Thursday’s NBA Preseason Action
Grant Hill, Phoenix Suns
Hill was the story of Thursday’s preseason action. The former superstar who has been slowed by injuries had a breakout performance. In the first half against the Los Angeles Clippers, Hill had 21 points to show that he still has a little bit of magic left. While he’s still a risky pick due to his injury history, he could really blossom into a very good fantasy player considering his skill level and the system he plays in.
Kevin Martin, Sacramento Kings
Martin was inconsistent last season, leading some fantasy players to wonder how he’d perform this year. So far in preseason, Martin has looked better than ever. On Thursday, Martin had 25 points in 24 minutes of action. While he doesn’t do much in the rebounding or assist department, Martin is a great scorer who should be able to build upon what he did last year.
Al Horford, Atlanta Hawks
Horford had an outstanding game against the Bobcats. In 34 minutes of action, the rookie had 22 points, 12 rebounds and four blocks. Those are superstar numbers. That said, Horford is a bit of a fantasy enigma. He has great potential, however he’s likely going to be coming off the bench. The bench isn’t a place you want your fantasy player living. However, if Horford starts, as he will eventually, he’s definitely a very nice fantasy prospect.
Gerald Wallace, Charlotte Bobcats
Wallace showed fantasy owners a bit of a reminder of what he’s capable of on Thursday. He scored 34 points, grabbed ten rebounds, got two steals and blocked two shots. That type of production makes Wallace a very good fantasy player who could end up being one of the best fantasy players in the NBA.
