Mike Conley will step into the starting lineup against the Wizards on Wednesday due to Jaden McDaniels’ absence with a wrist injury, ending McDaniels’ 158-game streak. While Conley has offered limited fantasy impact this season, his return to the starting five alongside consistent starters Anthony Edwards, Donte DiVincenzo, Julius Randle, and Rudy Gobert could enhance his value. This change presents an opportunity for fantasy managers to monitor Conley’s performance closely.
