 Mike Dunleavy-G/F- PacersJan. 31 - 9:04 pm et
Mike Dunleavy had his first serviceable game of the week on Sunday, scoring 12 points on 5-of-9 shooting (including a three) with four rebounds, five assists, and a steal.
You know things aren't good when we're pointing out a line like this as a positive, but that's the way things have been for Dunleavy, who has either been dropped in your league or can be purchased at a rock-bottom price. He makes for an interesting flier pickup when you consider his past history.

Mike Dunleavy and Troy Murphy are starting against the Raptors on Sunday, with Dahntay Jones and Roy Hibbert moving to the bench.
Owners can adjust each players' value a bit, but don't go overboard. More interestingly, the move to start Murphy may be a sign that Andrea Bargnani is going to play, since Murphy can better defend perimeter players which may be the reason Indy made the move.

 Mike Dunleavy-G/F - Pacers Jan. 27 - 9:54 pm et

Mike Dunleavy hit just 2-of-10 shots for four points in Wednesday's loss.
He was a popular start this week with four games, but has been a bust, scoring a total of 15 points over his last three games. Hopefully he'll do more with his minutes in the next one, but you can add him to the list of eventual shutdown candidates with his surgically-repaired knee.
 Brandon Rush-G/F - Pacers Jan. 25 - 9:59 pm et  

Brandon Rush had 16 points, three 3-pointers, four rebounds, two steals and block in Monday's win over the Sixers.
Rush now seems locked back into the starting lineup and he's producing. He's started the last six games and is averaging 12.8 points, 2.0 treys and 1.0 blocks over that span. There's some upside here, especially with Mike Dunleavy (three points, five rebounds tonight) looking completely inept.
 Dahntay Jones-G - Pacers Jan. 16 - 9:01 pm et  

Dahntay Jones played well in 19 minutes off the Pacers bench on Saturday, scoring 16 points on 7-of-12 shooting with three assists, one steal and one block.
Jones was active and efficient, but unless his playing time increases it'll be hard for him to have reliable fantasy value. There are simply too many guards and wing players vying for minutes, among them Mike Dunleavy (eight points in 30 minutes), A.J. Price (12 points in 28 minutes), Brandon Rush (seven points in 26 minutes), and Luther Head (out w/ ankle injury).
 Mike Dunleavy-G/F - Pacers Jan. 16 - 10:12 am et

Pacers coach Jim O'Brien will leave Mike Dunleavy on the bench, where he provides ball movement and veteran leadership.
"For Mike, who is a veteran, I think he's more interested in finishing the game than starting the game," O'Brien said. "I've talked to him about starting ... and he couldn't care less." As long as Dunleavy is playing 30 or more minutes per game, he should offer reliable fantasy value even in a reserve role.
