Gerald Henderson a ‘Wise’ Fantasy Prospect Thursday Night

When it comes to the Hornets-Raptors game Thursday night, Kemba Walker really stands out against a Toronto team that has allowed their opponents to score an average of 101.6 points per game.  The problem with Kemba is that he’s priced too high ($9000 or above) and will have to deal with a formidable Kyle Lowry.

A better option perhaps would be Gerald Henderson as his price still remains favorable ($4900 to $5300) and he should certainly get minutes with two important Hornets players sidelined.  At this price, he only needs 25 Fantasy points to make value and we here at Gambling911.com are pretty confident he will have little problem hitting that number.

Toronto has allowed the 8th most Fantasy points to opposing shooting guards over the last 10 games in which they’ve played. 

The line on this game was -12 for all you bettors out there and Charlotte has won the last four in this series.

Update: Henderson was amazing Thursday night and a dream for Fantasy owners.  He scored 31 (two more points than Kemba at a much higher price).  He also had a few rebounds and three assists.

Sixers? Knicks? Who Can Challenge Boston in the East this Season?

As the new NBA season gets underway, there is most certainly a sense that the Boston Celtics are the team to beat once again. The 18-time champions really took an “if it’s not broken, don’t try to fix it” policy in the offseason, and it’s hard to argue with the tactic.
