RecapJeremiah Fears recorded 25 points (10-of-14 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, five assists, two steals and three three-pointers in Sunday’s loss to the Clippers.
Fears continues to spread his wings as the Pelicans’ point guard, scoring at least 19 points in three straight games and in five of his last six appearances. What’s especially encouraging for those rostering the second-year guard is that the return of Dejounte Murray (6/3/3 in 28 minutes) has not led to a decrease in production. Fears’ current fantasy value sits just outside the top-100, but that will change if he continues to play as he has over the last week.
