Standard Leagues

(<50% rostered on Yahoo)

Christian Braun, SG/SF, DEN (34% rostered)

Tonight: 40 minutes (6-of-11 FG, 4-of-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one triple, one steal, one block.

Analysis: Braun has scored in double digits in each of his first three games, averaging 14 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.7 blocks, and 1.3 steals over that span. The Kansas product is breaking out before our eyes, so make sure you grab the 23-year-old before your league mates do!

Bilal Coulibaly, SG/SF, WAS (26% rostered)

Tonight: 38 minutes, 14 points (6-of-18 FG, 2-of-3 FT), eight rebounds, two steals.

Analysis: Oubre continues to earn his spot on this list, and for good reason. In the first three games of the season, the 28-year-old is averaging 21.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.3 three-pointers, and 1.3 steals over an impressive 35.7 minutes per game. The Kansas product is likely to keep putting up significant shot attempts as long as Paul George (knee) remains sidelined.
