Multiple Zags returned to action this week after missing time with injuries. Sabonis, Hachimura, and Clarke all hit the floor again, and did so with some solid performances. Bulldog alums abroad also had a good week, including a new career high in a regular season finale.

Domantas Sabonis: Domas returned from his ankle injury to post three consecutive double doubles, his 36th, 37th, and 38th of the season. Those games include 18 points, 15 rebounds, and 9 assists in a win over Brandon Clarke and the Grizzlies and 22 points, 10 rebounds, and 7 assists in a win over Kelly Olynyk and the Rockets.

Kelly Olynyk: Olynyk has been playing well ever since joining the Rockets, and now has four double doubles in his last five games. His most recent outing came against Domas and the Pacers, where he scored 25 points to go along with 10 rebounds, 2 assists, and 3 steals. He also had 13 points and 11 rebounds against the Clippers and 18 points against Golden State.
