Sampson played just four minutes in Monday's loss to the Cavaliers. He finished with two points (1-1 FG), two rebounds, and a turnover.

EDGE Analysis

Nik Stauskas appears to be back to full strength after right tibia stress reaction sidelined him for much of training camp, followed by a bout with back spasms that kept him out of the season opener. However, he played 29 minutes while starting at shooting guard Monday, resulting in Sampson assuming a deep bench role. With the prospect of limited minutes likely hanging over Sampson's head until further notice, he'll have difficulty maintaining fantasy value in any format.
