Each Wednesday we’ll take a look at the hottest free-agent
pick-ups from around the National Basketball Association to help
you in setting your upcoming lineup. Some players might have
short-term value, while others might be moving up to have some
long-term value. We’ll sift through the names so you can make the
best choice for your team.
Shannon Brown, PG, Phoenix: It is surprising to
see Brown on the waiver in so many leagues. In fact, he is owned in
only about 35-40 percent of Fantasy leagues, although his ownership
is steadily climbing. He has averaged 13.4 points per game (ppg)
over his 11 contests to date, and he has chipped in with 12
3-pointers, 2.3 rebounds per game (rpg) and 1.8 assists per game
(apg). He continues a little bit across the board, but his main
focus is scoring. If you need help in this category in Rotisserie
leagues, snap him up. However, he has a little more value in
head-to-head formats, especially since he is hitting just 41.4
percent from the field.
