Kurt Thomas is getting more burn with Andrew Bogut out, but there are better Fantasy options. On Monday evening, I joined Tom and Tamer of RotoExperts.com on their basketball podcast.

Have you seen what’s going on in San Antonio with the perennial contender Spurs? Thursday night the Spurs dropped their third straight game to slip to 4-6 – the first time they’ve had a losing record through 10 games since 1996. But stranger yet, it was Utah that walked into the AT&T Center and emerged victorious, the first win for the Jazz in San Antonio in a decade – snapping a run of 20 straight losses.
