Drains five triples Wednesday
Gillespie registered 17 points (6-15 FG, 5-11 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block over 27 minutes during Phoenix's 129-113 loss to Cleveland on Wednesday.
Analysis
Gillespie did most of his scoring from beyond the arc, extending his streak of at least five three-pointers to three games while finishing as the Suns' fourth-leading scorer behind Devin Booker (32 points), Dillon Brooks (20 points) and Jamaree Bouyea (18 points). Gillespie has taken a leap since entering the Suns' starting lineup permanently Dec. 1, and he'll end the month of December having averaged 16.3 points, 5.4 assists, 4.5 rebounds, 3.3 threes and 1.8 steals over 31.4 minutes per game while connecting on 44.0 percent of his three-point attempts.

Powers Phoenix to victory
Gillespie posted 25 points (10-14 FG, 5-8 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists and two steals across 29 minutes during Monday's 115-101 win over the Wizards.
Analysis
Gillespie turned in his best scoring performance since Dec. 1, and he did so in an efficient fashion. The Villanova product has been locked in from beyond the arc of late, knocking down four or more triples in each of his last four appearances. Gillespie has been no slouch on the defensive end, racking up eight total steals over this four-game stretch.

Comes close to triple-double
Gillespie amassed 17 points (6-14 FG, 5-7 3Pt), seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 31 minutes during Saturday's 123-114 win over the Pelicans.
Analysis
Gillespie had a well-rounded performance in this matchup, and he finished just three boards and three assists away from recording what would've been his first triple-double on the campaign. Gillespie has scored over 15 points in five straight games and should remain a valuable fantasy asset as long as he can continue to score at this rate.

Sniffs double-double during win
Gillespie contributed 16 points (6-13 FG, 4-9 3Pt), three rebounds, nine assists, one block and one steal in 35 minutes during Friday's 115-108 victory over the Pelicans.
Analysis
Gillespie led the Suns with nine assists while logging his eighth consecutive start in the backcourt. He's averaged 15.0 points, 4.8 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.8 steals during the stint with the first unit. We won't see Jalen Green (hamstring) until mid-January, making Gillespie a reliable short-term starter.
