TOP PLAYERS TO PICK UP BASED ON OWNED % 1. Aaron Afflalo (SG Denver-Owned in 10.7% of ESPN leagues): Afflalo finished fourth in league in scoring (20.4) during the preseason. He also finished second in three-pointers (20) and nearly recorded a triple-double in his final preseason game (24-10-9). He is one of the players I have been raving about during the RC fantasy basketball podcasts.
The reason I bring up the preseason is because he continued his hot play in his first regular season game. He recorded 22 points, 3 threes, two steals and shot 73% (8-of-11) from the field and 100% (3-of-3) from the foul line. Afflalo also played in 35 minutes as the starting shooting guard. He will continue to see the majority of playing time with J.R Smith coming off the bench. If the Nuggets decide to trade Carmelo Anthony, the fantasy value of Afflalo should increase even more. Either way he is poised for a breakout year in his fourth season.
2. Marco Belinelli (SG Hornets-Owned in 4.9% of ESPN Leagues): Belinelli had an impressive first start with his new team finishing second in points (18) and making a team high five three throws. He also pulled down six rebounds and made one three in 35 minutes. Marcus Thornton played in only 11 minutes. The Italian born player was a popular sleeper going into the season because of his strong preseason play. If he continues to see the majority of playing time over Thornton then his fantasy value will skyrocket playing with Chris Paul.

Below, we look at the happenings from the past week in the NBA and apply what we learn in order to assist us in our waiver wire moves and trades. Our Games-per-Week Schedule Grid is especially useful throughout the season, so make sure you download it, print it, and keep it by your side to consult for every decision you make. Personally, I like to take a blue highlighter and "blue out" the column for the current week each Tuesday as to easier see the good and bad stretches on the horizon.
