Aldridge recorded 28 points (11-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and three assists during a 118-109 road win over the Lakers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Aldridge finally logged an excellent performance after giving limited production in recent matchups (10.0 PPG in three games). The veteran has been a decisive factor; San Antonio is 4-0 when he's played over 20 minutes. Considering his value to the team, Aldridge should remain an important fantasy player despite beginning this season poorly.
