? Wednesday's most added players:
Rodrigue Beaubois - Beaubois' numbers are up lately (29 minutes, 14.3 points, 1.5 threes, 3.3 assists, 1.8 steals over the past four) and the matchups look great over the rest of the current week (Thu MIN, Sat @UTA, Sun @PHO).
Marco Belinelli - Ditto for Marco. He's averaged 14.7 points on 49-percent shooting and 2.7 threes in 31 minutes over the past seven games, and fantasy owners will get three more games this week from a Wednesday add (Thu @UTA, Fri @PHO, Sun @LAL).
Peja Stojakovic - Need some threes? Take a chance on Peja staying active and doing something over the rest of the week (Thu MIN, Sat @UTA, Sun @PHO).
Anthony Randolph - It's looking that Randolph will get at least two starts (Thu @DAL, Fri @OKC) in place of the injured Kevin Love. In three games where he's seen at least 20 minutes of playing time with the T-Wolves, Randolph has averaged 15 points on 59-percent shooting, 63-percent foul shooting, 5.3 boards, 2.3 assists, 2.7 turnovers, 0.7 steals, and 0.7 blocks. There's potential for good (boards, blocks) and bad (percentages, turnovers) here.
Darko Milicic - Darko figures to see his responsibilities increase with Love out, but you've got to acknowledge the very low bar he's set this season when it comes to efficiency (47% FG, 54% FT, 2.3 turnovers in 25 minutes).
Luke Ridnour - Ridnour has been up and down in March, but things have averaged out just fine (12 points, 53% FG, 89% FT, 0.9 threes, 5.1 assists, 1.5 steals).
C.J. Miles - Miles' averages in nine starts on the season include 20.3 points on 47-percent shooting, 90-percent foul shooting, 2.1 threes, 5 boards, 2.4 assists, 1.1 steals, and 0.4 blocks in 35 minutes.
Tiago Splitter - Splitter is in for an increased role while Tim Duncan is out, regardless of whether he gets the starts at power forward or not. In nine games where Splitter has seen at least 20 minutes of playing time (which includes the past two games), he's averaged 11.1 points on 65-percent shooting, 7.2 boards, 1.1 steals, and 0.4 blocks in 24 minutes. You'll also want to note the 57-percent foul shooting on the season.
Trevor Ariza - Ariza has been good (6 boards, 1.6 steals, 0.4 blocks) and bad (29% FG, 60% FT) since returning from his groin injury, but you are getting three games here over the rest of the week (Thu @UTA, Fri @PHO, Sun @LAL).
Tony Allen - It's not exactly news that Allen has been tremendously productive lately.
? Wednesday's most dropped players: Trevor Booker, Rudy Gay, Tim Duncan, Jordan Crawford, Jared Dudley, Kirk Hinrich, Brandon Roy, Amir Johnson, Arron Afflalo, and Rudy Fernandez
? Wednesday status updates: Al Horford (hamstring) is expected to be active ... Andre Iguodala (knee) will play ... Stephen Jackson lasted 15 minutes in shootaround before aggravating his hamstring and looks doubtful for Wednesday (and moving forward) ... Tyreke Evans is out but is targeting Friday ... Byron Scott said Baron Davis' chances of playing Wednesday are "pretty slim" ... Amir Johnson (ankle) will be a game-time decision ... Devin Harris (hamstring) is a game-time decision ... Josh McRoberts (back) is questionable.
? Other status updates: Kevin Love (groin) is out for at least the next two games ... Deron Williams (wrist) will meet the Nets in Orlando and establish his availability for the weekend back-to-back at that point (Fri @ORL, Sat @ATL) ... Chase Budinger (ankle) might play Sunday, but Tuesday "for sure" ... Michael Redd practiced for the first time on Tuesday and is targeting Friday or Saturday for a potential return to the active roster. Don't be expecting much in terms of production.
