Fantasy Basketball: Week 23 Top 150

The Nets are a disaster, but they might be able to help you win a Fantasy championship in Week 23.

Editor's Note: Every week, we will release the Top 150 players based on their SportsLine projections for that scoring period. Use this list to compare players and help make those really tough decisions.

This season really couldn't have gone any worse for the Nets. This team harbored dreams of fighting for a playoff spot, but that stopped being a realistic goal within the first month of the season. They lost Jarrett Jack to a season-ending knee injury, and haven't really had any blue chip prospects to look forward to developing. Oh, and they don't have their own pick in this year's draft to at least soften the blow.

Just about the only good news to come out of Brooklyn this season has been Brook Lopez staying healthy for the second year in a row. That has been excellent news for Fantasy players as well, who have at least been able to take advantage of big seasons from Lopez and frontcourt mate Thaddeus Young, both of whom have been must-start options all season long.

Beyond those two, it's been slim pickings, with a seemingly endless cast of castoffs and D-League caliber players flanking Young and Lopez. However, there have been a few reasons for optimism, and the Nets might actually be the team that decides countless Fantasy championships in Week 23 (March 28-April 3).

That's because the Nets have five games on the schedule next week, one of two teams (along with the Bulls) who have that distinction. And while the Bulls are a relatively deep team full of players who are likely already owned, the Nets actually have some players you may be able to scoop up and lock into your lineup.

Take Bojan Bogdanovic. He is owned in just 65 percent of CBSSports.com leagues, despite averaging 19.7 points, 2.8 assists and 2.3 3-pointers per game in the month of March. He might not be able to keep this hot shooting up, but with five games on the schedule, he is almost certainly going to get enough volume to be worth starting.

The other obvious pickup is Sean Kilpatrick, who might actually be the the biggest bright spot for the team this season. In just 22 minutes per game in the month of March, Kilpatrick is averaging 14.7 points per game, and is worth adding for Week 23 even if he is will certainly cool off moving forward. He is getting enough shots that he should be worth starting in all formats, even with extremely limited peripheral production.

You get the point. The Nets and Bulls dominate the Top 150 in projected Fantasy scoring, with 13 players on the list between the two teams; the Nets have seven. It won't feel great dropping someone like Trevor Ariza for Bogdanovic, or Kentavious Caldwell-Pope for Kilpatrick, but it might be exactly the sort of unorthodox move you need to make to bring home the title.
