Since this is the last Focus of the season, I thought I would leave you with a number of players that could help you if you're still alive in your fantasy league playoffs. Portland's Channing Frye – With Joel Przybilla injured, Frye has recorded double-doubles in each of the last two games. He had a 15-point, 14-rebound double-double against the Kings. Before that, he posted 22 points and 11 rebounds against the Lakers. Clippers' Al Thornton – It seems Elton Brand’s return to the Clippers has affected Thornton’s numbers. After struggling for three games, Thornton has delivered back-to-back double-double performances. He recorded 22 points and 10 rebounds against the Lakers on Thursday. He followed that showing with 25 points and 11 rebounds against the Warriors last night. Thornton logged 40-plus minutes in the last two games and will likely see similar minutes in the Clippers' final two contests. Chicago’s Tyrus Thomas – It’s hard to overlook his 20-point, 14-rebound, three-block performance against Cleveland. He had 10 points, six rebounds, two steals and five blocks in the previous game at Orlando. Sacramento's Francisco Garcia – He’s scored in double-figures in each of the last three games, beginning with a 31-point outburst against the Warriors. Garcia has tallied 16 points in each of the last two games. In the last three games, he’s hit two 3-pointers in each contest, totaled eight steals and blocked four shots. Milwaukee's Ramon Sessions - With Mo Williams out, Sessions has stepped in and been handing out assists at a frantic pace. In the last five games, Sessions has averaged 10.8 assists per game. He followed up a career-high 14 assists against Boston with 13 last night against New Jersey. Charlotte's Nazr Mohammed – He didn’t start against the Pacers last night, but he was productive – 16 points, 13 rebounds, one steal and two blocks in 26 minutes. Philadelphia's Thaddeus Young – The rookie tallied 15 points, seven rebounds, one assist and one block versus Washington after dropping 21 points on Indiana the previous night. He’s shooting 59 percent from the field in the last two contests. |
The Lakers, Mavericks, Nuggets and Supersonics each have just one game this week. The rest of the Association has two games to complete the 2007-08 regular season. There are several games with playoff seeding implications. The outcomes of Utah’s games – Houston on Monday and San Antonio on Wednesday (ESPN) – will have an impact on the seedings in the West. Meanwhile in the East, the Hawks’ magic number is one with two games to go. They will need to defeat Orlando on Tuesday or Miami on Wednesday to win a first-round matchup with the Celtics. The Kings final two regular season games could determine the top seeds in the West as they host the Spurs on Monday and visit the Lakers on Tuesday. Thank you for your readership all season. Good luck in your Fantasy League Playoffs! |
