Randy Foye may be on his fifth NBA team this year but he continues to play well despite being lost in the shuffle.
Analysis: Randy Foye is averaging 3.4 3PM, 17.6 PPG, 4.8 RPG and 3.6 APG over his last five games. He has hit a total of 17 threes in that span while averaging over 35 minutes of floor time per night.
Foye’s biggest problem as a shooting guard has always been his lack of steals and a low field goal percentage, so keep that in mind. In recent years Foye has become a good three point shooter in terms of volume and efficiency. He’s even sporting a career 85% mark from the line. Over the last week of the season Foye is outperforming Kevin Martin, Arron Afflalo and Evan Turner. Currently, Foye is available in 70-97% of fantasy leagues. If his minutes remain north of thirty per game it will be impossible to ignore him.
Jimmy Butler is another player on the rise in the wake of the Luol Deng trade. Butler shot a career high 18 times in his last game. He’s averaging 2.6 SPG, 15 PPG and 4.8 RPG over his last five games. He’s 9th in the NBA in steals and 14th among shooting guards in rebounds. Butler is available in 10-15% of fantasy leagues.
