly matched the shot attempts of superstar teammates LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (back) -- both players went 6-for-16 from the field -- and easily paced Los Angeles with 25 points in the loss. The effort was third time this season Schroder has surpassed 20 points, and he has been relatively consistent by scoring in double figures in all but two games during the campaign. It's safe to say that the veteran has had no trouble fitting in with the reigning champions as he is averaging 14.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 4.7 assists across 31 minutes per game.
Jan 12, 2021
Effective performance Tuesday
Schroder registered 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and a steal across 25 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was one of six Lakers players that scored in double digits in this one, and that has been a noticeable trend for the German playmaker -- he has registered 10 or more points in all but two games in 2020-21, though those two games have come over Schroder's last four appearances. He has been a reliable scoring threat in the backcourt but, as a secondary option in an attack led by LeBron James and Anthony Davis, Schroder's upside won't be as high as it was last season when he played for the Thunder.
Jan 8, 2021
Minimal impact Thursday
Schroder recorded six points (3-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Thursday's 118-109 loss to the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Thursday marked Schroder's worst performance of the season. It was his first time scoring in single digits and also his first time dishing fewer than three assists. He should have an easier time against the Bulls on Friday, as Chicago has the sixth-worst defensive rating (114.2).
Jan 5, 2021
Adds 12 points in win
Schroder scored 12 points (5-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT) to go with six assists and two rebounds across 36 minutes in a 94-92 win over Memphis on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was just the third Laker to score in the double digits in the second of back-to-back games against Memphis. The guard's offense hasn't been a necessity like it was with the Thunder and has led to Schroder averaging his lowest field-goal attempts per game since 2015. However, Schroder is averaging nearly one more rebound and one more assist per game since moving into a starting role in Los Angeles.
Dec 31, 2020
Solid again Wednesday
Schroder totaled 21 points (9-15 FG, 3-5 3Pt), four rebounds and four assists in a win over the Spurs on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
He also led the team with five turnovers, but Schroder nonetheless enjoyed a fine night on offense, going 9-of-15 from the field and drilling a season-high three three-pointers. The 27-year-old has enjoyed a strong start to his Lakers career, averaging 17.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 5.2 assists in 29.6 minutes through five games.
Dec 28, 2020
Scores 11 in blowout win
Schroder scored 11 points (5-10 FG, 0-3 3 PT, 1-1 FT) to go with four rebounds, four assists, a steal, and three turnovers in 25 minutes of Sunday's 127-91 win over Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Schroder had a fairly casual outing as the Lakers took control of this game early and never relented. The guard is enjoying life so far in LA as a locked in starter providing for two of the best players in the game.
Dec 23, 2020
Double-doubles with 12 assists
Schroder posted 14 points (5-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 12 rebounds and eight assists across 28 minutes in Tuesday's 116-109 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
The arrival of Schroder radically changes how the Lakers operate. Despite dropping the first game, Schroder looked poised as the floor general, a role usually reserved for LeBron James. As long as Paul Vogel continues to give Schroder starts, he'll deliver with a number of assists and points.
Dec 22, 2020
Starting in Lakers debut
Schroder will start Tuesday's season opener against the Clippers, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It's not overly surprising news, but it's still notable since the 27-year-old finished as the runner-up for Sixth Man of the Year with Oklahoma City last season. Schroder averaged 18.9 points, 4.0 assists and 3.6 rebounds in 30.8 minutes during the 2019-20 campaign.
Dec 21, 2020
Available Tuesday
Schroder (ankle) will be available to play in Tuesday's season opener against the Clippers, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has been dealing with a sprained ankle over the past few days after injuring it during the Lakers' preseason game against the Suns last Wednesday. The guard appears to be healthy however, as no one is listed on the Lakers' injury reported heading into Tuesday's opener versus the Clippers.
Dec 18, 2020
Out Friday
Schroder (ankle) will not place in Friday's exhibition game against the Suns, Eric Williams of Sports Illustrated reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder is nursing a sprained ankle, so the Lakers are unsurprisingly erring on the side of caution here. He will have several more days to recover before the regular season tips off Tuesday against the Clippers. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope will get the start Friday in his absence.
