BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 27% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Bruce Brown wasn't a big part of the Nets' plans not long ago. In fact, from the start of the season up to the end of January, Brown had just started eight of the total 18 games he had been part of, and even then he was averaging a measly 18 minutes per game. That pales in comparison to the role he's been playing during the past month, in which he's started 12 of 15 games logging 26 MPG.
In the last 10 games the Nets have played, all of them which Brown has started, the small-ball-big has played an average of 28 minutes a night while putting up averages topping a 14-5-2-1 line. It is true that Brown has benefited from Kevin Durant's battle with health and safety protocols and injury, but he's been so good as a role player and complementary piece to James Harden and Kyrie Irving that he might have found an important place in Brooklyn's rotation for the second half of the season.
Brown can't be found shooting threes in bunches, but he's still attempting north of 10 FGA per game, shooting 63 percent from the floor since Feb. 21, and hitting double-digit scoring numbers in all of his last six games. From that Feb. 21 game on, and in six matches before his last one entering the break, Brown averaged an 18-6-3 line with 1.5 steals on top and a 72 percent (!) true shooting. Points, boards, and impressive shooting percentages are Brown's mojo and what you'll get if you can still add him to your roster from your league's WW.
