Fantasy Analysis
Hill isn't getting any younger and continues to feel the bumps for this condensed season. He's averaging 8.4 points and 3.6 assists per game over his last five outings for the Suns. Phoenix play four of its next five games on the road and also start Week 8 (Feb. 13-19) with three straight contests. Chances are he is limited in those contests or sits one out completely to stay fresh. Fantasy owners should continue to view the veteran as a low-end option in deeper leagues. (Updated 02/10/2012).

Jared Dudley had 20 points and 10 rebounds for the Phoenix Suns, who never trailed in defeating the Sacramento Kings 98-84 on Saturday night.
After several injury-plagued seasons, Grant Hill has proven to be one of the more reliable players in the NBA over the past three seasons. He has played at least 80 games in each of those campaigns and has remained more than just a token role player into his late 30s. The 38-year-old should still see about 30 minutes and 10 shots per game on most nights and can chip in scoring in the low teens to go with about four rebounds and three dimes per game. He won't be a player Fantasy owners will want to rely on a week-to-week basis, but the former NBA superstar still has enough left in the tank to be a very useful reserve to keep around and use as needed. He is well worth a late-round pick in any Fantasy format. (Updated 8/28/11)