Dec 16, 2020
Exits with ankle injury
Schroder won't return to Wednesday's preseason game against the Suns due to a left ankle injury, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The specifics of the injury remain unclear, and the 27-year-old will be further evaluated following the contest. Schroder had seven points (3-6 FG, 1-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 24 minutes before the injury, and he seems unlikely to be available for Friday's preseason finale at Phoenix, even if the injury is minor.
Dec 13, 2020
Available in emergency
Schroder is not expected to play in Sunday's preseason game against the Clippers, but he will be available in case of emergency, Dave McMenamin of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was in the starting lineup for Friday's opener, but he'll join LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Wes Matthews in getting the night off Sunday.
Dec 4, 2020
Being considered for starting gig
Coach Frank Vogel said that he will give Schroder "strong consideration" as a potential starter, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Vogel noted Schroder being a great fit next to LeBron James because of the guard's ability to be effective on and off the ball. Schroder was second in Sixth Man of the Year voting last season behind now-teammate Montrezl Harrell, coming off the bench for all but two games. However, Schroder still saw 30.8 minutes per game, averaging 18.9 points, 4.0 assists and 3.6 rebounds. Notably, he improved his three-point shooting, hitting 38.5 percent of his 5.0 attempts per game. Keeping that efficiency steady will be a key for Schroder in playing alongside LeBron, whether the former starts or not.
Nov 19, 2020
Officially traded to Lakers
The Lakers announced the acquisition of Schroder from the Thunder in exchange for Danny Green and the draft rights of Jaden McDaniels, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The trade has been agreed upon since Sunday morning, but the deal is now finalized with the selection of McDaniels, who was ultimately sent to the Timberwolves. Schroder is poised to work as Los Angeles' No. 3 option on offense after averaging 18.9 points, 4.0 assists and 3.6 rebounds while shooting 38.5 percent on three-point attempts during the 2019-20 season for Oklahoma City.
Nov 15, 2020
Trade to Lakers in place
Schroder is expected to be traded from the Thunder to the Lakers on Monday in exchange for Danny Green and 28th overall pick of the 2020 NBA Draft, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Trades cannot be completed until the league moratorium is lifted Monday at noon ET, but the two sides are apparently in agreement on a deal. Schroder primarily came off the bench for Oklahoma City last season and averaged 18.9 points, 4.0 assists and 3.6 rebounds while shooting 38.5 percent from deep. The 27-year-old would serve as Los Angeles' No. 3 offensive option behind LeBron James and Anthony Davis, and the move would help cover the potential departures of Rajon Rondo and Avery Bradley in free agency.
Nov 15, 2020
Deal to Lakers in process
The Lakers are in "advanced talks" to acquire Schroder from the Thunder with trades officially allowed to be completed Monday at noon ET, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Los Angeles' No. 28 overall pick in Wednesday's draft is expected to be included as part of the return package for Oklahoma City, and according to Bobby Marks of ESPN.com, the trade can't be completed until the Lakers actually make a selection. Schroder came off the bench in 63 of 65 games last season and averaged 18.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 4.0 assists while shooting 38.5 percent on three-point attempts.
Aug 29, 2020
Ejected Saturday
Schroder was ejected from Saturday's Game 5 against the Rockets, Erik Horne of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was ejected for hitting P.J. Tucker in the groin while fighting through a screen during the third quarter. Tucker was ejected for headbutting Schroder after the play. Schroder finishes the game with 19 points (6-13 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), one assist, one rebound, one steal and one block.
Aug 24, 2020
Scores 30 in Monday's Game 4 win
Schroder tallied 30 points (10-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three assists and one rebound in 31 minutes during Monday's 117-114 Game 4 win over the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was spectacular once again and has combined for 59 points across the last two contests. After combining for 19 points in the first two games of this playoff series, Schroder has been sensational. He repeatedly blew past defenders off the dribble and drained several treys, coming up clutch with buckets galore in the second half. Moreover, Schroder can likely be expected to stay in attack mode during Wednesday's Game 5.
Aug 23, 2020
Tops Thunder scorers with 29 points
Schroder finished with 29 points (10-23 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 7-9 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two steals in 39 minutes during Saturday's 119-107 victory in Game 23 over the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder finally got things going on the offensive end as the Thunder stole Game 3 and are now only one win away from leveling the series. The Thunder are running a very tight rotation at the moment, resulting in heavy minutes for Schroder despite coming off the bench. His value is typically reliant on his scoring numbers; however, he can be a sneaky source of assists and is worth considering in daily formats.
