thoughts on Jimmy Butler and Avery Bradley moving forward 

Post#1 » by Levity » Thu Jan 31, 2013 4:52 am

What do you guys think of Jimmy Butler and Avery Bradley as fantasy options to end the season?

Butler, for those who havent been following him, started for Deng for 5 games and put up close to 15/9/and a steal a game. and even when deng returned on monday, butler still put up 19/6 and tonight 18/6/ and 2 steals. Do you see him putting up anything close to these numbers while coming off the bench for the rest of the season(he'll probably get minutes at both the 2 and 3) and how do you see rose's return affecting him

Bradley, in 2 games rondo has been out, put up 9/4/2 and tonight 11/5/2 assists/2 steals and a block(both games he got about 30 mins). These are probably the type of numbers to expect from him on a nightly basis, but also with room for improvement.

Do you think these two can hold fantasy value til season end? Of the two, who would you prefer?

If Bradley can contribute a few things across the board he'll be a solid pickup. He gets the minutes and Boston loves him. He averaged 15 ppg as well for quite a span of games last year, IIRC.
