With injuries, lineup changes and other roster moves affecting playing time, it is important to keep your fantasy lineup up-to-date. Here are some under-the-radar players to take a look at to fill in the final spots on your team, as well as some who no longer warrant ownership.

Take a look at…

Kelly Olynyk (PF/C - Bos) – 28.7% owned: Olynyk has been the definition of peaks and valleys for his owners this season. He has struggled with consistency and playing time since being benched earlier in the season but he still remains valuable to owners as a big man who can knock down threes. With Jeff Green now gone, there aren’t many offensive options remaining on the Celtics aside from Olynyk. He may still come off the bench for now, but Olynyk will play a more important role for Boston going forward.

Jusuf Nurkic (C - Den) – 22.7% owned: Now the starter in Denver after Timofey Mozgov was shipped to Cleveland, Nurkic’s upside should benefit his owners. While the sample size of two games is small, Nurkic looks to be an important part of a re-building Nuggets team that could see more veteran pieces moved out around the trade deadline. He is able to provide multiple blocks on a nightly basis, averaging 3.4 in his last five games, while remaining a double-double threat. His foul troubles are a problem, as he has picked up five-plus fouls in less than 22 minutes in five games this year. J.J. Hickson has been lurking off the bench, but Nurkic is the better option for now. 

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (SF - Cha) – 24.6% owned: Both Kidd-Gilchrist and Gerald Henderson have benefitted from the injuries of Lance Stephenson and Al Jefferson. While Kidd-Gilchrist shouldn’t be relied upon as a source of offence, he has scored in double digits in seven of his last eight games with a very good percentage. He won’t provide owners with much else aside from his rebounding ability, but those looking for boards from unlikely sources should snatch up the former second-overall pick.

Hassan Whiteside (C - Mia) – 17.7% owned: He has been a revelation for the Heat as a big man off the bench and owners should enjoy riding Whiteside while he’s hot. Over his last five contests, Whiteside is averaging 12.8 points, 9.4 rebounds and 3.2 blocks while shooting a ridiculous .725%. For a thin Miami frontcourt, Whiteside could continue to put up decent numbers. Until he comes back down to earth, he could be worth a look.<

Maybe say goodbye to…

Tristan Thompson (PF/C - Cle) – 42.8% owned: Thompson was a nice pickup for owners following the season-ending injury to Anderson Varejao but can now be dropped following the trade for Timofey Mozgov, who supplanted Thompson in the starting lineup in only his second game with the team. With the pending return of LeBron James and the stronger play of Kevin Love, don’t be surprised to see Thompson’s minutes decrease even further. He’s no longer worth owning.

Jose Calderon (PG - NYK) – 24.9% owned: There aren’t many starting point guards available in Fantasy but Calderon should only be owned as a last resort. Once a reliable contributor for assists and field goal percentage, Calderon has struggled in both categories on an awful Knicks team. Despite the absence of many big names due to the injury bug, Calderon has not picked up the slack offensively. If it means anything to owners, he can still hit threes and has yet to miss a free-throw this season, but other than that it is tough to be attached to him.

Harrison Barnes (SF – GSW) – 30.8% owned: By not being a focal point of the Warriors’ offence, Barnes has found himself with the inability to string together any amount of consistency. He has scored anywhere from two to 23 points over his last ten games, and his single digit outputs aren’t going to cut it for owners. He does provide decent rebounding for his position to go along with three-pointers and shooting percentage but owners can’t rely on him.

Lance Stephenson (SG/SF - Cha) – 49.8% owned: The status of his pelvic injury seems to be improving but he remains day-to-day without a real timetable to return. His tantalizing ability to provide a balanced box score had been beneficial to owners but Stephenson hurt them with his poor field goal percentage. With the Hornets rolling, it remains to be seen what his role will be once he returns to the team. Those needing to free up a roster spot could drop Stephenson until more definitive updates on his return are available.