Aug 20, 2020
Scores 13, dishes five
Schroder supplied 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and five assists in 32 minutes during Thursday's 111-98 Game 2 loss to the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has combined for just 19 points on 24 field-goal attempts through the first two games of the first round and has handed out nine dimes versus six turnovers. He hasn't been able to play at the same level that he did in the regular season thus far in the series. Still, he has earned 32 minutes in each of these first two tilts, so it seems likely that coach Billy Donovan will continue playing Schroder no shortage of minutes.
Aug 15, 2020
Scores 17 points in return Friday
Schroder ended with 17 points (6-12 Fg, 3-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, one rebound and one steal in 25 minutes during Friday's 107-103 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was back on the court after missing the last few games due to the birth of his child. This was simply a case of allowing Schroder to get his legs back under him leading into the playoffs. He looked fantastic during his time on the floor and his scoring off the bench could be a crucial factor for the upcoming series against the Rockets.
Aug 14, 2020
Starting in finale
Schroder will start Friday against the Clippers, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder, in his return, will get the starting nod with Chris Paul (hand) sidelined. That said, Schroder's minutes could be limited since OKC already knows their playoff opponent -- Houston.
Aug 14, 2020
Cleared to play in finale
Schroder (personal) has been cleared to play in Friday's seeding-game finale against the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has passed his quarantine, and he'll be available for a tune-up before the Thunder begin their playoff series against the Rockets. Schroder may not play a full complement of minutes, however, so DFS managers should tread carefully.
Aug 12, 2020
Returns to Orlando bubble
The Thunder confirmed Tuesday that Schroder (personal) returned to the NBA bubble in Orlando, Erik Gee of SI.com reports. He'll complete a mandatory quarantine for four days before he's eligible to rejoin the Thunder for workouts.
ANALYSIS
While Schroder will miss the Thunder's final two seeding games while in quarantine, he should be ready to go for the first game of Oklahoma City's Western Conference quarterfinals series next week. The Thunder sixth man had been away from the team since Aug. 3 to witness the birth of his daughter, missing Oklahoma City's past five games a result. Hamidou Diallo and Terrance Ferguson will likely notice the biggest downturns in playing time once Schroder is ready to go during the postseason.
Aug 10, 2020
Not back in action
Schroder (personal) is listed as out for Monday's game against the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Schroder left the Thunder a week ago to witness the birth of his second child and remains without a definitive timeline to report back to the NBA bubble in Orlando. Whenever he arrives at the Walt Disney World complex, Schroder will have to complete a mandatory quarantine before he's allowed to rejoin the Thunder for workouts. The Thunder likely aren't counting on Schroder to be ready to play until the postseason gets underway.
Aug 6, 2020
Remains away from team
Schroder (personal) is still away from the team and is without a timetable to return to Orlando, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder departed the bubble on Monday to be with his wife, who gave birth to the couple's second child. It's unclear how long he'll be away from the bubble, but at this point he's likely to miss the rest of the Thunder's seeding games, as he'll be subject to another quarantine period once he rejoins the team.
Aug 3, 2020
Departs bubble to join family
Schroder left the Orlando bubble on Monday morning to be with his wife, who is expecting the couple's second child, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder announced the decision weeks ago, so the Thunder have been bracing for his absence since arriving in Orlando. It's unclear how long the backup guard will be away from the team, but he'll likely miss at least a week's worth of games, as he'll have to re-enter quarantine when he eventually returns to the bubble. Considering the timing, however, Schroder will likely be back with the team before the start of the postseason.
Jul 14, 2020
Leaving bubble in 3-4 weeks
Schroder will leave the bubble in three or four weeks as that's when his wife is due to give birth, Royce Young of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will miss a chunk of the resumed regular season but could be back in time for the first round of the playoffs. He'll have to go through a quarantine period when he comes back. While Schroder is sidelined, Hamidou Diallo and Luguentz Dort will likely see extra minutes.
