Shead proved himself to be a worthwhile secondary playmaker last season, averaging 5.4 assists in 22.6 minutes per game, adding 6.6 points, 0.9 steals and 1.0 three-pointers. Although he has been a modest contributor over his first two seasons, Shead has solidified himself as the primary backup behind Immanuel Quickley, a role that shouldn't change too much heading in the 2026-27 season. Expect to see him flirt with 22 minutes once again, which at least has him on the radar as a stream-level player for anyone needing assists. Should Quickley miss any time during the season, Shead could be a popular short-term addition, even in standard fantasy leagues.
