Kenyon Martin, anyone?

With K-Mart just recently signing with the Clippers, how do you figure his fantasy value will be?

I know he stunk up the joint in China, but it looks like he'll be getting plenty of burn in LAC behind Griffin and Jordan.

So what do you guys think: Is he worth the immediate waiver wire pick-up? Or do you think it's better to wait a week and see how his progress is?

***Also, how do you think he'll compare with Spencer Hawes? Hawes lit up the league early but has obviously come back down to Earth with the injury. Im curious, because I'll probably end up dropping S-Jax for one of them.

Yeah Martin isn't that great for fantasy and he's also backing up Blake.

OT: Who's better to keep Bayless or Barbosa :s

I'd pick up Bayless over Delfino. But if Barbosa is available I'm not sure who to get between Bayless and Barbosa.

Thanks guys, I've never paid much attention to K-Mart's fantasy stats, so its good to get some feedback. And add me to the list of guys who put Barbosa ahead of Bayless. With Demar struggling and Bargnani out indefinitely, he's been a strong source of offense for the Raps.

Just to add, does anyone have the slightest idea when Hawes will return? Maybe a die-hard Sixers fan? I've got S-Jax prepared to be dropped for waiver fodder (something he's been all season but I've been waiting for the right move to come along). Also, someone who was stashing Brook Lopez in my league has caved-in and decided to drop him for someone producing immediately, would he be worth the pick-up instead?

So Ultimately, should I drop S-Jax for Lopez or Hawes? I all ready have a roster spot dedicated to a long-term injury player, Ginobili- so I'm not too sure if grabbing Lopez is the best thing or not (depends on his status). I'm currently first in my league right now, but I've been underperforming significantly the past two weeks, and the league is especially competitive with only 5 points seperating 1st from 9th place (hence why I'm weary of injuries).

As always, some help would be appreciated. Thanks guys

Finally Hawes is expected to return tonight. He might not put up good numbers or minutes for the next week but he is further along then Lopez and will get more minutes than S-Jax.

Damn right, finally. Thats an update I've been waiting for...

Now to decide between picking up Hawes for his immediate contributions, or grabbing Lopez and waiting two weeks or so for his. I'm not sure which way to go, but tonight's line by Hawes will definitely help.

EDIT: DAMN, someone picked up Hawes on me. Serves me right for waiting.
