Earl Boykins – Fantasy Gold?

Earl Boykins signed with the Charlotte Bobcats in a move that largely went under the radar in most fantasy circles. However, you should be well aware of this move. Boykins, while he’s not a great NBA player, he can at times be a great fantasy player.
The Bobcats have Raymond Felton and Jeff McInnis, but neither […]

Damon Stoudamire to the Suns or Celtics?

The Grizzlies and Stoudamire are reportedly nearing a buyout on his contract. Stoudamire, who began the season as the team’s starting point guard, would become an attractive free agent on the open market.
Stoudamire was having a decent season in Memphis until they gave the job to rookie Mike Conley. Now Stoudamire doesn’t have a role, […]

Fantasy Basketball Buy Low Candidates

Kevin Garnett, Boston Celtics
Garnett has been far from dominant recently. His points are down, his rebounds are down and his overall play isn’t as great as it was earlier in the season. That said, he should be a very good fantasy option down the stretch run of the season. Right now, he’s going through the […]

Waiver Wire Power Forwards

Nene, Denver Nuggets
Nene is returning from injury and has played well in his time back with the Nuggets. Always a huge talent, Nene used his time away to get into better shape. Although he has a lot of competition from quality bigs such as Kenyon Martin and Marcus Camby, Nene should be able to carve […]

Waiver Wire Small Forwards

Kyle Korver, Utah Jazz
The Jazz traded for Korver and Korver has been playing pretty well for Utah. With Ronnie Brewer’s minutes getting lowered recently, Korver could conceivably find himself in the starting lineup by the end of the season. The Jazz desperately need a three-point shooter and Korver is one of the better shooters in […]

Waiver Wire Shooting Guards

Nate Robinson, New York Knicks
Robinson might be the shortest shooting guard in NBA history. At a listed 5-foot-9, Robinson just doesn’t have what it takes to be a point guard in the NBA. That said, he has shown enough ability at shooting guard to make him a very good prospect at that level. […]

The first “Stock Watch” of the New […]

Right now in fantasy basketball, there are some interesting point guards on the waiver wire. Each of the four point guards below would be quality waiver wire pickups. While none of the four are sure bets, they each could blossom into very good fantasy players.
Mike Conley, Memphis Grizzlies
Conley recently returned from injury and is now […]

Fantasy Basketball: Sleeper Centers

Nazr Mohammed, Charlotte Bobcats
Mohammed was having a very quiet season with the Detroit Pistons before he was traded to the Bobcats. Now in Charlotte, Mohammed is playing very well. In his first start, Mohammed had 17 points, eight rebounds and three blocks. In his second game as a starter, he had 20 points, 14 rebounds […]
