Saddiq Bey finished Friday’s win over the Timberwolves with 30 points (10-of-21 FGs, 7-of-7 FTs), nine rebounds, five assists, one steal and three three-pointers.
While his first season in New Orleans hasn’t been successful from a team wins standpoint, this has been the most productive year of Bey’s NBA career. He recorded his third 30-point game of the season on Friday, helping lead the Pelicans to an upset win in Minneapolis. Over the past three weeks, Bey has been a first-round player in 12-team leagues, according to Basketball Monster. He’s still rostered in 42 percent of Yahoo! leagues, which is way too low, given Bey’s production.
