While Brent Barry isn’t a very good fantasy basketball player these days, he’s still valuable in leagues that value efficiency. Barry at his advanced age is still a very efficient player who makes few mistakes while on the court. He can also produce point, assists and three-pointers in his limited minutes.
Barry has missed the last two months after injuring his calf for the second time. The reports out of San Antonio are that Barry could begin playing later this week. Although he’ll come off the bench, Barry could still play a 15 to 18 minute role on the Spurs.
Before you pickup Barry, you might as well see if he can play and how many minutes he will get. There’s no point in wasting a roster spot on him at the moment. Calf injuries tend to linger so there’s no guarantee that he’ll be much of a player when he returns.
However, if he has a good game or two and plays quality minutes, consider him as an option in the final week of the 2008 fantasy basketball season.
