Walter Herrmann, Detroit Pistons
Although few fantasy basketball owners expected much out of Walter Herrmann this season, he’s been amazing in the first two games for the Detroit Pistons. In 19.5 minutes per game, Herrmann is averaging 13 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists. If he can carve out an even bigger role, Herrmann could become fantasy relevant once again like he was a few years ago on the Charlotte Bobcats.

Zaza Pachulia, Atlanta Hawks
While it seems like Zaza Pachulia has been around forever, this bigman from the Republic of Georgia is only 24-years-old. Since he’s been relegated to a bench role behind Al Horford, he’s been all but forgotten in the fantasy basketball community. That said, he’s playing very well so far this season and if he can move up into the starting lineup, Pachulia has already proven he could average around 12 points and eight rebounds per game.

Roger Mason, Jr., San Antonio Spurs
When with the Washington Wizards in recent years, Roger Mason, Jr. was a one-dimensional scorer. So far this year with the Spurs, he’s looking like a legit NBA player who could have a bright future. He’s on fire shooting the ball very well and is doing a better job in terms of racking up assists and rebounds. It’s actually quite likely that Mason could supplant Michael Finley in the starting lineup for San Antonio.

Ronnie Brewer, Utah Jazz
Ronnie Brewer is hardly a secret. But so far this season, he’s been playing outstanding basketball. If he’s on your league’s fantasy basketball waiver wire, it’d be a good idea to pick him up. His per minute stats are off the charts and he’s a player who could blossom into an almost All-Star level player if given enough minutes.

Nene, Denver Nuggets
Nene isn’t getting much love in fantasy drafts and it’s tough to understand why that’s the case. Nene was a beast last year in the second half of the season. He understandably started off slow after missing all of the previous season with a torn ACL. By the time the playoffs came around, Nene produced very nicely against a tough Spurs front line. As a starter, Nene last year averaged 14.2 points and 8.2 rebounds. You can expect those numbers for an entire season this year.

Channing Frye, Portland Trailblazers
Frye is a player who is going undrafted in some fantasy drafts. While he did have a poor season last year with the Knicks, he still has loads of potential. He’s an active bigman with a nice touch from the outside. He can rebound and block shots. With Greg Oden out injured and Zach Randolph out of the picture, there’s a good chance that Frye has a bounce back year in Portland.
