He was a really nice breakout candidate before Russell, Crabbe and Carroll were all added during the summer.

jbent87 wrote:not sure this can qualify as a sleeper but Ben Simmons is going to have boxscores that make people say "Joel Embiid who?" this season, as far as which guy being the face of the franchise goes. I'm talking 12/18/16/4/4 games. He's going to play the 1 on O most of the times getting his assists there, or drives to the rim if the d comes out on him, and then will be playing PF on D to eat up rebounds. Can't wait.


You could be right to a degree, he's a great all around talent, but I wouldn't expect any 4 block games this season. He's just not that type of shotblocker.

We'll see how much Brown puts the ball in his hands but I suspect that his assists, rebounds and steals will all be solid his FT%, 3's, TO's will all be negatives, point, blocks and FG% somewhat neutral.

Aaron Gordon could breakout next season, he had a nice season turnaround when they put him in his right position at the 4.


I have Middleton in two Suns forum fantasy leagues...a dynasty league started last year (got him late since he was injured) and then got him in the third round this year in a 13 team redraft league to add to KAT and Kemba.

The dynasty league is pretty deep with 16 teams, but being able to get him late was huge, because I got Westbrook, Gobert, Middleton, Porter and Horford as five of my keepers. Got Caris LeVert too, so hopefully he has a breakout season.

gary harris - drafted him in round 9 (10 team) last night. i think people are not taking him seriously so he can be had for a bargain given that he's the starting SG. also has SF eligibility in yahoo.

I keep on reading about Gary Harris. Some of the Fantasy BBall sites suggest that he's a solid mid-round pick. I'm wondering if I should pick him up somewhere in the 70s pick range....but think that I should reach for him in the 60s.

What makes him so compelling as a pick?

Thoughts?

fg%, 3pters, steals, anticipated increase in ppg. offers a few assists and rebounds but likely wont average above 4 per fame for either.
