Jeff Teague

Jeff Teague (Hawks) -- 2012 Playoff Averages: 18.7 ppg. 3.7 apg. 5 rpg.

Not really much a surprise anymore, but Teague is a valuable pick if still on the board after picking your stars. Teague has been the true motor for the Atlanta offense, scoring a combined total of 56 points and 11 assists in his first three playoff games of the series. He's been more aggressive in Atlanta's last two games against Boston and should be able to give your some good numbers as a mid-to-late draft pick.

Richard Hamilton (SG/Bulls)

The cagey veteran has been given an ample load of playing time with Derrick Rose being sidelined for the last couple of weeks. Upon Rose’s return, it appears Hamilton is smoothly transitioning well into Chicago’s balanced offensive attack. While Richard won’t bring home those much-needed three- pointers, he’s an efficient mid-range killer in the league that still has plenty left in the tank heading into the post season.

NCAA Bracket

College basketball fans – and those rooting for their college basketball tournament bracket picks to do well – get excited if their team is one of the Sweet Sixteen basketball teams in that year. Making the Elite Eight is even more exciting. And the height of thrills comes when one of their teams is down to the Final Four. So what do these terms mean when it comes to NCAA Division 1 men's college basketball? And why are they important?

Here's a look. There are 68 teams who make the college basketball tournament each year. Of those teams, four are eliminated in the first round. In the second round, also known as the Round of 64 (this is what most fantasy college basketball tournament brackets cover), 32 teams are eliminated. The third round is also known as the rather boring and prosaic of Round of 32. In that round of the tournament, 16 teams get knocked out in sixteen games.

Kevin Love

Quality centers and power forwards aren't always easy to come by in some drafts. Most are already obvious, but it's important to keep in mind how they will pair alongside your other players. Here's a list pointing out how they've been doing in this shortened season.

No-Brainer Pick ups

Jeremy Lin Celebrating

It's Lin-sanity. New York Knicks player Jeremy Lin has been getting a lot of attention as of late, and he could potentially be one of the top fantasy basketball sleepers out there. Up until recently, the Jeremy Lin basketball career has been more noteworthy for the player being Asian-American, and for him having attended Harvard University, than for him being a great basketball player.

However, due to injuries on the Knicks team, Lin has gotten to start for the Knicks recently after being picked up off waivers at the end of December. Jeremy Lin wasn't exactly a highly-touted star; he's currently sleeping on his brother's couch while playing in New York, which is hardly the norm for NBA stars.
