Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard Anfernee Simons is a worthy consideration as a fantasy basketball waiver wire pickup heading into Week 5 of the NBA season.
BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 23% of leagues
ANALYSIS: After a mostly quiet rookie year, second-year Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard Anfernee Simons has started to show some promising flashes of late. Simons kicked off November by scoring double digits in five straight games, with at least two three-pointers in all but one contest. He appears to be a fixture in Portland's rotation going forward, which should make him a solid source of three-pointers and points.

CLAIM IT NOWSimons has been seeing about 25 minutes per game in November and he certainly hasn't been shy about hoisting up shots. He's been regularly attempting 10 or more field goals per game, including between five and eight attempts from three.
We've yet to see much substance from categories outside points and threes. He hasn't topped four rebounds or two assists in a game yet and he only has three games with a steal so far this year. However, those stats all might start to materialize as he gets more comfortable in his new role. Add him in leagues of 12 or more teams if you need help in points or threes.
