If Nicolas Batum's first game back from injury showcased all that we wished to see, his second game showcased all of which we'd like to forget. After a very solid outing versus the Cavaliers, Batum only managed to put up nine points to go along with three assists and three rebounds in 27 minutes of playing time against the Bulls on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Much as has been discussed before, Nicolas Batum is simply in a wait and see phase at the moment. We know that the talent is there, but sometimes coming off of an injury can take some time to shake off the dust. With this in mind, Batum should be owned in all formats but possibly avoided in DFS until we are able to see some consistency as he works his way back from injury.
