Bogdan Bogdanovic (SG/SF/PF, ATL): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic is a worthy consideration as a fantasy basketball waiver wire pickup heading into Week 14 of the NBA season.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues

ROSTERED IN: 46% of leagues

ANALYSIS: After missing two months injured, BogBog is back in full force playing for the Hawks and he's only getting better each passing day. Thus the increase in his rostership, I guess. Bog came back at the start of March and he needed a little bit of time to ramp up his game and get his conditioning at a proper level, which translated into a couple of games below 20 minutes before the AS break and four-of-five more after that weekend. In the past week, getting back to Mar. 18, BogBog is playing his good 30 MPG and excelling at it.

Bog is putting up numbers of late: in the four games he's played through the deadline, Bogdanovic is averaging a sweet 16-3-2 line to go with a steal and half a block a day. His shooting is already supreme with BB hitting 52 percent of his total FGA (12 per game) and he's scored 5, 2, 2, and 4 treys in those four matches and at least one trey in the last six games. Not bad for someone still getting into rhythm, is it?

Bogdanovic is not starting for the Hawks and he didn't do so during the first stretch of the season in which he was healthy either, but he's a flaming weapon off the pine. Although he never logs massive usage rates (average 20% through the season), he is more than capable of spot-shooting and that's why he's valuable as hell. He won't turn the ball over, he will keep hitting treys with gusto, and comes with a little bit of rebounding/assisting upside. Can't ask for much more, although you better be fast in rostering him because he won't be available for free for too long.
