Rui Hachimura

PF, Washington Wizards

Rui Hachimura got the "Ben Simmons treatment" on Wednesday and was shut down, going 2-for-11 from the field to end the game with eight points, eight rebounds, two assists, one 3-pointer and one steal in a team-high 39 minutes.

Ouch. Hachimura slammed into that proverbial "rookie wall" tonight and his owners are the ones who'll be aching the next day. That said, he's still worth riding until the NBA restart ends, due to the Wizards' lack of active productive players. His production isn't going to be pretty, but it'll likely do the trick over your garden variety FA pickup.
