Aaron Brooks, Houston Rockets
Going up against the Los Angeles Lakers, Aaron Brooks has a definite speed advantage against Derek Fisher. Expect him to have the ball a lot and he should have a good series.

Rafer Alston, Orlando Magic
The Magic will need Alston to defend Rajon Rondo on the Boston Celtics. With those extra minutes, Alston could have a few big games along the way.

Delonte West, Cleveland Cavaliers
The Atlanta Hawks are quick and fast, which will result in more minutes for Delonte West. He should get plenty of looks from beyond the arc.

Chris Anderson, Denver Nuggets
Everyone loves the Birdman. Against the Mavs, he should be able to put up quality fantasy basketball stats — especially in blocked shots.

DeMarcus Nelson, Golden State Warriors
This undrafted rookie has a chance to play a lot of point guard for the Warriors this season. In fact, many people connected to the Warriors believe that DeMarcus Nelson has been the best point guard in training camp.

Aaron Brooks, Houston Rockets
Although Aaron Brooks is a backup in Houston, he is playing behind Rafer Alston – who is always seemingly a ticking time bomb. During preseason, Brooks has played well and has solidified a spot in the rotation. Watch for him to breakout if he ascends to the starting roll.

Chris Douglas-Roberts, New Jersey Nets
One of the most talented scorers in the 2008 NBA Draft, Chris Douglas-Roberts will play the season with a chip on his shoulder after falling to the second round. In preseason, he has shown an ability to score and with the Nets likely not making a push for the playoffs, CDR will get plenty of shots.

CJ Miles, Utah Jazz
The Jazz are expected to start CJ Miles at small forward this season – at least to start with. If he plays well, Miles should be able to hold onto that job for the duration of the season. Miles is a good shooter who can score the ball and also play solid defense. With enough minutes, look for Miles to be a fantasy basketball viable player.

JaVale McGee, Washington Wizards
One of the best looking bigmen of the 2008 NBA Draft has been JaVale McGee. Although he’s young, skinny and raw, McGee looks like a player who has a chance to help right away. He’s extremely athletic and very quick on his feet. He could play a roll with the Wizards and put up nice numbers in rebounds and blocked shots.

Could JaVale McGee go down as the sleeper of the 2008 draft class?

Acie Law, Atlanta Hawks
While Acie Law hasn’t been overly impressive this season, the Hawks drafted him to be their point guard of the future. Expect him to get a chance in the second half of the NBA season to play point guard full time. He’s a smart player, he just has to catch up speed-wise to the NBA.

Aaron Brooks, Houston Rockets
Speed is one thing Aaron Brooks doesn’t lack. He’s a fearless competitor who has a big heard despite his small stature. While his minutes have been sporadic of late, he’s arguably the most talented point guard on the roster and could start at some point.

Javaris Crittenton, Memphis Grizzlies
The Grizzlies liked Crittenton enough to give up Pau Gasol. That should tell you something about his potential. While he has Conley and even Kyle Lowry ahead of him in the rotation, he’ll get a look and could even get some time at shooting guard.
