Fantasy Analysis
Haywood was finally able to get back on the court Monday night, but was not much of a factor against Dwight Howard. Still, at least he is healthy again, so owners can continue to view the 32-year-old as a low-end No. 2 Fantasy center in the majority of formats moving forward. (Updated 03/30/2012).

J.J. Hickson has never really delivered on his potential, in part due to him being a defensive liability. However, as our Chris Towers writes, his could provide an offensive spark for both the Blazers and owners.
04/01/2012 21:06 Lawson, Nuggets edge depleted Magic
Ty Lawson scored 12 of his 25 points in the second half and Arron Afflalo added 22 points as the Denver Nuggets beat the short-handed Orlando Magic 104-101 Sunday night.
Brendan Haywood is just a season removed from averaging 9.8 points and 10.4 rebounds over 49 games for the Wizards before he was traded to the Mavericks. He averaged 8.1 points and 7.4 rebounds over the remainder of that season with the Mavs, but the addition of Tyson Chandler for the 2010-11 season severely It into Haywood's minutes and touches. At 31, Haywood is still more than capable of putting up near double-double production if given the playing time. However, Fantasy owners should look to him as no more than a potential stashee candidate late in drafts given the limited playing time ahead of him as long as Chandler is healthy. (Updated 8/28/11)
