C Andrew Bynum, Los Angeles Lakers
To begin the fantasy basketball season, Andrew Bynum has been amazing. He seems to be living up to his vast potential. That said, expect his numbers to come crashing back down to earth once Pau Gasol returns. Trade him now while he’s putting up superstar numbers.

5. Chris Bosh, Toronto Raptors
Although Bosh had a stretch of the season in which he struggled, he’s back to playing great basketball. The acquisition of Shawn Marion has opened up his game a little bit and he’s able to concentrate more on scoring the basketball.
4. LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers
LeBron has been shooting the ball extremely well from the outside, shooting better than 41% on three-pointers in the month of March. If he can add good outside shooting to his repertoire, he’ll become even more impossible to defend.
3. Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas Mavericks
His three-pointers aren’t dropping at their normal rate (30% …read more

Filed under NBA Teams, NFL Player Analysis
The Toronto Raptors are a mess. At 10-17, they are vastly underperforming their expectations. They’ve already fired one head coach and the players don’t seem to be responding to the new head coach.
All that said, they have some interesting fantasy basketball options. First and foremost is Chris Bosh. At the beginning of the season, Bosh was one of the best fantasy bigmen in the NBA. But recently, he has been in a major slump. His shooting percentages have plummeted and he’s settling for too many jumpers. He’s also not rebounding or blocking shots as well as usual. The good news …read more

1) Amare Stoudemire, Phoenix Suns
As the season went on, Amare Stoudemire got strong and stronger. By the last couple months of the season, Stoudemire was by far the best fantasy basketball bigman in the game. His past injury concerns are now behind him.

Filed under Injuries, NFL Player Analysis
Although Chris Bosh has only missed eight games, it has seemed a lot longer since the power forward was able to suit up for the Toronto Raptors. The Raptors have struggled without him and fantasy owners have also been counting down the days until they can add back to their lineup.
That date appears to be just around the corner. Bosh has targeted this coming Wednesday as the day he will return from his knee injury. When Bosh first went out, most people thought he’d only miss a few games. While it’s been quite a bit longer, it’s good to see …read more

Filed under Injuries, NFL Player Analysis
Chris Bosh has played very well this season and has been a very nice fantasy basketball option. With Bosh’s sore knee, there is now a bump in the road. The good news for the Raptors and Bosh fantasy owners is that he isn’t expected to miss much time.
The plan right now appears to be to rest Bosh the next three games and then he should be ready to go after that. However, a sore knee can be a tricky injury. It’s a nagging type injury that could slow Bosh down for an extended period of time. If you are still …read more
