2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Box Score Browsing – Kyrie, Kanter, Khris and Kenneth
Kyrie Irving In case you’ve been sleeping under a rock or you’re hibernating til the Rugby World Cup (just me?) starts in September, you may have missed Irving’s otherworldly shooting performances. If you haven’t seen the Cavs-Spurs thriller in San Antonio, do yourself a favor and watch it, or as
2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Box Score Browsing – Oh Danny Boy!
Danny Green Danny Green is doing unbelievable things in the fantasy world. In fact, nobody has ever done what he’s doing this season, as his combination of threes en masse (2.6 per game), solid steals (1.4) and well above average blocks (1.3) make him an absolute fantasy stud. The Spurs
2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Box Score Browsing — We Wish Jrue a Merry Christmas
Jrue Holiday Happy Holidays – tis the season for Pelicans’ guards to start producing! It doesn’t hurt that the fantasy force known as Anthony Davis has been banged up over the past week, but both Holiday and Tyreke Evans (more on him below) have seriously stepped up their play as
2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Week 6 Trend or Mirage?
Michael Carter-Williams – TREND This guy, this is my kind of guy. This guy, is not my kind of guy. MCW lit the fantasy world on fire with his explosion onto the scene in his rookie campaign, basically peaking in his first career game with that magical 22 point-7 rebound-12
2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Box Score Browsing — Thou Shall Covet Covington
Robert Covington The hype is slightly premature, but if Robert Covington is available in your league, stop reading and add him now. While his path to fantasy relevance hasn’t exactly been ‘standard’, Covington has shown glimpses of being a legit scoring option, with big upside in threes and free throw
2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Week 5 Trend or Mirage?
K.J McDaniels – TREND If you’ve ever read anything by me or seen me ranting on Twitter, you’ll know I’m on the McBandwagon. What I love about his fantasy game is the ‘bonus’ stats – the rebounds, the steals and the blocks from the SG/SF positions. Any SG can average
2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Box Score Browsing — Laws-on First, Wils-on Second
Ty Lawson The Denver Nuggets have been humming along over the last couple of weeks, in no small part to the diminutive Tywon Ronnell Lawson running the show beautifully. While his coach Brian Shaw seems to want to ruin many a fantasy season (finally Timofey Mozgov getting some burn!), the
2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Week 4 Trend or Mirage?
Brandan Wright – TREND Is there a more efficient bench player in the league than Brandan Wright? There may not be a player who makes the most out of both his opportunities and his team fit, as Rick Carlisle utilizes his back-up big beautifully off the bench. Wright’s been absolutely
2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Box Score Browsing – The Butler Did It
Jimmy Butler If ever there was a call for evidence to see how a player plays in a contract year, it was Trevor Ariza last year. Jimmy Butler is doing the exact same thing this year, except he’s on his way to a deal likely doubling what Ariza scored from
2014-15 Fantasy Basketball: Week 3 Trend or Mirage?
Arron Afflalo – TREND The buzz on Afflalo is that he was somewhat of a late bloomer in terms of getting it together on the offensive end of the court. He was drafted as a potential 3 and D guy by the Pistons, but didn’t really get a chance
