The Fantasy Basketball Stock Watch

On the Rise
Samuel Dalembert – C – 76ers
Dalembert is not a gifted scorer. His value lies in what he can give you on the boards and in the shots that he blocks. In his past 10 games, he has provided plenty of value in those categories, averaging 11.2 rebounds […]

Caron Butler, Washington Wizards
At some point before Gilbert Arenas is ready to return, you may look to trade away Butler if you can get great value in return. For example, if you can get a Kobe Bryant or a Shawn Marion in a package involving Butler, you should pull the trigger on that trade. […]

Fantasy Basketball – Who’s Cold

Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas Mavericks
Nowitzki has been the ultimate streaky player as of late. In his last 11 games, he either has scored under 20 points or over 25 points. Lately, he’s been taking the under. The low point came Friday when Nowitzki had a season-low seven points against the New Orleans Hornets. The previous game, […]

Fantasy Basketball – Who’s Hot

Kirk Hinrich, Chicago Bulls
Finally! Hinrich had been horrible all season but is finally starting to turn it around. He had a triple-double on Friday against the New York Knicks, finishing with 15 points, 14 assists and 12 rebounds. That was Hinrich’s fourth solid game in a row. If he’s on your league’s waiver wire, […]

Fantasy Basketball: Fool’s Gold

Kareem Rush, Indiana Pacers
Rush exploded for 22 points on Wednesday and looked very good in doing so. However, that’s not something you can expect out of him. He’s a one-dimensional streak shooter who can just as easily go 1-for-8, just like he did the previous game for the Pacers. Keep him on your league’s waiver […]
