In Wednesday’s game against the Celtics, Jalen Duren struggled with his shooting but excelled on the boards, collecting a game-high 16 rebounds. Despite the shooting woes, his rebounding prowess has been a consistent highlight, marking the fifth instance this season with 15 or more rebounds. Surpassing preseason expectations, Duren has proven to be a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, maintaining a top-40 status in both eight- and nine-category formats. His current level of play suggests sustainability moving forward.
