Jaden Hardy (SG, DAL) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 23

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues

ROSTERED IN: 3% of leagues

ANALYSIS: It's been a wild couple of weeks for Jaden Hardy and the Dallas Mavericks as a whole. The TX squad is looking at the playoffs from the outside looking as through games played on Friday they are in possession of the no. 11 seed in the West, not even cracking the play-in tournament.

Hardy, for what is worth, has spent the last four games coming off the pine after starting three prior to that. And the most incredible thing is that he was absolutely unstoppable in that three-game run, which makes one wonder if Dallas would enter panic mode and give the rookie more chances.

Truth be told, Hardy has been similarly good starting and coming off the bench recently on second-unit-leading duties. He averaged a per-game 24-5-3 stat line in those three games from Mar. 11 through 15, but in his most recent three outings he's gone for an average 18-3-2 per-game line.

Yes, the numbers went down, but so did the minutes. He started three games playing an average of 39 MPG and putting up 38 FPPG... but now that he's back to the second unit he's logging 21 MPG in which he's producing a ridiculous 30 FPPG for a per-minute average of 1.40 (league average at 0.90).

With Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving manning the backcourt, Hardy is ultra-blocked from a chance at starting games. That said, he has been fantastic of late leading the bench and that should stay the same considering he's fit perfectly and that Dallas won't be trying any dumb stuff with their season on the line.
