Sampson contributed eight points (3-5 FG, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds over 13 minutes in Thursday's 116-98 loss to the Hawks.

EDGE Analysis

Sampson is still holding down a starting role at small forward, but he's been little more than a placeholder in the lineup since Danilo Gallinari (ankle) went down with a long-term injury. Sixth man Will Barton has been seeing the majority of the minutes at the position and remains among the Nuggets' leading scorers, and his presence should continue to render Sampson virtually uninteresting in most fantasy formats. Sampson is averaging 4.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 0.9 assists over 18.1 minutes over nine appearances in March.