Mar 9, 2020
Scores 27 in win
Schroder had 27 points (10-21 Fg, 3-8 3PT, 4-7 FT) and six assists in Sunday's win over the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Schroder remained on the bench with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander out, but he stepped up in a big way, taking a team-high 21 shots and combining with Chris Paul to score 55 points. The Sixth Man of the Year candidate is averaging 17.4 points and 4.2 assists in nine games since the break.
Mar 4, 2020
Drops 23 points, nine dimes
Schroder amassed 23 points (7-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), nine assists, one rebound and one block in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 114-107 win over the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Schroder fell one dime shy of a double-double, this after logging zero assists in both of the last two tilts. He's still a solid source of dimes, but scoring is clearly Schroder's most consistent contribution.
Mar 4, 2020
Scores 24 against Clippers
Schroder supplied 24 points (9-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-7 FT) and two rebounds in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 109-94 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder paced the team in scoring and bounced back following his first single-digit scoring performance (nine points versus Bucks on Friday) since Nov. 15. Schroder is likely to find himself in the mix for Sixth Man of the Year honors, and he'll try to keep it rolling during Wednesday's matchup versus the Pistons.
Feb 26, 2020
Scores 21
Schroder registered 21 points (8-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five assists, two rebounds and a steal in 32 minutes during Tuesday's win over the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Schroder put together an efficient game, topping 20 points for the 30th time this season. Despite returning to the bench this season, Schroder's responded by shooting a career-best from every distance. Overall, he's posting 19.1 points, 4.1 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 2.0 threes in 31.1 minutes while shooting 47.3 percent from the field, 38.6 percent from three and 85.1 percent from the line.
Feb 24, 2020
Moves past ankle issue
Schroder (ankle) logged 13 points (4-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists and three rebounds across 29 minutes Sunday in the Thunder's 131-103 win over the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Schroder's stat line wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but it's good to see that he was able to play a normal allotment of minutes after rolling his ankle in the Thunder's previous game Friday versus Denver. The combo guard should have a good opportunity to raise his production Tuesday, when the Thunder take on a hapless Bulls squad that will likely be without several key players.
Feb 22, 2020
Avoids injury report
Schroder (ankle) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Schroder rolled his ankle during Friday's win over the Nuggets, but his absence from the injury report indicates it's not a significant concern. The 26-year-old is averaging 19.1 points, 3.9 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 31.2 minutes and should serve in his usual role as Oklahoma City's sixth man Sunday.
Feb 22, 2020
Battling rolled ankle
Schroder rolled his ankle in Friday's win over Denver, Maddie Lee of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Schroder was mildly limited in Saturday's practice and has a chance of missing Sunday's game against San Antonio due to the ankle issue. In the event he's unable to go, look for Hamidou Diallo and Terrance Ferguson to see expanded roles.
Feb 9, 2020
Big day off bench
Schroder scored 22 points (8-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT) while adding seven rebounds, an assist, a steal and a block in 36 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 112-111 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
He was the only member of the Thunder second unit to make any kind of impact -- Schroder outscored the entire rest of the bench 22-12. The 26-year-old has hit for 20 or more points in nine of the last 10 games, averaging an impressive 24.0 points, 5.4 assists, 4.4 boards and 2.7 threes over that stretch as he continues to build a case for the Sixth Man of the Year Award.
Feb 5, 2020
Scores 30 versus Cavaliers
Schroder recorded 30 points (10-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 8-11 FT), six assists, five rebounds, one steal and one block in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 109-103 win over the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder scored at least 30 for the fourth time through 50 appearances this season, and this is his eighth straight showing with at least 21. He's averaging 19.3 points, just behind his career best in that category (19.4 in 2017-18), plus Schroder is averaging career highs in threes (2.1) and rebounds (3.9) while maintaining career-high percentages from the field and beyond the arc.

Scores game-high 24 points
Schroder tallied 24 points (8-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), nine assists, four rebounds and one steal in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 120-100 victory over Sacramento.
ANALYSIS
Schroder moved back to the bench with Chris Paul returning to the lineup. The move did little to slow Schroder who put up another strong performance. He has been a top-80 player over the past month and appears to have fully embraced the sixth-man role. He is a key piece of the Thunder's rotation and there is no reason to think he can't keep up his current pace moving forward.

