BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues
OWNED IN: 7% on Yahoo
ANALYSIS:
With Blake Griffin joining Danilo Gallinari on the bench, there is a lot of scoring opportunity to be had on the Clippers. Sam Dekker is a likely candidate to get extra minutes as the Clippers will need players to stretch the floor.
Austin Rivers and Jawun Evans will get most the ball handling responsibilities, but the Clippers are in desperate need of scoring. Sam Dekker will likely see his playing time jump to the 17-18-minute mark, up from 9.5 mpg currently. However, there are going to be growing pains as he has not shown the ability to efficiently shoot the three ball. He’s sporting a 45% eFG%, among the worst in the league. He was better on the Rockets playing alongside James Harden, but Rivers and Evans will not provide the same kind of opportunities.
Outside of scoring, he’s an average rebounder playing alongside Deandre Jordan who is a vacuum cleaner on the boards. Dekker is a borderline streaming candidate against weak perimeter defenses.
