AUSTIN
RIVERS

Denver • 2021-22
Oct. 7, 2017 - Rivers will see more of an opportunity this year than he ever has and that's mildly intriguing. He's never been particularly efficient with his minutes but he's still just 25 years old and could conceivably raise his scoring average considerably in the Post-Chris Paul Era. Consider him in deep leagues and at least keep an eye on him in shallow ones. (@AustinKent)
