Warriors' Kyle Anderson: Slides back to bench Monday
Rotowire
Anderson isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Raptors, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
After making a spot start in Friday's game against the Pacers, Anderson will slide back to Golden State's second unit in Andrew Wiggins' (personal) return Monday. Anderson has averaged 5.1 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 0.8 steals in 14.8 minutes in 29 games off the bench this season, so his fantasy appeal has been limited in a reserve role.

Warriors' Kyle Anderson: Making spot start against Pacers
Rotowire
Anderson will join the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Pacers, Alex Golden of the 'Setting the Pace' podcast reports.
With veteran Draymond Green (back) getting the night off during the second leg of Golden State's back-to-back, Anderson will fill in at power forward for the Warriors in his third start of the season Friday. Anderson is capable of filling the box score when given meaningful playing time, but he's averaged 4.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 threes in 15.8 minutes across his two other starts, so fantasy managers' expectations should be tempered despite the veteran's move to the first unit.

Warriors' Kyle Anderson: Plays well off bench
Rotowire
Anderson recorded five points (2-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists, two blocks and three steals in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 114-98 loss to the Heat.
While Anderson didn't have a great night shooting the ball, he had his best defensive performance of the season. Even with Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) out a few weeks, Anderson will be hard to trust in most fantasy formats. Over his last five games, Anderson holds averages of 5.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks in 17.4 minutes.

Rotowire
Anderson registered five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and two steals in 15 minutes during Friday's 102-92 loss to the Clippers.
Anderson received just his second start of the season, but he didn't touch the floor during the final quarter of play. Despite being an every-night part of the rotation, Anderson's role has been far from consistent. His minutes have ranged from four to 24, preventing him from building any sort of momentum.

Warriors' Kyle Anderson: Getting start Friday
Rotowire
Anderson is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Clippers, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
The Warriors will be without Draymond Green (back) for this one, so Anderson will get the nod as his replacement at power forward. Anderson doesn't provide a lot in fantasy, though. He's averaging 4.7 points and 2.3 rebounds per game since the beginning of December.

Anderson is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers due to an illness.

Warriors' Kyle Anderson: Muted role in spot start
Rotowire
Anderson racked up three points (1-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 17 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 victory over the Timberwolves.
Making his first start of the season at power forward in place of Draymond Green (ankle), Anderson played the fewest minutes (17) of any Warriors player that saw action Saturday. Over his last nine games, Anderson has averaged only 5.0 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 0.7 three-pointers in 13.1 minutes per contest. Even if Green sits out Monday's tilt against the Pacers with his ankle injury, Anderson can be ignored in the majority of fantasy formats.

After a slow start to the season, Anderson is quietly trending up for the Warriors. In his last four appearances, he's averaging 6.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.0 blocks in 18.8 minutes. He's someone to keep an eye on whenever the Warriors are shorthanded.
