I would pick up Salmons who will probably start. Stuckey and Maxiell might be a wise choice too, but you'd have to double check detroit's status for me... There's always Noah, but his ceiling in the final week doesn't seem very high.

But I want to make sure that Ronny is out for the season first.If he is then yeh i am definatley going to pick up salmons for him.But KG is the one im not that sure of,last night he did great for me but IIm scared that he will sit out another game.Im alright if he plays about 20-25min a game because he would probably put up better stats than anybody that is available.And Maxiell,Amir,and Stuckey have been getting alot of min

News: Artest ruled himself out of the Kings' lineup Tuesday night to rest his sprained left thumb.
Analysis: Artest sat out for the second time in three games with his injured thumb, which also might require surgery, according to Artest. Since Artest has been making the call on his own availability for recent games, Kings coach Reggie Theus hasn't decided whether to shut down his second-leading scorer for the final week of the season.

I don't like the way this sounds. The thumb is really bothering him and affecting his shooting in a major way. The fact that they are already considering shutting him down along with the fact that the Kings really have nothing left to play for leaves me feeling uneasy about Ron's prospects. I would grab Stuckey.

I dont see Artest playing another game this season. KG will likely play limited minutes the rest of the way, but I've heard that they not playing KG, Pierce or Allen at all against weak teams. If you can drop KG and rotate in good players every day for the rest of the season, I would do that.
