Is Tim Hardaway Jr. worthy of a waiver claim?
Tim Hardaway Jr. has been a rising star on the waiver wire for the month of January, going from 12% ownership to 62% as of today.
In the past 7 games, Hardaway has put up great numbers averaging 14.9 points, 2 assists, 1 steal while shooting 48.8% from the field. In terms of minutes leaders, he ranks 4th on the team with 26.6 per game.
All of his numbers are up in the past month when compared to his season averages. However, the bad news is that he is mainly just a scorer and offers little in other categories, aside from perhaps the FG% category.
Fantasy owners can ride out his hot month and then dump him back on the waiver wire when his minutes decline.
If all you care about is scoring, then he might be worth a look since he is still available in 38% of leagues.
