When teammates sit

His minutes and fantasy points in real games without a teammate.

No teammate's absence has changed his minutes much yet (we need 5 or more games without them to say).

If he sits, who gains

In 7 games without him, Craig Porter Jr. went from 15 to 23 minutes and 12.9 to 24.4 fantasy points a game.
