55 games without Sabonis, 16 with him (2025-26 and 2026-27 regular season, only games DeRozan, Raynaud and Clifford played).

With Sabonis out, Keegan Murray played 34 minutes a game instead of 27 and put up 30 fantasy points instead of 14 (23 games).

Devin Carter, who went from 15 to 19 minutes in these games last season, is now with BOS.

Big numbers are per game without him; “was” is with him, counting only games the teammate played. “Shots” is field-goal attempts. Fewer than 5 games is marked as a small sample.
