Tillman finished Wednesday's 117-109 win over Sacramento with two points (1-3 FG), six rebounds and three assists over 14 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman served as the primary backup behind Moussa Diabate, filling the role vacated by Ryan Kalkbrenner, who was a late scratch due to illness. Even in what could only be described as a favorable matchup, Tillman failed to produce anything of note. With Kalkbrenner unlikely to miss significant time, it's safe to assume that we will see Tillman revert back to his non-existent role sooner rather than later.

Tillman produced one block in five minutes during Wednesday's 118-89 victory over the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman's time in Charlotte has yet to yield anything of significance, typically playing as the third-string center behind Moussa Diabate and Ryan Kalkbrenner. In seven appearances as a Hornet, Tillman has scored a total of just two points, exceeding five minutes only once.

Tillman (recently traded) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman is on track to make his debut with the Hornets after being acquired from the Celtics on Thursday. Tillman is unlikely to see many minutes with his new team, given that he appeared in just three games for Boston since Christmas Day.

Tillman was traded from Boston to Charlotte on Thursday in exchange for cash considerations, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
This was a move designed for Boston to get out of the luxury tax. It remains to be seen if Tillman will be able to carve out a role in Charlotte, but there is a ton of competition for minutes there. Tillman is questionable to debut Saturday against the Hawks.

Tillman provided zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound in five minutes during Saturday's 132-106 win over the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman played his first game in almost six weeks, albeit for just five minutes during garbage time. While Neemias Queta has been able to take significant steps forward in his development this season, Tillman has been relegated to a depth role, having suited up on just 12 occasions.

Tillman will come off the bench for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Neemias Queta is back and starting, so Tillman will return to a reserve role after getting a spot start during Sunday's win in Cleveland. Tillman has not been a consistent part of the rotation this season, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him pick up a DNP-CD with Queta active.

Tillman posted nine points (4-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt), six rebounds, one block and three steals over 30 minutes during Sunday's 117-115 win over the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
In his first appearance since the Nov. 18 win over the Nets, Tillman filled in for the injured Neemias Queta (ankle) with a serviceable effort in the starting lineup. Tillman hadn't even reached the 20-minute threshold in any of his first eight games of the year, so it's hard to imagine he'll hang onto much fantasy relevance once Queta is healthy. The three steals were a season high for Tillman on Sunday, though.

Tillman ended with one assist in five minutes during Tuesday's 113-99 win over the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman was back in the rotation, albeit in a very limited role. Although the frontcourt depth in Boston is far from glamorous, Tillman has been unable to carve out a consistent spot in the lineup. Through eight appearances, he has averaged just 2.5 points and 2.1 rebounds in 8.2 minutes per game.
