Fantasy Analysis
Garnett played his first NBA season alongside two top NBA stars -- Paul Pierce and Ray Allen -- and all three players saw a decline in scoring numbers, as expected. Garnett also saw his rebounding numbers dip under 10 for the first time in nine years. Now that they have to share the scoring load, there just isn't enough touches for Garnett to average 20-and-10 as he had in each of his previous nine seasons. Garnett remains an elite Fantasy forward when you consider all that he offers (blocks, steals and field-goal percentage), but Fantasy owners will have to temper expectations for all of the Boston Three Party members.
