Kyle Lowry, PG, Miami Heat (74.8% Owned ESPN)

After a hot start to the season, Lowry has been mired in a brutal slump. He averages under 13 points a game, with below-average shooting splits (40.5/33.5/85.1). His last 10 games have been even worse, scoring under 10 points a game and under 25 percent from three.
These struggles translate into poor fantasy production, with single-digit scoring nights becoming all too common. It may be time for Lowry owners to consider moving in another direction for guard help.
Thomas Bryant, PF/C, Los Angeles Lakers (19.6% Owned)

Bryant had a nice run as the starting big man for the Lakers, including the above 30-point outburst. However, Anthony Davis has returned, and his minutes are slowly increasing. This has coincided with a drop in minutes for Bryant. Now is the time to move on and seek other depth options at the center position. Bryant was a solid streamer for a while, but all good things must end.
Bruce Brown, SG/SF, Denver Nuggets (28.1% Owned)

Brown has been a reliable fill-in for the banged-up Nuggets, with Michael Porter Jr. and Jamal Murray nursing injuries. Now that both players have returned, Brown immediately returned to his bench role, playing only 22 minutes and tallying eight fantasy points.
He is no longer roster-worthy with the Nuggets operating at full capacity. Keep an eye on him though, as Porter Jr and Murray are injury-prone.
