Is It Time To Cut Maggette?

Corey Maggette is owned in the majority of fantasy basketball leagues but if you are not in a deep league should you still keep him on your squad?

Analysis: At this point it’s safe to say Corey Maggette is only contributing in the points category and barely anything else. Just about all small forwards contribute in points so it’s nothing special. He has one combined steal and block over his last eight games. In his last four games he isn’t even averaging twenty minutes a game. To further add insult to injury Maggette isn’t even knocking down a half of a three a game nor is he shooting 45% from the field on the year. In short, he’s not giving you much of anything at this point so it’s time to reassess the needs of your fantasy squad to make a decision if keeping him is in your best interest.

Projection: 13 PPG, at most 4 RPG and a solid free throw percentage is all you’re really going to get from Corey Maggette going forward. He’s not hitting threes and he is not racking up the steals. Small forward is a deep position in fantasy basketball so cutting Maggette for category need may be in order.
