Fantasy Analysis
Bosh has been slumping a bit lately, so it was nice to see him put together a solid effort on Friday night. The 27-year-old has been a bit more productive during his second year with Miami as both his shooting percentage and points total are up from last year's thus far. While Dwyane Wade and LeBron James may steal some of his thunder from time to time, Bosh's overall production remains consistent enough to consider him a No. 1 Fantasy F moving forward.

Chris Bosh's production took the biggest hit of the Big Three during his first season in Miami. Bosh seemed very unsure of his role over the first few months of the season, acting almost passive and even lost at times on the floor. The 27-year-old's production decreased in almost every single offensive category last season, including field goals made, attempts and percentage. However, Bosh still averaged a respectable 18.7 points and 8.3 rebounds and finished as the 16th highest scoring forward, in terms of Fantasy points in all Head-to-Head formats least season. His status as a high-end No.1 forward might have been tarnished but many are expecting somewhat of a bounce-back season from the six-time All-Star. Bosh really seemed to find his niche in Miami's offense over the final two months in the season, averaging a combined 19.6 points and 8.8 rebounds over March and April. He told Pat Riley that he wants to bulk up some over the summer in order to get stronger near the basket as the Heat want Bosh to establish himself as more of a scoring threat in the post. While his days of averaging 20 and 10 might be over, 18 and 8 is still better than most options out there, which is why Fantasy owners shouldn't hesitate to spend an early-to-middle round pick on Bosh on Draft Day next season.
