Beast of the Night: Gerald Wallace finished with 29 Pts, 12 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals, 4 blocks and 4 turnovers. He shot 56 percent (10-18) from the floor, 83 percent (5-6) from the line and hit 4 threes. He seems over his headache.

Notable lines:
Elton Brand – 7-13 FG (54%), 4-6 FT (67%), 18 Pts, 12 Reb, 1 Ast, 1 Stl, 3 Blk, 2 TO

Troy Murphy – 9-17 FG (53%), 4-4 FT (100%), 2 3ptm, 24 Pts, 18 Reb, 2 Ast

Beast of the Night: Kobe Bryant was a stud last night, finishing with 27 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks and 2 turnovers. He hit 1 three and shot 53 percent (10-19) from the floor and 75 percent (6-8) from the line. Kobe’s offensive load has lightened since Pau Gasol‘s return, but he remains an elite fantasy force.

Notable lines:
Brandon Roy – 11-21 FG (52%), 6-10 FT (60%), 1 3ptm, 29 Pts, 7 Reb, 5 Ast, 1 TO

Allen Iverson – 3-10 FG (30%), 5-6 FT (83%), 11 Pts, 3 Ast, 2 Stl, 1 Blk, 6 TO

Rodney Stuckey – 10-19 FG (53%), 7-7 FT (100%), 27 Pts, 5 Reb, 8 Ast, 1 Stl, 2 TO (continue reading…)

Weekend Wonder: Chris Paul returned early from an ankle injury on Friday and dropped 16 points, 6 boards, 15 dimes, 8 steals and 1 block. He hit 46 percent (6-13) of his shots, all of his three free throws and chipped in a three-pointer. What rust?

Notable lines:
Chris Bosh (12/4) – 13-25 FG (52%), 5-8 FT (63%), 31 Pts, 16 Reb, 4 Ast, 2 Blk, 2 TO

Curry is one of a handful of Warriors that has a chance at shouldering a bigger load in Oakland now that Stephen Jackson is gone. (Getty Images/Christian Petersen)

With Stephen Jackson out of Oakland, fantasy owners are probably itching to find out which Golden State Warrior will pick up most of the slack. With Nellie in charge, the answer might be “nobody,” but let’s try to be optimistic.

Raja Bell might opt to have surgery on his bum wrist and Vladimir Radmanovic shouldn’t pose too much of a threat to the current roster, which should leave the door open for one of the five Warriors below to play more minutes and step up their production.

Beast of the Night: Danny Granger shot 50 percent (12-24) from the field and 100 percent (5-5) from the line as he put up 31 points, 2 threes, 16 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks and 4 turnovers. His heel is still worrisome, but he’s a fantasy stud when he’s playing.

Notable lines:
Anthony Randolph – 8-20 FG (40%), 1-2 FT (50%), 17 Pts, 13 Reb, 1 Ast, 3 Stl, 2 Blk

Channing Frye – 4-9 FG (44%), 2-2 FT (100%), 3 3ptm, 13 Pts, 6 Reb, 5 Ast, 1 Stl, 3 Blk

Paul Millsap – 3-8 FG (38%), 3-4 FT (75%), 9 Pts, 13 Reb, 1 Stl, 1 TO (continue reading…)
