This is the Monday January 7th, 2012 edition of “ALl Thigns Fantasy”. In this edition I talk fantasy basketball player news, recent injuries, answer some caller/twitter questions, and give some pickups for this upcoming week. Also, talk about some fantasy MVPs based on ADP (Average Draft Position). Here are my notes from the show.
Dwight Howard- Torn labrum
Anderson Varejoa- Sounds like he is returning Weds
Tyreke Evans- Expected back tonight
Andrew Bynum (53% ESPN,71% of Yahoo) – Please drop him
Kevin Love- out another 4-6 weeks
Pau Gasol- out for next 2 games atleast
Kyle Lowry- not playing as much
Pickups (% owned in ESPN leagues)
Pickup of the Week
Antwan Jamison (5.4%)- Should get plenty fo minutes with Gasol and Howard out. This is a great pickup for the short term that could end up being solid long term
Dante Cunningham- (1%) played 42 minutes and scored 10 points, grabbed 12 rebounds, while dishing 2 assist, 2 steals, and 3 blocks last game,
John Henson (2.3%)- in his last 3 games is averaging 13.3 PPG & reb PG, 1.7 APG & BPG, 59% FG, 25 min .
Derrick Williams (1.4%)- will get plenty of PT now that K- Love is hurt again, Think he is the bigger beneficiary of his injury even though Dante Cunningham is playing 42 Min
Glen Davis (37%)- is averaging 16 points, 8 rebounds, close to 2 assist, and 1 steal per game this season
Robert Sacre
Thadeus Young is a great roto player- 52.5 FG%, 59 FT% (3 a game), 14.8 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.6 assist, 1.7 steals, 1 block per game
