This is an interesting link I found that can help you when trying to figure out how many games your fantasy basketball players have on any given week of the season or now more importantly during the Fantasy Basketball Playoffs. It is particularly helpful when trying to figure out how many games your players will have during the fantasy playoff weeks.
I’ve used it to help with making a decision in my weekly roster lock league on whether it is worth it to pick up a player off waivers that I know I probably will only use as a fill in and need to know how many games they have on the weeks that my regular starters play two games. I just thought this might help some of you out down the road. And if you own anyone on the Hornets and think you have a shot at making the playoffs, you might want to check out their weeks 24 and 25 schedule.

Here is a list of players that might be worth adding to help your chances for the remainder of the season. They aren’t super studs but nobody expects to find one this late in the season. These are guys that can help fill in specific stats for you.
Toney Douglas(notes)- He is almost guaranteed the starting role for the rest of the season after his recent performance. He is a good source of steals, points and threes.
James Johnson(notes)- Good blocks and steals here. May even get you a three here and there. With Luol Deng still hurting, there is nothing but playing time ahead for this guy.
Jason Maxiell(notes)- He will start a lot with Ben Wallace ailing and should keep his playing time for the rest of the season. He’ll get you boards and decent points.
Anthony Tolliver(notes)- Threes, steals, boards and blocks in decent amounts. His problem has been inconsistency, which usually leads Don Nelson to benching a player but it hasn’t yet. Keep in mind though that Nellie is not afraid to pull the plug just as quick as he is to pull the trigger.
