Better late than never, and thanks to our newly tapped stat man – Jon Folmar.

Week 5 (January, 23rd, 2010) was a busy AFBL showing with about 17 people showing to play. This put us back in 5 on 5 mode after most of Season 9 playing 4 on 4. The stats reflect the crowded paint and ugly play. The MVP of week 5, Ethan Conner-Ross. Fresh off his honeymoon, Ethan laid down a triple double, with 18 points, 16 rebounds and 10 assists.

On to the fantasy evaluations…

Marcus, 0.67 – Not his most productive AFBL day ever, but his did manage to shoot %50 (1 for 2) from three. It was really his 8 turnovers (1.3 per game, 2nd worst) that pulled him down.

Roland Burns, 1.63 – Roland filled almost every column (except, oddly, assists) but shot just 18.2% on the day.

Justin Stuhltrager, 2.79 – Justin is not living up to the hype this season. His no looks are way down but we’ll chalk it up to an off week.

Andrew Jeffrey Wright, 3.33 – 7 points and 9 rebounds, but AJ Dubs shot just 15% on the day.

Dominic Fuscia, 3.38 – .5 Assists per game (3rd best) but coupled with 1.5 turnovers per game (worst of the day).

Andrew Jones, 3.6 – Andrew Jones is known as a volume shooter. On this day he only played 2.5 games and his numbers reflected the lack of volume: 4 points, 4 rebounds and 1 steal.

Alan Sable, 3.63 – Alan played four quiet productive games and shot 60% (2nd best) while he was at it.

Paul A, 4.4 – Paul posts his best AFBL numbers yet, just barely missing a double double with 10 points and 9 rebounds.

Isaac Lin, 5.0 – In one single game Isaac scored 5, grabbed 3 boards (4th best per game) and shot %50 from threeland.

John Freeborn, 5.75 – Worst day ever! Just 2 points shooting an amazingly bad 5.7% (worst of the day). His saving grace: 15 rebounds (3.8 per game, tied for best of the day), 2 steals (.5 per, 4th best), 2 blocks (.5 per game, best of the day) and 1 assist.

Mike, 5.78 – Mike’s numbers closely resemble John’s. 4 points on 8.7%, 16 rebounds (3.6 per for 3rd best) and .4 blocks per game (2nd best).

John Ballzarini, 7.4 – The return of the Ballzman! He comes back from the dead and shoots 62.5% (best) and scores 10 points. Only 5 rebounds, which must be the lowest ever for him, and one steal for good measure.

Jon Hummel, 8.06 – Hummel continues to play solid ball. After a week off he comes back with 6.1 points per game (best), 5 threes, 17 rebounds and 5 assists. His turnovers continue to hold him back: 6 TOs.

Jon Folmar, 8.63 – John Thousand’s play speaks for itself: 4.1 points per game (5th best), 19 rebounds, .8 assists per game (2nd best), .6 steals per game (tied for 2nd best). 8 TOs and 25% from the floor hurt his overall fantasy value.

Mark, 9.22 – Mark energy and long arms put him everywhere on this day: 5.1 points per game (tied for 2nd best), .7 threes per game (tied for best),  12 rebounds, .7 steals per game (best).

Jules Cornellius, 9.44 – Jules played a patient and efficient game: 5.1 points per game (tied for 2nd best), .7 threes per game (tied for best), 2.9 rebounds per game (5th best), 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.

Andrew Freeborn, 9.77 – Out of retirement to battle the Ballzman and AJF wins this round. 17 points, 3.8 rebounds per game (tied for best), .6 steals per game (tied for 2nd best) and 2 assists.

Ethan Conner-Ross, 18.00 – Tripple double with 18 points, 16 rebounds and 10 assists (1.5 per, best). Throw in 2 steals and Ethan had a good day. He didn’t shot his usual solid percentage but he’s just shaking off the rust, watch out.
