NBA Sunday results: multiple heavyweights, multiple highlights, and 5 wildcard players to watch

Sunday's NBA games were full of unexpected results, with several great matchups and evenly matched highlights. While some of the players' stellar performances may not be replicable, there are still some exemption line pickups worth considering.

Notable performances

Santi Aldama: Aldama had a career night with 24 points, seven rebounds, three assists, two steals and three caps in the Grizzlies' loss to the Celtics. He made the starting lineup and could see playing time increase going forward.

Lonnie Walker IV: Walker continues to impress for the Bucks, scoring a season-high 26 points, including six three-pointers, in the win over the Jazz. He has been a consistent source of scoring and is worth owning in most fantasy leagues.

Chris Duarte: Duarte was in the Kings starting lineup with Kevin Huerter out and put up 13 points, eight rebounds, four assists and two steals. He should be streamed live if Helt is out.

Cam Reddish: Reddish has been a valuable source of steals, with three or more in five of his last seven games. He's contributed in other ways as well, hitting 7/3/3/3 three-pointers in the Knicks' win over the Pistons.

Craig Porter Jr: With Donovan Mitchell, Caris LeVell, and Isaac Okoro all out, Porter Jr. has seen an increase in playing time. He scored a career-high 21 points to go with four rebounds, four assists, two steals and a cap in the Cavaliers' win over the Magic. He's a streaming option if the stars align in his favor.

Sam Hauser: Hauser is a reliable source of three-pointers and is currently 18th in the league in three-pointers made per game. He's a valuable asset for fantasy teams that need to improve their three-point shooting percentage.
