Fantasy Analysis
Brown was injured in a victory over the Miami Heat on Jan. 10. In nine games this season, Brown averaged 6.3 points and 6.3 rebounds in 20.8 minutes. He was giving some quality minutes and giving the Warriors a defensive presence. Brown should not be owned at this stage of the season as his chances to return are slim. (Updated 01/20/2012).
02/10/2012 21:47 Minus Rose, Bulls pound Bobcats
Joakim Noah had 17 points and 14 rebounds, Carlos Boozer scored 16 points and the Chicago Bulls throttled the Charlotte Bobcats 95-64 Friday night despite the absence of reigning MVP Derrick Rose.
Brown was one of the few pleasant surprises in Fantasy last season, as a strong second half made him relevant in more than a few formats. After getting off to his typical slow start, Brown really played well over the final two months of last season. He averaged 9.4 points and 7.0 rebounds per contest in the 25 games following the All-Star break and really seemed to thrive under the tutelage of head coach Paul Silas. While Brown has been in the league for nine seasons now, it is still possible he has not reached his ceiling yet. Silas thinks Brown is just getting started and many feel he can get his scoring back into double-digits this season. However, we understand the how some owners may be reluctant to pull the trigger on Brown based on his track record. Still, because center is such a thin position, consider grabbing Brown in the later rounds on Draft Day as a No. 2 center option. (Updated 8/28/11)
