Fantasy Analysis
Vasquez has proved to be a capable replacement in Jack's absence and his numbers have spiked when he's in the starting lineup. In 17 starts this season, he has averaged 11.8 points and 6.6 assists per game. The former first-round pick has also registered a double-double in two of his past three outings -- both with Jack out of the lineup. Fantasy owners should look to add him in most formats for the remainder of the season. (Updated 04/09/2012).
