Hill's season ends on bench: Suns forward Grant Hill was unable to play on Thursday against the Spurs, potentially meaning the end of his career in Phoenix, as he is a free agent at the end of the season. At 39, retirement is also a possibility for the 17-year veteran. (Updated 04/26/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
Hills string of luck with health and injuries came to an end this season, as a right knee injury cost him 17 games, and the seemingly-ageless Hill also took a step back when he as on the court. Hill posted the lowest shooting percentage of his career in a full season, while also posting his lowest rebound (3.5) and scoring (10.2) averages of his career. It will be interesting to see whether he tries for one more season in the NBA, however if he returns, he is unlikely to be worth more than a late-round Fantasy selection next season on Draft Day.

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)
