Alec BurksSG, Philadelphia SixersAlec Burks put up 16 points, five rebounds, five assists, two steals and four 3-pointers in Friday's win over the Rockets.
Burks hit the brakes after being traded to the Sixers but is looking at a steady role with Ben Simmons likely out for the year. He should be in the mix for minutes as a bench ball-handler and shot-creator, and gives the team a more dynamic presence than Raul Neto. The pair may be deployed situationally, with Neto posting 14 points, five assists and a 3-pointer in this contest. Burks has far more fantasy upside and is the superior choice in playoff leagues.
