Latest news
Essengue chipped in 10 points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-5 FT) and four rebounds across 16 minutes during Friday's 125-111 loss to the Celtics.
Essengue reached double-digit points for the first time this season, with nine of his points coming in just three minutes of playing time in the fourth quarter. The second-year pro is averaging 14.0 minutes off the bench this season, but he's not worth streaming even in the deepest of fantasy leagues unless more opportunities were to open up for him.

Essengue (head) is available for Monday's game against Boston.
Essengue was held out of Saturday's clash against Washington after being diagnosed with a head contusion, but the issue won't force him to miss any additional action. He's totaled five points, four rebounds, one assist, three steals and one blocks in 27 total minutes through his first two appearances of the 2026-27 campaign.

Essengue (head) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Boston.
Essengue was held out of Saturday's loss to the Wizards as a precaution due to a head contusion, though he's now in danger of missing a second straight game. His absence would leave additional minutes available for guys like Leonard Miller and Zach Collins.

Essengue (head) won't suit up for Saturday's game against the Wizards, Joel Lorenzi of The Athletic reports.
Head coach Tiago Splitter said he's holding Essengue out of Saturday's game as a precaution, so it doesn't sound like he'll be out long. His next chance to play will come Monday in Boston.

Essengue (head) has been downgraded to questionable for Saturday's game against the Wizards.
Essengue initially drew a probable tag due to a head contusion, though he's trending in the wrong direction ahead of the second leg of this back-to-back set. If the 19-year-old forward is ultimately ruled out, Leonard Miller and Zach Collins could see increased minutes.

Essengue (head) is probable for Saturday's game against the Wizards, Joel Lorenzi of The Athletic reports.
Essengue may have picked up the injury during Friday's 132-125 win over the Bucks, when he played 17 minutes and finished with four points, one rebound, one assist, three steals and one block. The probable tag indicates that the injury isn't considered a serious one, but that could change up until Saturday's 8:00 p.m. ET tipoff.
