Deep League Assists- Beno Udrih

Beno Udrih isn’t really on anyone’s radar at the moment but he should be.

Analysis: Beno Udrih has at least five assists in five of his last six games. He’s averaging 6.6 assists per game and 1.16 steals per game in that six game span. For a point guard/shooting guard that is available in ninety-nine percent of fantasy leagues… those are some solid numbers. Udrih is only averaging 18.7 minutes per game this year but over the past two weeks he has been getting about twenty-four minutes per night. Udrih is also a career 83% free throw shooter but he doesn’t get to the stripe often enough to really be a huge value there.

On the negative side, Udrih doesn’t rebound the ball well for a guard nor does he take a lot of threes. Obviously with a guy available in just about every league you really cannot be too picky about what he can’t do. What he has been doing well can be found in the assists department. It’s hard to ignore 6.6 assists per game over his last six contests. His minutes are up and he just may be worth a look in deep leagues.
