Tyler Ennis

After spending 31 games with the Rockets to open the 2016-17 campaign, Ennis was eventually dealt to the Lakers at the trade deadline. He averaged just 6.3 minutes in Houston, but saw his workload increase to 17.8 minutes across 22 games in Los Angeles. While the added playing time translated to boosted averages of 7.7 points, 1.2 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.0 three-pointer, it still wasn't enough to make him a valid option in the majority of Fantasy leagues. That's not likely going to change much heading into the 2017-18 season. While D'Angelo Russell was traded to the Nets in the offseason and Jose Calderon departed to join the Cavaliers, the Lakers selected Lonzo Ball with the second overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft and also brought in Josh Hart later in the first round, bringing additional young backcourt bodies that will need minutes to develop. With Ball and Jordan Clarkson capable of running the point and clearly ahead of Ennis on the depth chart, Ennis will likely have to battle with Hart for any leftover playing time. That means Ennis isn't expected to see much more run than a season ago, which should limit is overall impact as a Fantasy player.
