Who gains with Wallace, Williams, Holmgren, Topić and Caruso all out
4 games without Wallace, 61 with him (2025-26 and 2026-27 regular season, only games Gilgeous-Alexander and Holmgren played).

With Wallace out, Jaylin Williams played 22 minutes a game instead of 17 and put up 17 fantasy points instead of 16 (4 games).

Aaron Wiggins, who went from 19 to 35 minutes in these games last season, is now with ATL.

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.
