ANALYSIS: Another winner from the DeMarcus Cousins deal may be backup point guard Tim Frazier. He was a smart pickup early this season while Jrue Holiday was out, but he has played sparingly since both Jrue Holiday and Tyreke Evans returned to action. Now it appears Frazier will see some time on the floor at shooting guard — as well as continuing to back up Holiday — with both Evans and Buddy Hield gone.
In his first 20 starts, Frazier averaged about 12 points and eight assists— these figures match his career per-36 averages. As a reserve, however, those numbers were cut in half. Although Frazier may still be coming off the bench, the Pelicans are razor thin at the guard position behind Holiday and E'Twaun Moore, to the point where they are trying out free agents to fill a roster spot. Even though Moore will likely start, Frazier could get more minutes, with the potential for a huge role in the even that the oft-injured Holiday goes down again. Frazier won't be worth starting in your fantasy lineup unless Holiday is out, but he could be a nice depth addition at point guard and insurance policy.
