BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues

ANALYSIS: Jodie Meeks is an extremely short-term add with Evan Fournier sitting out due to a bruised heel. In a prior five-game run with Fournier sidelined, Meeks averaged 13.4 points, 2.8 threes and 1.2 steals, all while hitting half his shots and all of his free throws. In two more starts now that Fournier's out again, he's been slightly cooler as a scorer, with only 11.5 points and 2.0 treys per game on .412 shooting, despite playing many more minutes per game. He did rack up an uncharacteristic 10 assists in those two starts, though.
Meeks plays best as an efficient source of steals, treys and scoring. His best fit is with an assists-punting team hungry for his strong stats. When Fournier gets over his heel issue, which may take a week or two, Meeks's value should plummet again, but he's still a tremendous short term quick-fix in standard leagues in the meantime.
