Landry Fields scored 18 points with 5 steals and 5 rebounds Tuesday night against the Detroit Pistons.
Analysis: Landry Fields now has three eighteen point games in his last six contests. The shooting guard is also impressing in other fantasy areas as well. Fields has at least one steal in each of his last eight games with a total of fifteen steals in that eight game span. Fields has also hit seven threes and has averaged 4.8 rebounds in his last five games. This guy is on fire right now and he is available in about eighty percent of fantasy leagues.
The most important factor in his production has been his floor time. Fields has played at least thirty minutes per game in nine of his last ten contests. If he can get twenty-five plus minutes per game for the rest of the year he will provide a boost to any fantasy squad. Fields also chips in with assists as well, he’s averaging 3.0 assists per game on the year. His biggest weakness is his free throw percentage of 64%, that’s awful for a fantasy shooting guard. Regardless, he remains a hot commodity right now and is worth a look.
