New York Knicks rookie bigman Josh Harrellson got the start on Saturday night and was really impressive as the Knicks defeated the Sacramento Kings. He had 14 points and 12 rebounds, while nailing 4-of-8 from downtown. In the fantasy basketball world, those stats look like gold for a player available on the waiver wire.
That said, you should know that Josh Harrellson was only starting due to an injury to Amare Stoudemire. And since Amare Stoudemire’s injury isn’t believed to be serious, Josh Harrellson’s time in the starting lineup will be short.
Is Josh Harrellson worth a roster spot on your fantasy basketball team? If you can afford to grab him and hold him with the hope that he’ll play big minutes, go ahead and sign him. Josh Harrellson plays behind a pair of injury prone players in Amare Stoudemire and Tyson Chandler. It could be simply a matter of time before he finds himself in the starting lineup again.
And like we saw tonight, Josh Harrellson can produce when given minutes.
