Personally, I would take Lowry, Kittles, McClain, Thomas and Bradley. Lowry's criminally underrated at $2 and his stock is hurt by only playing two seasons on the Main Line. I'm using $5 on Kittles because of his blend of size, speed and scoring ability. He's a matchup nightmare.
McClain can operate as my do-it-all defensive maestro while I get more star power at the forward spot with Tim Thomas, who can operate both inside and out. Bradley is reliable and a solid value pick at just $1.
