Fantasy Sleepers and Busts of the Week

Luke Ridnour

Sleepers

Kemba Walker (G/CHA) -- 11.1 ppg., 3.2 apg., 3.1 rpg.

Walker is coming off a sloppy game against Chicago, but had four consecutive games in double-digits last week, scoring 23 Golden State one night. Kemba remains as a guard to stay away from unless you have a set of stud guards to accompany him.

Samuel Dalembert (C/HOU) -- 9.0 ppg., 2 bpg., 7.9 rpg.

Sammy D is coming back from an ankle injury, but has been sensational lately in Houston. Averaging a double-double nearly every night in January, Dalembert can give you some points and boards as a big guy. He's got a total of 41 points and 33 rebounds combined in his last three games.

Luke Ridnour (G/MIN) -- 12.4 ppg., 3.5 apg., 1.1 spg.

Luke Ridnour isn't a scoring guard but can certainly knock down the three ball. He's averaging 1.4 three-pointers made in each game this season, while also adding some assists along the way. Minnesota trusts Ridnour, giving him a generous share of 32 minutes per game.

Mo Williams (G/LAC) -- 13.4 ppg., 4.1 apg., 1.2 spg.

Williams is another Clipper that's returning from injury, filling in for the injured Chris Paul last week. Mo tallied 26 points against Dallas, before hanging another 25 points two days later against the Wolves. He's grabbing heavy minutes now with Chris Paul sidelined for today's game against Toronto, and questionable against the Lakers.

Busts

Carl Landry (PF/NO) -- 11.7 ppg., 1.1 apg., 4.6 rpg.

One of the Hornets' efficient players off the bench, Landry has been slipping in productivity. Carl had five consecutive games in single-digit scoring, putting up just 1 point against Portland and 2 points against Memphis. His rebounds have also dropped. He did put together 19 points in his most recent against Dallas yesterday.

Devin Harris (G/UTA) -- 8.1 ppg., 4.5 apg., 0.9 spg.

The Jazz guard has been under several trade talks recently, with his numbers take a huge dip this season. Harris had a rough night against Dallas last week, going 0-for-7 from the field and ending up with 1 point and 2 assists. In his most recent game against the Wolves yesterday, Harris put up 9 points and 3 assists.

Channing Frye (PF/PHX) -- 7.6 ppg., 6.1 rpg., 1.1 apg.

Frye is averaging 1.3 three-pointers in each game this season, but has been having terrible shooting nights throughout the past week. He's got a combined total of just 16 points in his last three games for the Suns heading into Sunday.

Tyler Hansbrough (PF/IND) -- 10.8 ppg., 5.9 rpg., 1.0 spg.

Hansbrough has a big game tonight against the tough front court of the Lakers, coming off a 4-point stinker against Golden State two nights ago. He's logging in 25 minutes per game this season and his scoring pretty well in the Pacers offense, but has been on a drought in his last three games.
