With Rajon Rondo and Devin Harris out due to injury, Barea could be an intriguing scoring option for a week or two. He has scored 10 points in back-to-back games and will be more productive in the short term than Raymond Felton. Barea will even be a strong scoring option in daily formats.

Dudley has dropped double-digit points in five of the last six contests. Over that time, he has averaged 15.8 points and 2.3 triples per contest. He has shined since becoming a starter and will be a strong point producer to scoop off the waiver wire this week.

Caldwell-Pope has really picked up his game in 2015. He has scored double-digit points in seven of the last nine games, including 28 points against Houston to close out the onto of January. KCP may be inconsistent at times, but he appears to be red-hot at the moment.

Clarkson has shockingly scored 18 or more points in three straight games for Los Angeles. He is also extremely dangerous behind the arc, as he has knocked down five triples over that period. The Lakers need someone to pick up the scoring with Kobe Bryant done for the year and Clarkson could very well be that guy.

Motiejunas has been a star for Houston. He has racked up 16-plus points in three straight games, including back-to-back games with 20-plus. He has also knocked down six triples and added 21 boards over that stretch as well. Motiejunas will be the top scoring option to add off the wire this week.
