Ruled out Saturday
Melton (knee) will not play Saturday against the Thunder.
Analysis
Melton was unable to shake his questionable tag for this contest. The Warriors also have a back-to-back set coming up on Monday and Tuesday, and the best-case scenario for Melton's fantasy managers is that he will be cleared for one of those games.

Iffy to face Thunder
Melton (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Thunder.
Analysis
Melton continues to be day-to-day with his ongoing knee soreness. If the veteran guard is unable to play, the Warriors could be very thin in the backcourt -- Will Richard (ankle) and Seth Curry (back) are also questionable.

Scores 23 points in OT win
Melton ended Thursday's 115-113 overtime victory over Houston with 23 points (10-22 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, two blocks and three steals in 30 minutes.
Analysis
Melton not only ended as one of the top scorers for the Warriors in this game, but he also posted a loaded line that included two or more tallies in each of the five major categories. Melton also bounced back from the seven-point output (3-14 FG) in the loss to the Clippers on Monday. He's averaging 17.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game since the All-Star break and should continue to see an elevated role as long as Stephen Curry (knee) remains sidelined.

Struggles to score in loss
Melton racked up seven points (3-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Monday's 114-101 loss to the Clippers.
Analysis
Melton continues to work his way back from last year's ACL surgery, and he remains a strong source of triples and swipes despite Monday's dud. The veteran guard has averaged 16.7 points, 3.2 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.2 steals and 2.5 three-pointers in 25.7 minutes per game over his last six contests.
