Where’s the Love?

It’s by no means definitive and don’t set your 2007 draft to it. But how about a sugary-sweet topic in honor of the first summer like day in the Northeast. Here’s my top 10 list for the most underrated fantasy players in the NBA right now. It’s a mix of young guns with some vets thrown in, but their all worth keeping an eye on for next season.

Name (2007 rank in parenthesis)
1. Leandro Barbosa (38)
2. David Lee (62)
3. Tyson Chandler (70)
4. Josh Howard (39)
5. Ruben Patterson (79)
6. Anthony Parker (80)
7. Danny Granger (90)
8. Monta Ellis (56)
9. Earl Boykins (86)
10. Charlie Bell (95)

I’d actually place Leandro Barbosa way ahead of everyone on this list. A few months from now, this list might look silly as Barbosa is getting some deserved love during the playoffs. But he was left off the 2006 GMTR mock draft and, compared to the other 4th round talent, he got little attention during the regular season. I mean, 38? Josh Howard finished the season ranked one spot below Barbosa and he’s already started to get some prime TrueHoop real estate. Backup or no, Barbosa is that damn good.
