Fantasy Pickups – Owned less than 50%
If you have an empty roster spot (injury) or want to drop someone, check out these players. All of them are owned in less than 50% of (Yahoo) fantasy leagues and are worth picking up, especially in deep leagues.
Matt Barnes (42% owned): Barnes has been filling up the stat sheet lately. In his last 11 games, he averaged: 10.4 PPG / 5.6 REB / 2.1 AST / 0.8 STL / 0.7 BLK / 1.8 3PT
Grab him up, he is starting right now.
Omri Casspi (38% owned): One of the hottest free agents these days. He’s played 36.0 minutes per game in his last five contests with averages of 15.0 PPG / 6.2 REB / 3.0 AST / 0.6 STL / 0.6 BLK / 1.8 3PT
He needs to be owned right now
Jeremy Lin (37% owned): A lot of people added him after last night’s explosion, but he’s been pretty decent before that and is always one injury away from being a must own guy. In his last 7 games, he averaged
14.3 PPG / 3.4 REB / 3.0 AST / 0.9 STL / 1.1 BLK / 1.0 3PT
O.J. Mayo (30% owned): To be honest, Jason Kidd’s rotation is a Gongfu Tea Cup and you can’t anticipate what happens the next game. But somehow O.J Mayo has been the Bucks’ starting SG over the last couple of games and he’s played well. Well enough to be picked up in most leagues. In his last 8 games, he’s averaged:
14.0 PPG / 2.9 REB / 4.0 AST / 2.0 STL / 1.8 3PT
Raymond Felton (30% owned): He’s started the Mavs’ last 6 games and he’s been phenomenal! Pick him up immediately. In his last 6 he averaged:
13.2 PPG / 6.5 REB / 5.5 AST / 1.2 STL / 1,7 3PT
