J.J. Barea (PG/SG, DAL) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues

OWNED IN: 33% of Yahoo! Leagues

ANALYSIS: He may be little, but he's playing big right now. J.J. Barea has played exceptionally well while Deron Williams has been shelved. Over the last eight games Barea has scored double digit points seven times. He only shot under 43% in one of those games, and has shot over 50% in five of the games. Barea has been shooting well from range too, hitting 18 shots from downtown over this eight game span. He's more than scoring too as he's averaged over five assists per game over the last eight. What's not to like?

As long as D-Will is out, Barea should continue to be a stud. He has no competition as Raymond Felton has been pedestrian at best. Scoop Barea up while you can and win that title. If anything winning big with a little guy adds insult to injury to your opponents.
