I'm headed towards the playoffs of my NBA fantasy head to head league and have the opportunity to pick up Yogi Ferrell, Seth Currey or Tim Hardaway Jr.

I'm leaning towards Tim Hardaway Jr because his numbers have been very good as a starter and he's less risky than Yogi Ferrell - who's been lightening in a bottle, but Deron Williams is due to return soon.

I also will get restricted FA rights on whoever I pick for next year's season.

Anybody with any insight/thoughts into the situation?  Much appreciated and TPs for any responses.

I would go Hardaway. Dallas has the potential to have a ton of guards between curry, ferrell, deron williams and barrea coming along after the all star break (plus matthews). If pushing for the playoffs the young guys could get benched.

Thank you.  That's where I'm leaning too.  TP

Tough pick.
I would definitely discard Yogi given that Deron Williams is about to return. That leaves us with Seth Curry and Tim Hardaway. The reason as to why the choice is difficult is because Curry and Hardaway have been playing equally well so far. It should however be noted that Seth is shooting the ball better than Hardaway.

However, bear in mind that there are plenty of guards on the Dallas roster, why Seth possibly could lose some playing time once Deron returns from injury. For this reason I would go for Hardaway.
Jack of all trades, master of none.

Yogi will be useless once Deron returns and even more useless when Barea returns.

Hardaway will be useless once Thefalosha returns, both very very short term options.

Make sure Middleton isn't on waivers hes coming back tonight

Thanks for the feedback.  In our league, FG% is not a scoring category.  TP.  I'm feeling pretty good about Hardaway.  And, I loved his dad.  Professor Hardaway, so can't go wrong.

Thanks for pointing out Thefalosha's injury - didn't know about that.  Now it's more of a toss-up.  TP
