Gerald Henderson is averaging 33 minutes per game in his four games since the All-Star break.
Analysis: With his increased playing time Henderson is putting up some solid numbers. He is averaging 16.25 PPG and 6.25 RPG since the All-Star break. For the month of February Henderson is averaging 15.2 PPG, 5.1 RPG, 0.9 SPG and is shooting 82% from the stripe in over 30 minutes per game. For a shooting guard his five plus boards per game this month really is a strength considering he’s only hitting 0.5 threes per game this season.
Henderson makes a solid deep league addition as he is available in 40-60% of fantasy leagues. His field goal percentage is pedestrian but as a shooting guard he’s only going to hurt you a bit in the three point department. Henderson is a two guard but he does have small forward position eligibility in most leagues which is always a bonus. At the moment he is a better fantasy option than more heavily owned guys like Ray Allen and Kyle Korver.
Up next for Gerald is the Clippers Tuesday night followed by the Jazz on Friday.
