2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Rankings: Shooting Guards 1-20 | SGs 21-40
-
Caron Butler, Mavericks
He rebounds the ball better than the other shooting guards ranked in this area but does not hold the three point ability that most two guards do. His numbers will remain average on a crowded Mavs roster loaded with offensive weapons.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 15.5 ppg, 2.0 apg, 5.0 rpg, 1.50 spg, 55 3PTM, 43.5 FG%, 83.0 FT%
-
Jamal Crawford, Hawks
The reigning NBA Sixth Man of the Year embraced his role with the Hawks last season and turned that into a solid season. He is in a contract year and there have been rumblings about Crawford being unhappy about a lack of an extension. However, he still should be a solid scorer in fantasy.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 18.5 ppg, 3.5 apg, 2.5 rpg, 0.75 spg, 155 3PTM, 43.5 FG%, 85.0 FT%
-
Evan Turner, 76ers
Turner was one of the most versatile, all-around players in college basketball last season. He can do a little bit of everything on the floor and should not change at the next level. He will likely begin the season coming off the bench but could easily make his way into the starting line-up by the end of the year.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 15.0 ppg, 4.0 apg, 4.5 rpg, 1.25 spg, 35 3PTM, 45.5 FG%, 74.5 FT%
-
Richard Hamilton, Pistons
Injury limited Rip to 46 games last season. It is still unseen how Ben Gordon’s presence in Detroit will effect Hamilton’s minutes but I imagine the numbers will slide this season. Here is a bold prediction: Hamilton will not end the season a Piston.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 16.5 ppg, 2.5 apg, 3.5 rpg, 0.50 spg, 75 3PTM, 43.5 FG%, 84.5 FT%
-
J.R. Smith, Nuggets
His attitude has kept him out of the starting line-up, but Smith has developed into one of the better bench scorers in the league. He might reap the most benefits from �Melo’s eventual trade as Denver will need some more scoring.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 16.5 ppg, 2.5 apg, 3.5 rpg, 1.25 spg, 160 3PTM, 43.0 FG%, 72.0 FT%
-
Anthony Morrow, Nets
Morrow knows how to score the basketball and it appears he will get the nod in the Nets’ starting line-up at the two. While the Nets should be improved, they still do not have a lot of scorers so Morrow will get his looks.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 14.5 ppg, 1.5 apg, 3.5 rpg, 1.00 spg, 125 3PTM, 47.0 FG%, 88.0 FT%
-
Leandro Barbosa, Raptors
Limited to 44 games due to injury, Barbosa was a major fantasy disappoint. Granted with a new start in Toronto, he should see plenty of opportunity to contribute on what is expected to be a pretty awful team.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 15.0 ppg, 2.0 apg, 2.5 rpg, 1.00 spg, 95 3PTM, 46.5 FG%, 86.5 FT%
-
Kyle Korver, Bulls
If it is late in your draft and you need a three-point guy, Korver would be a great option. I think he will get more minutes in Chicago and should benefit from Derrick Rose’s drive and kick ability.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 12.0 ppg, 2.0 apg, 3.0 rpg, 0.50 spg, 135 3PTM, 43.5 FG%, 82.0 FT%
-
Corey Brewer, Timberwolves
After playing in just 15 games two seasons ago, Brewer bounced back to have a solid 2009-10 campaign. Minnesota does not have a true go-to scorer so there will be opportunity for the former Gator.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 14.0 ppg, 2.5 apg, 4.0 rpg, 1.50 spg, 90 3PTM, 42.5 FG%, 71.0 FT%
-
Mike Miller, Heat
Miller’s job will be to stand at the three point line and wait for LeBron or Wade to drive, collapse the D, and have the ball kicked out to him for an open three. He will be Miami’s best scoring option off the bench but will not be counted on too heavily.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 10.5 ppg, 3.0 apg, 5.0 rpg, 0.50 spg, 145 3PTM, 49.0 FG%, 79.0 FT%
-
Terrence Williams, Nets
It appears T-Will will start the season coming off the bench for the Nets behind Anthony Morrow. Still, he figures to log a good amount of his minutes at the three as well and his versatility makes him an intriguing late round fantasy option.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 10.5 ppg, 3.5 apg, 5.0 rpg, 1.00 spg, 45 3PTM, 42.0 FG%, 73.0 FT%
-
James Harden, Thunder
Harden is expected to back-up Thabo Sefalosha at the two but will still play around 24 minutes a night. It is expected he will be a better fantasy option in his second year but will not be anything special as a complimentary player.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 11.0 ppg, 2.5 apg, 3.5 rpg, 1.00 spg, 105 3PTM, 43.5 FG%, 82.0 FT%
-
Wesley Matthews, Blazers
Matthews made his mark in Utah as an undrafted free agent due to his defensive tenacity. From a fantasy standpoint, he is a late round option and nothing more.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 10.5 ppg, 2.5 apg, 3.5 rpg, 1.25 spg, 75 3PTM, 48.5 FG%, 85.0 FT%
-
Josh Childress, Suns
Back after a two-year stint in Greece, Childress will be part of the group effort to help replace Amare’s production.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 11.0 ppg, 2.0 apg, 5.0 rpg, 1.00 spg, 35 3PTM, 52.0 FG%, 80.0 FT%
-
DeMar DeRozan, Raptors
DeRozan is still probably a couple years away from reaching his potential. His outside shot is almost non-existent, but he should have an increased role this season on a transitioning Toronto team.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 9.5 ppg, 1.0 apg, 3.5 rpg, 1.00 spg, 10 3PTM, 51.0 FG%, 77.0 FT%
-
Ronnie Brewer, Bulls
Brewer figures to be the Bulls starter this season but he is not a great fantasy option. I would much rather take Korver even though he is coming off the bench.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 10.0 ppg, 2.5 apg, 3.5 rpg, 1.00 spg, 10 3PTM, 50.0 FG%, 71.0 FT%
-
Courtney Lee, Rockets
On his third team in three years in the league, I will be interested to see how Lee fits into the Rockets rotation. He is a solid player but will be stuck on the bench behind Kevin Martin while Houston is also not shy about playing Aaron Brooks and Kyle Lowry in the same backcourt.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 8.5 ppg, 1.5 apg, 2.5 rpg, 1.00 spg, 75 3PTM, 44.5 FG%, 84.0 FT%
-
Randy Foye, Clippers
Will probably see more minutes at the point than the two in Clipperland but I think of Foye as a shooting guard. He could be a valuable pick-up if Baron Davis gets banged up but there is no rush to actually draft him.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 9.0 ppg, 3.0 apg, 2.0 rpg, 0.75 spg, 10 3PTM, 50.0 FG%, 71.0 FT%
-
J.J. Redick, Magic
Redick really found his niche in Orlando last season and might see a little more playing time this season. From a fantasy standpoint, he will help you with your three-point total and that is about it.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 10.5 ppg, 2.0 apg, 2.0 rpg, .25 spg, 120 3PTM, 44.5 FG%, 87.0 FT%
-
Rudy Fernandez, Blazers
I will not touch him on draft night since he has been demanding a trade all off-season and is stuck behind Roy and Matthews in Portland. If he ends up getting traded to New York, his stock becomes much higher.
Projected 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Stats: 7.0 ppg, 2.0 apg, 2.5 rpg, 1.00 spg, 70 3PTM, 39.0 FG%, 85.0 FT%
