44 MIN, 18 PTS, 5-12 FG, 3-4 FT, 5 3PM, 3 REB, 7 AST, 1 STL, 1 TO

He’s increased his assists of late, but what’s been even more impressive is the 19.3 points and 4.7 three-pointers he’s averaged over his past three games.

Taj Gibson, Chicago Bulls
29 MIN, 12 PTS, 6-11 FG, 10 REB, 1 STL, 2 BLK

Jerryd Bayless, Portland Trail Blazers
29 MIN, 29 PTS, 9-15 FG, 9-12 FT, 2 3PM, 3 REB, 4 AST, 2 TO

Huge outburst, but the signs are starting to show. Aside from all the injuries, his scoring has increased the past three games from 9 to 14 to 29. His minutes follow the same path 18 to 24 to 29. Given the Blazers injury list, he’s worth adding to you roster.
