Bryn Forbes (PG/SG, MIL): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

Bucks guard Bryn Forbes is a worthy consideration as a fantasy basketball waiver wire pickup heading into Week 20 of the NBA season.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues

ROSTERED IN: 4% of leagues

ANALYSIS: All of a sudden, Milwaukee is the second-best team in the East. Say what!? That's right, folks. Kind of, at least. The Bucks and the Nets are tied for the second spot with an equally nice 43-24 record each. But the Bucks, good for them, hold the tiebreaker over Brooklyn. There is virtually no chance the Bucks can jump above Philly (3.0 GB) but with an easy schedule ROS and the Nets facing Denver on Saturday (and most probably not risking a thing when it comes to KD/Kyrie/Harden) odds are the Bucks lock onto the no. 2 and secondary players take on a slightly heavier role. Enter über-efficient Bryn Forbes.

Don't get overly excited. Forbes was super-great in the three-game span between Apr. 27 and Apr. 30 but he's cooled down a bit since in his four games this month. No matter what, though, Forbes has been impressive for the usage rates he's logged (18%) and minutes he's played in the last seven games (24 MPG). Forbes has averaged an above-average 0.98 FP/min, almost a point per minute on the court, and he's reached 20+ FP in four of his last seven matches. We're talking a super-deep league WW target here, obviously, but quite a good one for those out there still fighting for something this upcoming week(end).

Forbes has scored at least 10 points in seven straight games. He's also scored 2+ triples in each of those matches. Forbes is keeping up a sweet 60% accuracy from the floor on a healthy 10 FGA per game. His true shooting is all the way up at 78% because he's excelling from beyond the three-point line snipping treys daily. Forbes doesn't offer much more than scoring and three-pointing, but you can't ask for much more this late in the season while finding such products available for free in most Yahoo leagues.
