The Wire Troll: Bobby Portis Breaks into Bulls Rotation

The former Southeastern Conference Player of the Year, Portis is starting to make noise as a rookie trying to earn PT on a deep Bulls’ squad. His minutes remain inconsistent, so he’s likely just a deep league/dynasty option right now, but we saw his potential last Saturday when he put up 20 points, 11 boards and two steals in just 23 minutes.

The Wire Troll: Gary Neal Replaces Bradley Beal

This Australian veteran has the right Spurs mentality — sacrificing for the greater good, so you didn’t hear any moaning when injuries and team depth saw him take a back seat last season after looking like he was on the cusp of a breakout in 2013-14. This season, however, Mills is seeing more action than ever, so he needs to be on the radar of owners in deeper leagues as a solid backcourt depth option. This week, at the very least, he may make for a solid pickup in standard sized leagues, too.

The Wire Troll: John Henson Returns With a Vengeance

This season, McDermott may see time at both the three and four and he earned his first career start on Thursday. We’re starting to see his offensive skills, with back-to-back double digit scoring games earlier this week (including a five-trey show on Tuesday) and he’s being rewarded with more PT (26.5 MPG over the last two). The fact that Bulls won the game that McBuckets started bodes well for more. Grab him now.

The Wire Troll: Marvin Williams is Double-Double Trouble

Young is being very productive as a scoring threat off the Laker bench early on, averaging 15.5 points with 3.5 treys per game. Toss in three steals on Friday and he gets even more intriguing, but we’d like to see him getting closer to 25 MPG before completely going crazy here, so for now he’s only recommended in, say, 14-team or larger leagues.
