DENVER NUGGETS Marcus Camby
So far so good with regard to Marcus Camby’s health. He has played in 31 of the possible 32 games so far for Denver Nugguts. That’s pretty impressive for this injury-prone fantasy monster. Camby will miss a few games but will be able to play 75 games this year – most ever in his career. Camby is a high risk high reward player so for those who took the risk, very good for your fantasy team. You’re in line for more of his current averages of 8.8 points, 14.3 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.0 steals and 3.8 blocks!
MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES
Randy Foye
Rumors say he might return as early as next week. If Foye is still available in your league grab him now! If he’s owned by other teams go ahead and buy him low. This is your last chance of getting him, go ahead and persuade the owners who owned Foye to make a trade with you because I'll bet you, he will explode! Mark my words, Randy Foye will blow up! To all you doubters out there, my boy Randy will go and average 20 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 1.5 steals and will contribute 2 threes per game.
Al Jefferson
Big Al is the lone consistent player that the Timberwolves have right now. His current numbers are 20.8 points, 12.3 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game. With the return of Randy Foye, expect Big Al to play even better. When Foye returns, Jefferson will average 24 points, 13.5 rebounds and will have 2 blocks per game.
PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS
Travis Outlaw
Outlaw's potential is intriguing and will beat out Martell Webster in the starting five by the end of the season. After the all-star break, Outlaw will go on provide its fantasy owners Danny Granger like statistics. Outlaw will average 17 points, 6 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 block and 1 three. Can I hear you say buy low?
LaMarcus Aldridge
As much as the improvement of Aldridge by posting 18 points, 7.5 boards and 1.1 blocks per game, I don’t see his numbers improving. I also don’t see him going on to play 70 games as well. It's up to you if you want to keep him or trade him.
SEATTLE SUPERSONICS
Jeff Green
As much as focus given to Kevin Durant, I want to focus on the other Sonics’ rookie - Jeff Green. 2008 will be a phenomenal year for Green; he will go on and average the same statistics he posted during his junior year in Georgetown. Jeff Green will average 14 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.2 blocks.
UTAH JAZZ Carlos Boozer
Boozer has been excellent this year. As expected, this Boozer will go on and average a double-double but won’t give you a block. Boozer is currently averaging 24 points, 11.4 rebounds but what impresses me most is yeah he is a big man who will not contribute in the blocks category but can be a boost with steals and assists. Booze is averaging 1.4 steals per game and 3 assists per game. I don’t see him going down soon in terms of statistics and injury. Go on and ride him to a playoff spot!
Kyle Korver
As much as most people think that Korver’s value will go down the drain after his trade to the Jazz, I think otherwise. I'm a believer in Korver, and he will see minutes substituting Kirilenko and Ronnie Brewer and will at least match last season's averages - 14 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.8 threes per game. That’s the least so expect a higher average.
(Editor's note: With Korver in Utah, it's Ronnie Brewer who stands to lose the most. While Brewer is a good defensive player, Korver is a better threat from long range, their specialties might results in a deadlock in terms of fantasy value. I'm thinking Korver will see around the same or less minutes than Brewer, and average around 11 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 1.8 threes.)
