Barnes hauled in a season-high eight rebounds, although his scoring left a lot to be desired, tallying single digits for the sixth time in the past seven games. After an encouraging start to the season, Barnes' production has dipped in recent times. In 17 appearances over the past month, he has averaged just 7.9 points and 1.2 three-pointers in 25.2 minutes per game, leaving him well outside the top 300 during that span.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes scored in double digits for the first time in the past five games. After a nice stretch during the month of November, Barnes has regressed on the offensive end, averaging just 10.2 points and 1.6 three-pointers per game in 14 appearances over the past month. Despite having two hands on a consistent starting role, Barnes should be viewed as nothing more than a streaming option in fantasy.

He currently holds a 15.1 percent usage rate across 32 appearances with averages of 12.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 2.2 three-pointers. He remains a low-end fantasy asset in category formats.
