Terrence Ross (Forward) - Waiver Wire Pickup

The upside is obvious.  Ross is capable of scoring 51 (!!!) points in a game, raining down threes, and contributing a decent tally of steals.  And in the short term, while DeMar DeRozan is out with an ankle injury, Ross will be locked into 30+ minutes/game while the reserve wings are busy filling in for DeMar.  Ross has a big chance to earn himself a longer leash going forward. Just don’t pin too high of expectations on such a raw, young player after one great game.  He followed up Saturday’s ridiculous effort by shooting only 3/9 for 10 points on Monday, after all.  He’s only 22 and the flipside to this youth is going to be inconsistency.  He’s had plenty of duds this year, and will have plenty more.
