Fantasy Analysis
Gay has endured a couple of scoring slumps so far this season but he has looked better of late and is starting to put up more points. He is averaging 20.4 points with seven rebounds and 1.8 steals in his last five contests, and is shooting nearly 44 percent over that span. The 25-year-old has become adept at filling up the stat sheet on a nightly basis and has some favorable matchups in Week 8 (Feb. 13-19). With Houston, New Jersey, Denver and Golden State on the schedule, continue to roll with Gay as a solid option in Fantasy. (Updated 02/11/2012).

02/02/2012 22:17 Gay leads way as Grizzlies rout Hawks
Rudy Gay scored 21 points to lead five Memphis players in double figures and the Grizzlies blew out the listless Atlanta Hawks 96-77 Thursday night.
Rudy Gay missed the team's playoff run last season due to a separated shoulder. The injury is expected to be fully healed in time for him to be 100 percent for the 2011-12 season and that will once again make him worthy of a pick somewhere around the fifth round of most standard formats. Capable of scoring near 20 points per contest, he should also contribute around six boards and nearly two steals per game. Last season, he upped his assist average to 2.8 per game and also averaged a career-best 1.1 blocks per tilt. Count on him for at least a 3-pointer made per game as well. (Updated 8/28/11)
