BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues

ANALYSIS: Philadelphia is very thin at the forward position and as a result, Covington has been thrust into the starting lineup where he has taken advantage of this role. The former Tennessee State Tiger's per game over the past five have been 17 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1 block and he is currently 12th throughout the league canning 2.3 3s per game. Covington is getting over 30 minutes nearly every game since Brett Brown introduced him to the rotation and Philadelphia is slowly beginning to put it together, evident by both the number of wins and the slow creep of legitimate 76ers in the fantasy basketball world. Considering his ability to fill up the stat book in five different catagories and the amount of opportunity he will get to play, the 24-year-old Covington may prove to be the diamond within the group.
