Fantasy Analysis
Lee is still only averaging 3.2 assists per game over his last five and 2.1 on the year, so this isn't going to be the norm. Still, the triple-double is a nice surprise as Lee is very close to being at a double-double per game on the season for the Warriors. He's playing at a high level and can be active in all Fantasy leagues and formats. (Updated 02/08/2012).

01/28/2012 01:05 Durant, Thunder roll over Warriors
Kevin Durant had 37 points and 14 rebounds, Russell Westbrook dazzled with 28 points and 11 assists and the NBA-leading Oklahoma City Thunder started a critical road stretch with a 120-109 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Friday night.
After making 68 of his 73 starts at power forward last season, David Lee lost his center eligibility for the 2011-12 season. His scoring also dipped roughly four points per game after going from the Knicks to the Warriors as he saw his shot attempts per game decline from 15.5 to 13.4. This year, under coach Mark Jackson's more orthodox approach, the Warriors may slow things down and that could lead to a further decline in his numbers, but we do not anticipate a dramatic fall in production. After all, the team's current personnel will not lead to a very drastic change in approach in Jackson's first year as he inherited a team built to run. Expect Lee to average around 16 points and 10 rebounds per game again with healthy totals in assists and about a steal per game. He should continue to average more than 50 percent from the field and will remain a safe pick in round three or four in most Fantasy formats. (Updated 12/19/11)
