Not sure if it's a diamond in the rough as he should be pretty well-known by now, but I like Gerald Wallace to have a very productive year for the Bobcats. Teams will be forced to put bodies on Okeafor underneath. Now the Bobcats have a threat at sg with JRich, & I think that will benefit Wallace. Morrison won't be playing, so Wallace will likely have a ton of minutes all season long.Champagne for my real friends, real pain for my sham friends...

I like Brandon Roy for Portland. He will be much better this year, IMO.NCAA YTD: 2-3-2 -3.9 units.

And ATB, those guys you listed aren't "sleepers" either except Scola who is a GREAT sleeper pick. Boozer and Camby are late 2nd/early 3rd round picks, and everyone in the world knows who Durant is and he's going in the 4th round (sometimes higher in drafts).
Some REAL sleepers (7th round or later) for you are: Al Horford ATL, Rajon Rondo BOS, Walter Herrmann CHA, Tyrus Thomas CHI, Nene DEN, Jason Maxiell DET, Marco Belinelli GS, Luis Scola (love this guy) HOU, Al Thornton LAC, Darko Milicic and Rudy Gay MEM, Corey Brewer MIN, Martell Webster POR, Nick Collison SEA, Jose Calderon and Andrea Bargnani TOR, Ronnie Brewer UTAH.
With the exception of maybe Gay and Bargnani, none of these guys are getting drafted before Round 7 and they are all soild players that can really help your team.
I would particularly go after Herrmann, Thomas, and Scola if you can get them :thumbs:

I guess Gerald Wallace doesn't fit the sleeper mold, but I do think he has a big year, & may be slept on as he plays for the Cats. Also I think Bargnini will have a huge role this season in T-Dot.

I'm not sure how scoring goes for NBA fantasy (I've never done it), but I think Tyson Chandler will have a very productive season for the Hornets. He's likely going to average a double double for the season. Last season he averaged 9.5 ppg & 12.3 rpg. Great rebounder, & should get plenty of tip ins, not to mention a great guard in Chris Paul. He is also very efficient, as he shot over 62% fgs for the season.Champagne for my real friends, real pain for my sham friends...

IMO Chandler is indispensable in a rotisserie league :thumbs::hide:
