EDGE Analysis

VanVleet's six steals marked a season high and was one shy of his career high. However, his shot fell apart in the process, breaking a streak of four double-digit scoring performances. The point guard has dealt with ups and downs this year when it comes to his shot. Even though his field-goal percentage is getting back on track, he can't seem to find his touch from deep. VanVleet is on pace for a career-low 32.0 percent three-point shooting mark.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran point guard continued his recent hot streak from long range, and VanVleet has gone 15-for-30 on three-point attempts over the last three contests. His overall offensive game remains inconsistent, however -- over his last 12 appearances, VanVleet's averaging 16.5 points, 5.8 assists, 4.8 boards, 3.2 three-pointers and 0.8 steals, but he's also shooting just 36.4 percent from the floor.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet has been enduring a rough patch of late, including a four-game stretch between Dec. 11 and Dec. 22 in which he averaged 7.8 points per game while shooting 21.7 percent from the floor, but he's been turning things around of late. The veteran floor general has reached the 20-point mark in back-to-back games for the first time since a back-to-back set on Nov. 17 and Nov. 18. His December numbers still look subpar compared to his regular standards. Still, the last two games offer a glimpse of hope for fantasy managers who continue to trust VanVleet in most formats.
