Fantasy Basketball 2017/18: 10 Players to draft in Round 2

#7 Jimmy Butler (G-F, Minnesota Timberwolves )

Jimmy 'G' Buckets in Beast Mode

Three-time all-star Jimmy Butler aka Jimmy 'G' Buckets was one of the stars players who changed teams this offseason. He was traded by the Bulls to Minnesota on draft day for along with Bulls' first round pick for Zach Lavine, Kris Dunn and the Timberwolves first round pick.

An elite two-way player and one of the best at his position Butler now joins forces with one of the best big men and an athletic force on the wing in Karl-Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins in order to bring an end to NBA's longest standing playoff drought and rattle a few cages up in the Western Conference. He also gets to work under coach Tom Thibodeau who made him the player he is today.

Jimmy averaged 23.9 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game last season, having the same stats might be a bit difficult as KAT is the main man on this team and not him. We can still expect 18+ points, 4+ rebounds and 4+ assists each night from him.

#8 Damian Lillard (PG, Portland Trail Blazers

)

Lillard guiding your team to victory

2013 NBA Rookie of the year and two-time all-star Damian Lillard makes up one-half of the Portland 'Splash Brothers'.

He comes into this season after averaging a career high in points (27 points per game) and rebounds (5.8 points per game) while also averaging 5.9 assists per game which is sure to increase this season.

With the team set to build around him, it might be his best fantasy season this year.