Returns to bench role
Schroder isn't in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game at Sacramento, Jason Jones of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old received the spot start -- his first of the season -- Monday in place of Chris Paul (personal) and put up 21 points, seven rebounds, six assists, one steal and one block in 41 minutes, but he'll move back to the bench Wednesday. Schroder has eclipsed 20 points in each of the last five games and is averaging 24.4 points, 4.4 rebounds and 5.8 assists in that stretch.
Jan 27, 2020
Draws spot start
Schroder is starting at point guard Monday against Dallas.
ANALYSIS
Schroder will enter the starting lineup for Chris Paul, who's been ruled out Monday due to a personal matter. He's averaging 20.2 points, 4.7 assists and four rebounds over his last 10 games.
Jan 25, 2020
Tops 20-point mark once again
Schroder had 21 points (8-16 FG, 3-4 3PT, 2-3 FT), eight assists and three rebounds in 31 minutes off the bench during Friday's 140-111 win over the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Schroder has topped the 20-point plateau in each of his last three games, and he continues to be one of the league's premier scoring threats off the bench. A bonafide candidate for the Sixth Man of the Year Award, Schroder has been scorching hot during January since he is averaging 19.4 points while shooting 49.5 percent from the field and 45.1 percent from deep during the first month of 2020.
Jan 23, 2020
Big game off bench
Schroder had 31 points (13-18 FG, 3-4 3PT, 2-3 FT) and nine assists in Wednesday's win over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Schroder led all scorers in the game, and he matched his season-high total with 31 points. The guard is enjoying one of the best statistical seasons of his career, averaging 18.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 3.9 assists while shooting career-highs from the field (47.4%) and from three (36.9%).
Jan 21, 2020
Drops 23 points in win
Schroder supplied 23 points (9-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds and four assists in 34 minutes during Monday's win over the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Schroder continued his strong season with his 20th 20-plus point performance. The 26-year-old's enmeshed himself within the sixth-man-of-the-year conversation as he's averaging 18.3 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 30.9 minutes per game. Moreover, he's doing so efficiently and is drilling a career-best 46.7 percent of his attempts from the field, 36.2 percent of his threes and 81.8 percent of his free throws.
Jan 17, 2020
Plays 38 minutes off bench
Schroder put up 18 points (6-16 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight assists and seven rebounds in a loss to the Heat on Friday.
ANALYSIS
One game after going for 25 points, six assists and five threes, Schroder produced solid numbers in those three categories once again. The 26-year old is producing better value than he did last season thanks in part to his 18.3 points per game, and 46.5 percent shooting from the field. Sitting at top 150 value in nine-category leagues, Schroder gets a bump in value in eight-category leagues due to his 2.8 turnovers per game.
Jan 15, 2020
Scores 25 as substitute
Schroder had 25 points (10-17 FG, 5-10 3PT), six assists, three rebounds and two steals in 37 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 130-121 loss against the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Another night, another game where Schroder explodes off the bench as a scoring machine. The German point guard has scored in double digits in every single outing since mid-November, and he is playing heavy minutes off the bench mostly due to his scoring abilities. That said, he was coming off four straight games where he scored under 20 points, so this outing could act as a confidence booster for him.
Jan 12, 2020
Ugly shooting outing
Schroder provided 13 points (5-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, four rebounds and a steal in 34 minutes off the bench Saturday in Oklahoma City's 125-110 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Schroder could not find his shooting touch through the first three quarters, leading to only one shot in the fourth despite being on the floor for 11 minutes. He will continue to have value as the Thunder's sixth man, but performances like this demonstrate how the score-first point guard is a hit or miss depending on how he shoots in a particular game. The 26-year-old will look to get back on track Monday against the Timberwolves.
Jan 10, 2020
Hot shooting returns
Schroder amassed 16 points (7-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five rebounds and one assist in 27 minutes during Thursday's 113-92 victory over the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
The Thunder torched the Rockets with the aid of some hot shooting. Schroder was a part of that scoring display, connecting on 7-of-11 from the field. Despite coming off the bench, Schroder is putting together a nice season, often closing games as part of a three-guard lineup. His skill set is somewhat limited which does cap his upside. However, based on his current role, Schroder should be rostered in all 12-team leagues.
