Fantasy Basketball Steals

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I managed to snag Carmelo Anthony in the second round and Devin Harris in the third. D-Wade was my first rounder. I was shocked that both of them dropped that far.

Anyways, if you can get either Emeka Okafor or David Lee in the middle rounds, you should. I managed to grab them both. Okafor is gonna have a great year, catching passes from Chris Paul for easy layups and dunks, and he was already a double-double machine in Charlotte. Same deal with Lee.

Also, Brandon Jennings will be available in the late rounds. Seeing as Ramon Sessions isn't in Milwaukee anymore, I'd expect Jennings to have a pretty good rookie year, even if he is playing for the Bucks.

You mean the same PG that hasn't shot even 30% in any preseason game this year?

Yes, the same one that had 16 points on 5-10 shooting Saturday, along with 7 assists, 2 rebounds, and a steal.


6-33 through the first few games is hideous, I'll give you that, but it was probably more jitters and unfamiliarity than anything. He played pretty well when they let him start.


Low-risk, high reward.

17 ppg and 9 apg through 2 games. Brandon Jennings has looked great so far, and he netted me 24 points on 9-16 shooting tonight in the scoring column to go along with 3 assists and 3 steals.

Get him if you still can.
 
I drafted 3 guys in somewhat later rounds that used to be studs, and their doing great for me: J-Smoove, Camby, and Marion.
Camby is the leading fantasy scorer on my team

My 2nd and 3rd best players I got in free agency: Lou Williams and Aaron Brooks
 

That was one of the better last pick in the draft moves I've seen. Nice deep sleeper.

I learned last year to keep an eye on Maximus's team. He had the hot tip on Nene last year and pulled Oden and Andray Blatche out of the bargain bin this year.

My sleepers were 2nd year players Courtney Lee, Rudy Fernandez and Marc Gasol. They just seemed to be more experienced than most NBA fans realized, and due to inexperience and injuries around them, they are emerging.

With Devin Harris out for the next week or so, Rafer Alston should give people great production as a short-term peice.

I'm keeping a lid on my other sleepers for the time being.
 
Marreese Speights is my sleeper choice of the early season. He's had a couple big scoring games in only 22 minutes a game so far. If Brand goes down again, I'm in like flint.
 
On a serious note, Channing Frye

Bound to increase his numbers playing in Phoenix, they are going back to run and gun style and he is now the starting Center.
I picked him up as FA and he is averaging 18 pts a game and past two games he has 6 3's in each game.
 
Marc Gasol, is all I have to say.

Absolutely. I picked him up near the end of the draft, after I had already drafted Scola, Okafor, and Lee, and the guy has been a monster through his first few games.
 
My Marc Gasol man-crush is reaching unhealthy levels. He dropped 40 pounds this summer and has turned into his older brother. He is my fantasy team captain.
