Forward Cheat Sheet

Jared Dudley (G) PHOENIX 50%- Has been very consistent and versatile at guard and forward in most leagues.

Vince Carter DALLAS 46%- Does he have anything left? Volatile selection, very high risk- average return.

Chase Budinger HOUSTON 42%- Needs to keep rookie Chandler Parsons from cutting into his minutes.

Anthony Morrow NEW JERSEY 37%- If you need three pointers, this guy is instant movement.

Gordon Hayward UTAH 25%- Was on fire for two weeks, but has slowed considerably last two games.

Wilson Chandler DENVER 25%- If his Chinese team fails to make playoffs, will return to NBA sooner than later.

Marvin Williams ATLANTA 20%- With Al Horford out for awhile, the opportunites are there for underachiever.

Carl Landry NEW ORLEANS 30%- Currently out with a sprained knee, worth jumping on when he returns.

Ersan Ilyasova MILWAUKEE 18%- Really coming on over last five games, including a pair of double-doubles.

Trevor Booker WASHINGTON 12%- With Andray Blatche down, Booker getting 40 minutes a night.

Markeiff Morris PHOENIX 9%- Coming off career game, numbers across the stat sheet including 21 points.

Derrick Favors UTAH 7%- Minutes are slowly increasing with off the chart potential.

Note: Multi-position players such as guard/forward and forward/center are duly noted and can be found on mulitple lists.
