Fantasy Analysis
Haslem had really been struggling to knock down shots this season as he entered Tuesday night's contest shooting 40 percent from the field, which is well below his career average of 49.7 percent. However, the 31-year-old has seemed to find his range over the last few days, as he has made eight of his last 12 field-goal attempts. Hopefully Haslem will be able to get himself going over the next few weeks and start contributing the way he has in seasons past. Consider him a low-end option in most formats in the meantime.

Udonis Haslem's 2010-11 campaign lasted just 13 games because of a foot injury he suffered back in November. However, he did offer Fantasy owners a small glimpse of what to expect playing alongside the likes of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. Haslem, who has been accustomed to starting over his career, was used off the bench last season and averaged 8.0 points and 8.2 rebounds while seeing 26.5 minutes per contest. No real surprise there, as Fantasy owners should be used to Haslem's relatively unchanged production over the past few seasons. Even if he finds himself in a starting role next year, Haslem will be good for around 10 points per game with around 8-9 boards and will likely see around 25-30 minutes per night. He will once again be counted on to be the team's workhorse on the glass and may even get a shot at center from time-to-time. Haslem is expected to be fully recovered from his foot injury and can be considered a quality low-end reserve option to be used as needed throughout the season. Consider the 31-year-old worthy of a late-round pick in most formats on Draft Day. (Updated 8/23/11)
