BALLER MOVE: Add in Shallow Leagues
ANALYSIS: Wright has been in a bit of a funk lately, so he is getting dropped at a high rate after a hot streak brought him up to nearly 50 percent ownership. I have written about Wright before, but when bringing up field-goal percentage, there is no one else you should consider if he is still available.
Only Tyson Chandler, Anthony Davis, DeAndre Jordan and Derrick Favors really come close to having the same potential impact on overall field-goal percentage that Wright can deliver. Those other four guys are universally owned, and with good reason.
While Wright will not continue at a 73.1 percent clip – it has already started dropping with the cold streak – his rate should stabilize near the 67.7 percent rate he put up last season. On around 5.5 attempts per game, that is great. And if he gets more attempts, look out.
