O.J.Mayo Suspended 10 Games after violating NBA drug policy: Fantasy Impact

A borderline fantasy player since he started coming off the bench, the 10-game suspension could be ‘the final straw that broke the camel’s back’ for O.J. Mayo’s fantasy value. After a stellar rookie and sophomore year where he averaged 18.5 and 17.5 points per game, respectively, Mayo is averaging a career low 12.2 points this season.

Anthony Randolph could be Fantasy – Relevant by the trade deadline

Along with Troy Murphy, Randolph is among the biggest fantasy busts this season. After being drafted on average 79th overall in Yahoo leagues, the 21-year old has appeared in just 14 games, averaging under eight minutes per contest. Considering he has only played once in 2011, it is safe to say that he sits firmly in Knicks coach D’Antoni’s doghouse.

Fantasy Surprise of the Week Raja Bell: Is He Worth a Pickup?

After an injury-plagued 2009-10 season, Bell signed with the Utah Jazz and became their starting shooting guard.

Carmelo Anthony Trade Would Make Rip Hamilton & Troy Murphy Fantasy-Relevant

The long-awaited ‘Melo’ trade would mean a return to fantasy-relevancy for both Richard Hamilton. Hamilton would start at shooting guard, considering that the Nets’ two previous SG starters Stephen Graham and Anthony Morrow, would be sent to Denver. Although his glory days are long gone, Rip can still score and has been averaging a career-high 1.2 three-pointers per game this season.

Waiver Wire Class in Session: It’s time to pick up Ramon Sessions

When given the minutes, Ramon Sessions has proved his fantasy-relevancy. In the 2008-09 season with Milwaukee, Sessions averaged 12.4 points, 5.7 assists, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.1 steals per game despite coming off the bench for 40 of those games. Unfortunately, in 2009-10 and so far this season, he has averaged less than 23 minutes per game.

Brandon Roy could shut it down: Fantasy Impact

Earlier this season, Brandon Roy revealed that there was no meniscus remaining in either knee, meaning that he would have to deal with bone-on-bone contact for the rest of his career. In an effort to keep his 2010-11 season alive, the Blazers tried playing Roy on a minute-cap each game. Unfortunately, this did not work and Roy has been on the sidelines since Dec. 17.

Fantasy Basketball Deep League Pickups for the New Year

Rush has been averaging 13.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.2 three-pointers per game during the month of December. Still, he scores four more points per game as a starter so it is better to pick him up when he is projected to start multiple games. With January games that include the Spurs (Manu Ginobili), Warriors (Monta Ellis), Clippers (Eric Gordon), and Blazers (Brandon Roy), Rush should get a number of starts in New Year.

Pick up Rashad Jennings as Maurice Jones Drew is doubtful

Jennings has accumulated 184 total yards and two touchdowns over the past three weeks. This is quite impressive considering that Jones-Drew was the feature running back in each of the games. Now that the second year back has the start and is playing against a suspect Washington defense, Rashard Jennings could be the difference in your fantasy championship matchup.
