Jae Crowder changed his diet in order to get past the "rookie wall."
Crowder is concentrated on eating better and getting more rest, and he's also seeing a team psychologist at times. "I think I hit the rookie wall early in the year and I've moved forward and I feel pretty good right now," he said. Mar 27 - 10:45 AM

Jae Crowder grabbed a career-high 14 rebounds in the Mavs' 96-86 win over the Cavs on Friday, but managed just two points on 1-of-6 shooting with two steals and a block in 34 minutes.

Crowder will likely start as long as Shawn Marion (calf) is out, but we're not going to make a big deal over this rebounding total, which is a fluke. He might have some short-term, low-end value for those hunting peripheral stats but it's not a given.

Jae Crowder was efficient in Thursday's loss to the Spurs, shooting 2-of-3 from the field for five points with four boards, two assists, one steal and two blocks in 23 minutes.

Taking the five points out of the equation, it was a solid line from the rookie with no turnovers as a cherry on top. Crowder will continue to start for the Mavs while Shawn Marion is out and has some short-term value in deeper leagues.
Mar 14 - 10:52 PM

Jae Crowder shot 6-of-9 from the field for 14 points with eight boards, three assists, one steal and two 3-pointers in 36 minutes against the Bucks on Tuesday.

Crowder made the most of Shawn Marion's (calf) absence and looked great on his old college home floor at the Bradley Center. The Marquette product isn't really worth a look since Marion isn't going to be out much longer.
Mar 12 - 11:42 PM

Jae Crowder will start at small forward against the Pistons on Friday.

He's barely been in the rotation and this isn't really been a factor after his strong preseason. Crowder played 23 minutes per game in his previous eight starts, but those came with the roster dealing with health issues. Mike James is also starting at point guard again.
Mar 8 - 7:27 PM

Jae Crowder started the second half of Friday's game, but finished with just six points on 1-of-7 shooting (including a three), three rebounds and one steal in 14 minutes.

Crowder just hasn't been able to put things together this season, and can be safely ignored in most formats.

Jae Crowder started the second half of Friday's game in place of Dahntay Jones.

Crowder is averaging 1.0 steals and 0.6 triples in 19 minutes this year, but his ugly percentages of 37.2 percent from the field and 60.0 percent from the line will limit his upside. Just keep an eye on him for now.
Fri, Dec 28, 2012 10:01:00 PM

Jae Crowder matched his career high with 15 points to go with three rebounds, three assists and two 3-pointers in 26 minutes against the Thunder on Thursday.

Crowder played just 15 minutes per game in his last two and was called upon a little more tonight with the Mavericks being shorthanded. Dirk Nowitzki is coming back soon and Crowder can be left on the waiver wire in standard leagues.

Jae Crowder is still working his way back from the flu.

Crowder played 13 minutes in his last game, but Rick Carlisle said that he's not 100 percent despite practicing on Monday. He should be good to go before much longer, but the rookie apparently had a nasty case of the flu.
Tue, Dec 18, 2012 09:28:00 AM

Jae Crowder (illness) returned to action on Saturday with zero points in 13 minutes.

Crowder also failed to grab a rebound or hand out an assist. He has tantalizing upside, but this line says all 12-team owners need to know about his role while Shawn Marion is healthy.
Sat, Dec 15, 2012 11:31:00 PM

Jae Crowder will return from his illness and play against the Timberwolves on Saturday.

Crowder has been playing 20.3 minutes per game in his last five games and scoring only 4.6 points in that span. He's not worth owning in standard leagues unless the Mavericks are devastated by injuries.
Sat, Dec 15, 2012 06:53:00 PM

Rick Carlisle says Jae Crowder (illness) will be active Friday night against the Raptors, but might not dress.

It sounds like Crowder is a long-shot to play Friday. He's is battling flu-like symptoms and was forced to sit out Wednesday's game with a fever. Shawn Marion, Vince Carter and Dahntay Jones would get more time if Crowder is out against Toronto.
Fri, Dec 14, 2012 06:00:00 PM

Jae Crowder (illness) is questionable on Friday against the Raptors.

Crowder was forced to sit out on Wednesday due to a fever, and he's questionable on Friday with flu-like symptoms. Check back for an update, but Crowder's absence would mean more minutes for guys like Shawn Marion, Vince Carter and Dahntay Jones.
Fri, Dec 14, 2012 12:21:00 PM

Jae Crowder (illness) is questionable to play on Friday.

Crowder missed Wednesday's game with a fever, and rick Carlisle is hopeful that he'll be ready to play on Friday. His inconsistent playing time and production makes him difficult to trust, but his versatile game is packed with upside for fantasy owners.
Thu, Dec 13, 2012 08:19:00 AM

Jae Crowder (fever) remained at the team hotel and won't play Wednesday against the Celtics.

The Mavs don't play again until Friday, so it's unlikely this will cost Crowder more than a game. With Crowder out, expect more Vince Carter and Dahntay Jones against the Celtics.
