2012 Fantasy Basketball: Alec Burks & other daily hoops studs for Tuesday 2/28
The NBA resumes tonight with more than half of the teams in action, so plenty of options for the resumption of daily leagues.
Here's my picks for tonight:
First, the cheapies:
Alec Burks, Utah: His playing time has picked up in the last two weeks and he has responded with double-digit fantasy points in five of his last six games, but still just 55k in DailyJoust.
Aaron Gray, Toronto: He’s an inexpensive starting center who had 29 fantasy points in 30 minutes last time out.
Trevor Booker, Washington: He's still a bargain on DailyJoust at 77k and he's scored in double figures for fantasy points every game since becoming a starter with some big games in between. Milwaukee is soft inside, so a good matchup.
Now for some mid-priced guys:
Tayshaun Prince, Detroit: Always undervalued, he's averaging more than 20 fantasy points per game in recent weeks at just over 100k on DailyJoust.
DeAndre Jordan, LA Clippers: Vinny Del Negro scared daily fantasy players when Kenyon Martin cut into Jordan's minutes, but his minutes are back and so are his steady performances.
And for the studs:
Kevin Love, Minnesota: He's as reliable as anyone and coming off his three-point contest win, he may have some more confidence behind the arc. He also loves playing in his old college town of L.A.
Deron Williams, New Jersey: He's been hot and Jason Kidd won't slow him down.
Greg Monroe, Detroit: Another guy who has been a monster lately and Philly doesn't have a center to guard him.
