Fantasy Analysis
Hamilton played his best game since returning to the lineup on Tuesday night as he seems to be finding his offensive rythym again. However, the veteran is still only seeing around 20 minutes per contest, which is a trend that will likely continue over the final two weeks of the season. While he might be able to light up the scoreboard from time to time, Hamilton can not be trusted as anything more than a low-end option at this point in the season. (Updated 04/11/2012).

In one move, veteran G Richard Hamilton went from the worst Fantasy environment (Detroit) to one of the best (Chicago). Hamilton was waived by the Pistons in the offseason after he clashed with then-coach John Kuester last year that resulted in his removal from the team's rotation. He resurfaced in March to prove that he could still be entrusted with a high shot volume and he could return to Fantasy prominence again this season. A season removed from averaging 18.1 points per game, Hamilton will certainly benefit along the perimeter because of the slashing presence of Bulls G Derrick Rose. If Hamilton returns to a prominent role, he can once again be trusted to contribute solid numbers from beyond the arc and is worthy of a selection in the middle rounds of 2011-12 Fantasy drafts.
