FANTASY HOOPS: RANTS & RAVES

Composite leaguers, note that three teams have two games in the week to come. You might want to avoid using all Lakers other than Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol, all Suns other than Steve Nash and Amare Stoudemire and most of the Houston Rockets. While Houston guards Kevin Martin and Aaron Brooks have the potential to occasionally go off for an awesome game, it is a bit of a risk to count on them.

Heading into Week 20, there are several injured players to keep an eye on before making lineup decisions. You can check me out on Twitter and/or come to our Weekly Hoops Help Chat Live at 6pm ET Monday for more updated player info. Beware of Corey Maggette (chronic hamstring), Rodney Stuckey (neurological), Lebron James (mild ankle sprain), Jermaine O’Neal (knee), Kenyon Martin (knee), Brendan Haywood (knee) and Marcus Camby (ankle) to potentially miss time in the week ahead.

Teams w/4 games: Boston, Charlotte, L.A. Clippers, Memphis, Miami, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Orleans, New York, Orlando, Philadelphia, Portland, Sacramento, San Antonio, Toronto, Washington
Teams w/3 games: Atlanta, Chicago, Cleveland, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Indiana, Golden State, Milwaukee, Oklahoma City
Teams w/2 two games: Houston, L.A. Lakers, Phoenix
