Suns 116, Celtics 98
No Paul Pierce, no Kevin Garnett, big problem. The Celtics, without two of their big three, were no match for the run and gun Suns. Amare Stoudemire had a big first half scoring 18 of his 26 points while grabbing 7 rebounds in the process.

Normally in my Fantasy Update posts I have tried to give you, the reader, players who you can pick up before they start to break out. Some have worked out (Brendan Haywood and Brandon Jennings) and some have not (cue up Steve Blake). Last night was probably the greatest fantasy night I have seen all year. I’m going to highlight last night’s five best performers in the fantasy world. The amazing thing is this list does not even include LeBron James’ and Russell Westbrook’s near triple-doubles.

Delonte West
