BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
OWNED IN: 66% of Yahoo Leagues
ANALYSIS: The title says it all, as Will Barton is a pedal to the metal player for the Denver Nuggets. He plays aggressively and tries to get to the rim as much as possible. Naturally this fearless (hence the "no chicken") style of play will lead to a lot of fouls, both on him and against him. Barton is making the most of his chances at the free-throw line to the tune of a very strong 90.3% free-throw percentage.
Just from that you would think he's just a John Salmons-ish guy who only has value in terms of racking up points. However, Barton is much more than that as he contributes stats across the board. He's only shot below 40% for a game one time this season, and can hit from range too. The big cherry on top though is that Barton is averaging 5.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and is consistently getting steals as well.
He is criminally under-owned at this point as he's still available in just over a third of leagues, so scoop him up now before it's too late.
