With only 2 games last night, there were only 12 stat lines of 20 or more fantasy points. While that’s a bit discouraging, the most pathetic box score was JaVale McGee (C / DEN). If he weren’t a millionaire, it would be fun to point at him and laugh: 2 rebounds, 2 blocks, and 2 turnovers.

Despite giving the ball to the other team 6 times, Kobe Bryant (SG / LAL) gets a pass from us after scoring 56 fantasy points. Three rebounds and four turnovers were the only missing ingredients needed for a quadruple-double (Jason Kidd matched this feat in Nov of 2000)… turnovers actually don’t count unless you insert the word “dubious” before it: 42 points, 7 rebounds, 12 assists, 1 block, 6 turnovers, and 3 three pointers.

As predicted / suggested, Derrick Favors (PF / UTA) and Enes Kanter (C / UTA) should be started any time one of the Jazz big men are injured… Favors 39 fantasy points / Kanter 30 fantasy points.

Quite a few recent articles have focused on the lack of David Lee’s (PF / GSW) defensive skills. You don’t need a sophisticated study to see what’s right in front of your eyes. He’s a bad defender… so what? In fantasy, no owner should waste two seconds worrying about a players defensive ineptitude… unless it costs him playing time. He’s averaging 37.2 minutes per game and leads the NBA in double-doubles with 40 (Zach Randolph is in second with 35). D Lee is fine: 29 points, 11 rebounds, assists, and 2 turnovers.

At this point in the season, the majority of leagues have locked roster transactions. Some owners in re-draft leagues stopped paying attention a long time ago. And keeper / dynasty league owners that are in position for a good draft pick next season are carefully tanking (it may look like they’re trying to win; they aren’t).
With that being said…
Jimmy Butler (SF / CHI) should be owned in all dynasty leagues: 20 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals, 1 turnover, and 3 three pointers (24% owned).

Yesterday’s Top 5 was a typical one. Let’s look a bit further down the list this morning…
Chandler Parsons (SF / HOU) scored a career-high 32 points en route to a team-high 36 fantasy points on Sunday. He’s a stud this season and a must-start player until further notice: 32 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 turnovers, and 6 three pointers.
