Fantasy NBA Players of the Week 21

It's time for the playoffs! At least in fantasy world, that is... Now owners of sure fire teams better be careful with their players as we might see DNPs more liberally. LeBron started it last week, and the Lakers will probably follow suit resting Kobe some games especially since Bynum is now down for at least 2 weeks.

Now the mythical 5...

Monta Ellis (GSW) - 2.5 3FGM, 27.0 PPG, 2.3 RPG, 7.8 APG, 3.5 SPG [2]

Vince Carter (ORL) - 3.0 3FGM, 25.5 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 7.0 APG [1]

LeBron James (CLE) - 1.3 3FGM, 26.3 PPG, 8.8 RPG, 8.8 APG, 1.5 SPG, 1.5 BPG [12]

Troy Murphy (IND) - 3.3 3FGM, 19.3 PPG, 12.3 RPG, 3.5 APG, 1.8 SPG [1]

David Lee (NYK) - 21.3 PPG, 15.0 RPG, 5.3 APG, 1.3 SPG, 1.0 BPG [2]


On this week's list, LeBron and VC are the only ones who will play on in the NBA Playoffs. The rest will be goin' fishing soon enough. So, we can expect less from these big team players to reserve them and avoid injury. I suggest stocking on some bench talent to supplement your true players. Then, if anybody is injured, add and drop.
