Foye may not be a PG for long…

Happy Christmas Eve. Here are the Xmas names you need to know…

Rodney Stuckey – Stuckey owners rejoice! 40 points on 15-24 shooting last night. The Wade comparison is back and Stuckey continues to be a breakout player this month. FYI – AI went out with an injured groin last night.

Chris Wilcox – Every once in a while Chris Wilcox will go off for a big game. Last night was one of those tease performances. Wilcox had 19 and 12 but still isn’t worth a pick up. The potential for value is and has always been there. It could easily go unrealized for his NBA career.

Marreese Speights – Speights is like the better Wilcox. I’ve preached the pick up. Last night he had 16 and 6.

Randy Foye – 26 points and 16 boards! The Foye as a PG experiment may be over. The Wolves are committing to Kevin Ollie and even Telfair (16 points – don’t do it!) as their point guards. Foye looked great but is still too inconsistent.

Paul Millsap – No double-double!!! Okay, so a board short. He did injure his knee in the game and although he came back in, he is expected to get an MRI.

Rafer Alston – A little competition never hurts… Unless you’re a fantasy owner. Rafer came back last night and looked great in H-Towns loss to Cleveland. Coincidence that Skip (20 points) after four straight nice performances (and wins) by Aaron Brooks? Brooks had decent back up numbers (10 points, 4 boards, 3 dimes) but not what he had been doing as a starter.

Joel Przybilla – 19 boards! Portland natives will tell you that they knew big Joel had this game and that he was hurt last year but 19 boards and shooting basically 75 percent from the floor? If Oden wasn’t in town, he’d be in the running for steal of the draft.

Andres Nocioni – Noce had 18 and 8 and as usual with the Argentinian, it is all about minutes. He started last night and if he continues to start and get minutes he’ll have real value. The Bulls have not shown a legit commitment to Nocioni in the past.
