BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 40% of leagues
ANALYSIS: That Paul Millsap is more cooked than not, we all know. With that out of the way, though, Millsap is still a starter for this Nuggets squad, is logging 23.9 MPG this season, using a reasonably healthy 18.3 percent of offensive possessions, and averaging 20+ FP per game while putting up an above-average mark of 1.07 FP/min. Not bad for a washed-up guy, am I right?

Go Premium, Win More!Millsap is definitely not going to be used often on offensive plays because there are some certain Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray playing for his team. Even then, though, and looking just at the last week of games, Millsap has scored 10 PPG (between 9 and 12 every game) including 1+ trey made in all of them (2 in each of the last three) to go with 4.5 RPG and 1.8 SPG. Millsap has also contributed five combined dimes and three combined blocks in that span, going back to Jan. 9th.
The fact that Michael Porter Jr. will be back soon is going to affect Millsap numbers for the bad, and that's why I ultimately labeled Millsap a 14-Team target rather than a 12-Team-or-shallower one. Even then, Millsap was already averaging a nice 12-4-1 line while sharing the floor with MPJ, so it's not that his return is super concerning. Not the worst of additions if you need a steady stream of points, rebounds, and shooting percentages (53.3 FG%) with minimal turnovers (1.3 per game).
