Starting Friday
Kornet is in the Spurs' starting lineup against the Pacers on Friday.
Analisi
Kornet will return to the Spurs' starting lineup after Victor Wembanyama (knee) was ruled out. Kornet started in 17 regular-season games while Wembanyama was sidelined due to a calf injury, and over that span the former averaged 7.6 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.6 blocks over 25.9 minutes per game.

Grabs nine boards in win
Kornet had seven points (3-4 FG, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and one block over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 134-132 victory over New York.
Analisi
Kornet grabbed nine rebounds for the second straight game, although the bigger talking point was the fact that Victor Wembanyama suffered a knee injury, limiting him to just 24 minutes. While the initial diagnosis is relatively positive, there is certainly a chance he could miss at least a couple of games, thrusting Kornet back into the standard league discussion.

Lends support under basket
Kornet racked up 10 points (3-4 FG, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 23 minutes during Monday's 113-101 loss to the Cavaliers.
Analisi
Although Kornet was a direct replacement for Victor Wembanyama during the game, the duo actually shared the floor for a few minutes in the first quarter. The team was quite effective in this setup, as they closed the gap with a 14-3 run to end the quarter. This could be a scheme that the Spurs could utilize more frequently in the future, as the scenario benefited both players.

Shifts to bench in loss
Kornet accumulated seven points (2-3 FG, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block in 19 minutes during Saturday's 127-114 loss to the Jazz.
Analisi
Kornet resumed his spot on the bench, with Victor Wembanyama moving back into the starting lineup. The demotion likely signals the end of Kornet's standard league value, having now scored no more than eight points in three straight games. At best, he can still be utilized for streaming purposes, providing ample production in both rebounds and blocks.

Back to bench Saturday
Kornet is not starting against the Jazz on Saturday, according to NBA reporter Matthew Tynan.
Analisi
Kornet will return to his regular bench role with Victor Wembanyama back in the first unit. This will limit Kornet's fantasy upside considerably, as he's averaging just 9.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game when playing off the bench.
