ESPN’s Shams Charania broke the news on Saturday morning detailing the latest change for the Wizards since their trade-deadline shakeup. McDaniels hasn’t played in an NBA game since 2023-24 and is unlikely to impact an impact for fantasy purposes.

It appears like McDaniels won’t won’t be in San Antonio for long. The Kings wanted to clear up roster space and he doesn’t fit the Spurs’ vision. McDaniels averaged 6.9 points and 3.3 rebound across his first five NBA seasons.

McDaniels logged just 10.8 minutes across 50 games for Toronto last season, but there’s a chance he will see an uptick in playing time for his new team as Keegan Murray’s primary backup at PF.

McDaniels made his first start on Wednesday, with the 37 minutes being a season-high. This was only the second time he’s surpassed 20 minutes in a game. McDaniels didn’t shoot the ball well playing against his brother Jaden, but the rebounds and assists were solid. Under normal circumstances, Jalen would not be considered a must-add in any fantasy leagues. However, given how shorthanded the Raptors have been recently (only eight players were available on Wednesday), he’ll be worth a look if that remains the case. The same can be said for Jordan Nwora, who played 29 minutes off the bench and finished with 14 points, 13 rebounds, five assists, and one 3-pointer.
