Carmelo Anthony (at DET, $8,500)
For all the Melo hate that is out there, the following remains true: the offense still flows through him and the dude is consistently among the league leaders in usage rate. The Knicks superstar has improved on his rebounding numbers and may even set a career-high in assists this season. I would like to fit him in my roster for Thursday, but the price may be too high. Especially since the Beard and Brow are near auto-plays.
