On The Rise- Carl Landry

Power Forward Carl Landry continues to quietly produce in his first full season with the Hornets.

Analysis: Carl Landry is averaging sixteen points and eight boards per game through four games this season. He’s getting twenty-nine minutes per game which makes him one very valuable power forward in the fantasy world.

Landry is as efficient as they come, he shoots 77% from the stripe for his career, not bad for a power forward. Landry also shoots over fifty percent from the floor for his career and his rebounding over the last few years has improved. He’s not going to light up the stat sheet in other areas but he won’t hurt you as a power forward. His blocks and steals are adequate but they can be a solid area for him if his minutes continue to stay in the thirty range.

Outside of Eric Gordon the Hornets do not have much in terms of offensive threats and Carl Landry appears to be the second option at the moment. Landry is available in fifty percent of fantasy leagues but he is on the rise and going fast.
