Santos provided 19 points (7-10 FG, 5-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes during Thursday's 131-106 victory over the Bulls.

The Brazilian has recently experienced a more significant role off the bench and has taken full advantage of the opportunity.

Santos provided 19 points (7-10 FG, 5-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes during Thursday's 131-106 victory over the Bulls. Santos had one of his most efficient performances of the season and scored in double digits for the fourth time across his last eight outings. The Brazilian has recently experienced a more significant role off the bench and has taken full advantage of the opportunity. Over that eight-game stretch, Santos is averaging 8.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.0 assists while logging 21.0 minutes per game.
Santos posted 16 points (6-9 FG, 4-5 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists over 23 minutes during Wednesday's 123-117 loss to the Kings. Santos has been seeing more minutes of late, logging at least 20 minutes in five of his last seven appearances, and he's making the most of the opportunity. The Brazilian forward is averaging 7.4 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.1 assists across 20.1 minutes per game during that seven-game stretch. He could have some upside in deep leagues as a streaming option.
Santos will move to the bench for Saturday's game against the Wizards, ESPN's Ohm Youngmisuk reports. Draymond Green (illness) is returning from a three-game absence Saturday, so this is an expected move. Santos fared well in his fill-in start during Wednesday's 116-115 win over the Timberwolves, finishing with five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), seven rebounds and three assists across 21 minutes.
Santos produced five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), seven rebounds and three assists across 21 minutes during Wednesday's 116-115 win over the Timberwolves. The second-year forward made his first career start with Draymond Green (illness), Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) and Kyle Anderson (hamstring) all sidelined, and while Santos didn't make a significant impact, he did pull down a season high in rebounds. Green shouldn't be out long, but there should still be a substantial role for Santos in the Golden State frontcourt when he returns to the bench -- he's played more than 20 minutes in three of the last four games, averaging 7.3 points, 4.5 boards, 2.8 assists, 1.8 threes and 1.0 steals during that span while shooting 52.6 percent from the floor and 53.8 percent (7-for-13) from long distance.
Santos will start in Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves. It'll be the first career start for Santos, who has come off the bench in each of his 38 appearances since 2023-24. The 22-year-old has reached double figures in scoring in two of his last three games, but it's hard to imagine the Warriors making this a long-term move once the team is healthier. That said, Santos will have a chance to return enhanced fantasy value Wednesday.
Santos had 13 points (4-6 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and two steals over 26 minutes during Thursday's 107-104 victory over the Pistons. Santos had his best game of the season for the Warriors during Thursday's win against Detroit. With Draymond Green and Jonathan Kuminga out, Santos saw a significant boost in minutes, playing 26 to help shoulder the load. The 22-year-old made the best of those minutes with an efficient shooting night, hitting four three-pointers in six attempts while grabbing five rebounds and two steals.
Santos chipped in zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across five minutes during Friday's 102-92 loss to the Clippers. Santos appeared for just the eighth time this season, having played a total of 36 minutes to this point. With averages of 0.8 points and 0.4 assists in 4.4 minutes per game, it's fair to say Santos is right at the bottom when it comes to the pecking order in Golden State.
Golden State recalled Santos from the G League's Santa Cruz Warriors on Monday. Santos has seen most of his reps at the G League level, and that's likely to continue. He'll likely be back with Santa Cruz prior to the G League Winter Showcase.
The Warriors assigned Santos to the G League's Sant Cruz Warriors on Friday. Santos will return to the NBA after a brief stint in the NBA. The 22-year-old forward is averaging 14.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.5 steals in 31.8 minutes across four G League appearances.
