Fantasy Analysis
Iguodala has seen his scoring take a bit of a hit so far this season but he is making it up in other categories. He is averaging 12 points with 6.8 rebounds, 6.4 assists and one steal in his last five contests, and is shooting 45 percent from 3-point land over that span. The 76ers score by committee but the 28-year-old is a lock for double digits on a nightly basis. Iguodala will face off against the Bobcats, Magic, Mavericks and Timberwolves in Week 8 (Feb. 13-19) so continue to roll with him as a solid option in all Fantasy formats. (Updated 02/10/2012).

There is no doubt that Iguodala is looking to bounce back after one of the more frustrating years in his NBA career. The 27-year-old is coming off a season in which he was plagued by a multitude of injuries – including a sprained wrist, sore Achilles’ and knee tendinitis – as he played a career-low 67 games. His 14.1 points per game was his lowest scoring average since his second year in the league and his rebounding was down as well. A healthy Elton Brand actually helped his assist-to-turnover ratio, however, and Iguodala was every bit as dangerous on defense. His health will be the biggest question mark, followed by how he continues to gel alongside Jrue Holiday with Brand down low. This is still A.I.’s team, however, and you can bet coach Doug Collins wants him back closer to his 2009-10 season when he put up 17.1 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.8 assists and nailed over a 3-pointer per game over a full 82-game schedule. Iguodala has always been a Rotisserie owner’s dream as he’s one of the most complete players in Fantasy. Owners might be a little down on him entering the year, but he should be taken in the earlier rounds on Draft Day as a top 20 Fantasy forward, who also happens to have guard eligibility.
