Robert Covington Cools Off Against Hawks on Monday
6 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers small forward Robert Covington struggled from the field against the Hawks. He scored 11 points, on 4-for-12 shooting from the field and 3-for-9 shooting from three-point territory. Covington added six rebounds and came up big defensively, adding three steals and two blocks. Like most shooters, Covington is prone to off-nights from the field, however his main fantasy appeal comes from his excellent defensive numbers. On the season, Covington is averaging 1.7 blocks and 1.7 steals as he continues to be one of the most elite 3-and-D options across the league. His matchup on Tuesday against the Raptors will be favorable as Toronto have allowed the fourth most steals to opposing small forwards.
