Nemanja Bjelica chips in 13 in win over Bulls

Nemanja Bjelica posted a solid effort Friday against the Bulls with 13 points on 5-of-11, going 1-of-3 from behind the arc and 2-of-2 from the free throw line. He grabbed seven rebounds, dished three assists, and recorded a block and a steal over 32 minutes.

Fantasy Impact:

Bjelica wasn't projected to be a starter when the season tipped of and he came off the bench for the King's first game, but with constant injuries to Marvin Bagley he has now started 44 of the King's last 46 games. He's been a bit of a surprise this season, putting up 12.4 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 0.4 blocks, and 0.8 steals. The timetable for Bagley's return from his most recent injury is still up in the air and Bjelica is worth a start in deep leagues as long as he retains the starting role, where he's averaging 28 minutes per game.
