Fantasy Basketball: Eric Bledsoe Short-term Fix
.
.
With Baron Davis dealing with a knee issue and Randy Foye out with a hamstring issue, rookie Eric Bledsoe is getting the chance to showcase his skills. The 18th pick of the 2010 draft out of Kentucky is not letting the opportunity pass him by.
.
In his first start Bledsoe scored nine points, grabbed five boards, handed out three assists, had four steals, and two blocks. He followed that performance up by scoring 17 points on 7 of 10 shooting with four rebounds, eight assists, and two blocks.
.
He plays back-to-back games on Friday and Saturday in Denver and in Utah. If you’re in a daily league and need a boost in assists for the remainder of the week, Bledsoe is a nice choice. If he continues to produce, perhaps he’ll remain a key piece in the rotation even when the veterans get healthy.
