Mirza Teletovic (PF, PHO) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues

OWNED IN: 26% of Yahoo! Leagues

ANALYSIS: I can hear Philip Seymour Hoffman yelling "let it rain!" when I think of Mirza Teletovic's offensive game. All the guy does is shoot three-pointers, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The Suns have all but waved the white flag on their season, so I don't think they have a problem letting Teletovic shoot to his heart's content. Teletovic has been playing a solid amount of minutes over the last six contests, averaging slightly over 24 minutes per game during that span. He's also averaging 16.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.4 3-pointers over his last five games while shooting at 47 percent clip in those five games.

Teletovic could go cold at any time, but he should still get plenty of usage over solid minutes going forward. The Suns are banged up with injuries to Alex Len and Brandon Knight coming on top of the season-ending injury to Eric Bledsoe. Meanwhile, Tyson Chandler should be added to a missing person's report, as he was barely seen even in Len's absence. Markieff Morris is in the doghouse and on the trading block. Teletovic will have a big opportunity and is looking like an asset in all leagues right now, and not just for his prolific shooting from range. Teletovic will bring passable rebounding numbers to the table, and also sprinkle in some assists and steals. Grab him now if you need a boost, and, who knows, you may just be pleasantly surprised the rest of the way.
