BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 16% Yahoo!
ANALYSIS: Doug McDermott is just a rotational player coming off the bench in Chicago, but has played fewer than 20 minutes in only three games so far this season. He can be viewed as just a three-point specialist in most leagues, and his value definitely depends on the hotness of his hand on any given night. On Jan. 15, McDermott scored 31 points, going 9-of-16 from the field, 3-of-6 from three-point range, hitting 10 of his 11 free throws. He also grabbed six boards with one steal, one block and just one turnover in 33 minutes of playing time.
Chicago could look to rebuild soon, and if it were to deal away any key players, that would definitely make more room for McDermott to show off his shooting potential. Even if the Bulls’ roster remains the same, McDermott is still worth a look. With his season averages of 10.4 PTS with 1.2 3PM on 43.9 FG% and 89.8 FT%, 3.3 REB, 1.1 AST, 0.3 STL, 0.1 BLK and 0.6 TO in 26 minutes a night he can come in handy for some standard league fantasy teams.
