Brandon Rush Injured, Harrison Barnes and Jarrett Jack Could See Increased Value
Nov 3, 2012 Small Forward Updates
Brandon Rush suffered a pretty serious looking knee injury and will get an MRI to determine the extent of the damage. He could miss extended time.
Fantasy Analysis: If Rush is out you’ll definitely want to grab Harrison Barnes, especially if you are in any kind of keeper league. Barnes will start at SF and be backed up by Richard Jefferson.
The other player who could see a bump up in value is Jarrett Jack. The Warriors could decide to go with a three guard set with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Jack. Even if they stick with Curry, Thompson and Barnes, there should still be starters minutes for Jack backing up both guard spots.
