The fantasy basketball season is almost at the midway point and there are plenty of players tearing up the box score. Not all of them will keep it up, though, so here are 10 players to sell high now, while they still have value.

Wroten is currently averaging an incredible 17.2 points per game and is one of the bright spots on this Philly team. Unfortunately, he will now be back on the bench with Michael Carter-Williams returning to the starting lineup. He may still score 10 points a game, but his days of 20-plus are far gone.

Lopez is scoring a respectable 14.8 points per game, but he is only averaging 6.4 rebounds. His minutes have declined steadily each game, and Mason Plumlee has even replaced him in the staring lineup. Cash in on his name while you still can.

8. G Gerald Henderson, Charlotte Hornets

Henderson may be averaging a meager 9.8 points per game at the moment, but he is coming off a huge 31-point outburst this Thursday. This is the perfect time to move this hot scorer.

After posting 13.3 points and 8.2 rebounds per game in December, Boozer is posting a meager 11.5 points and 6.5 rebounds this month. Boozer is seeing fewer starts, and it seems that the veteran has really hit a wall this year. Fantasy fans should try to move him now before it is too late.

Jackson was a superstar earlier this season when Russell Westbrook was hurt, but the addition of Dion Waiters last week to an already crowded backcourt has drastically dropped Jackson’s fantasy value. This is time to finally sell R-Jack.

5. G Manu Ginobili, San Antonio Spurs

Ginobili is posting an impressive 12.5 points, 5.0 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 25.3 minutes of action. He has already missed games with a back injury, though, and the 37-year-old will surely miss more time moving forward. Sell high on him before the All-Star break.

Chandler has only played in an average of 61 games over the past three years. He has already played in 37 of the team’s 38 games this year. It is only a matter of time until he is either hurt, or simply given more days off, so it is worth testing the water. After all, his 10.7 points and 12 rebounds per game has to attract someone's attention.

Duncan is a future Hall of Famer and is posting an impressive double-double per game (15.3 points/10.3 rebounds). However, we all know Gregg Popovich loves to rest his stars down the stretch. The 38-year-old will see fewer and fewer minutes in the coming weeks, so cash in on him now while you can.

2. G Derrick Rose, Chicago Bulls

Rose has looked like his former self at times this year. He is posting a healthy 16.9 points per game, and he has displayed explosiveness around the rim. However, he is already missing time with knee issues, which is extremely concerning. It is only a matter of time until he starts to miss some serious time.

Anthony has been a shell of himself this season. Sure, he is averaging 23.9 points per game, but he is consistently missing games due to a knee injury. It has even been rumored that he is even thinking about shutting it down for a couple weeks. It may be tough to move him, but if there are any takers, it is a no-brainer. Just look for the guy in your league wearing a Knicks hat.
