Eric Bledsoe scored eight points off the bench on Wednesday against the Mavs, hitting 4-of-12 shots with five rebounds, five assists, three steals, and one block in 19 minutes.
Bledsoe has been providing borderline value in 12-team formats over the past two weeks, averaging 17.6 minutes, 8.9 points, 0.4 threes, 3.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.4 steals, 0.9 blocks, and 43.9 percent shooting from the field. His upside is capped in a crowded situation, and with fluctuating production in a bench role he's more of a deep league asset.

Taking advantage of extended garbage time, Eric Bledsoe came off the bench for 14 points, four assists, four steals, two blocks and one turnover in 26 minutes vs. the Kings.
Bledsoe has been effective whenever he's on the court, but this represents a season-high in playing time for the young guard. With Chauncey Billups back in action, it's hard to see his role increasing in the coming weeks.

Eric Bledsoe was productive off the bench with 12 points, two rebounds, two steals, one block and one 3-pointer in 19 minutes
Bledsoe continues to rack up the steals and has an average of 1.6 in only 18.4 minutes this year. Even when Chauncey Billups comes back, it might be hard to keep Bledsoe on the bench for coach Del Negro.

Eric Bledsoe came off the bench for 15 points, five assists, a steal, a block and a 3-pointer on 7-of-14 shooting Wednesday.
Jamal Crawford was very passive tonight and Bledsoe took advantage of seeing minutes at both guard spots. There's no doubt he has the potential to be a star, but as long as Chris Paul and Crawford are healthy, Bledsoe is going to be too hit-or-miss to rely on in fantasy.

Eric Bledsoe scored 11 points on 3-of-10 shooting (no threes) with five rebounds, five assists, four steals, and one block in 26 minutes off the bench against the Cavs on Monday.
Bledsoe was needed to combat the red-hot Cavs uber-backcourt and he ended up posting a nice line in the process. A demon on defense and fully capable of making plays on offense, the Clippers are going to have to find ways to keep him on the floor when the team is at full strength in a month or so. As for right now, Bledsoe's production is still too intermittent for fantasy owners to count on.

Eric Bledsoe had 13 points, four rebounds and four assists in 17 minutes in Wednesday's opener.
It's hard to imagine Bledsoe having fantasy value as long as Chris Paul is healthy, but the fact he's racking up this kind of production in such limited run is intriguing. If you own CP3, handcuffing Bledsoe to him makes sense.

Eric Bledsoe excelled in his start at point guard with 22 points, five boards, 11 assists, nine steals and one triple in 44 minutes in the win against the Lakers.
Well, Bledsoe gets the nod for the biggest line of the preseason so far with this gem. The Clippers gave him an extension last week and it's easy to see why he's one of the more talented backup point guards in the NBA.

Eric Bledsoe shined in the Clippers' preseason opener with 25 points (on 12-of-19 shooting), eight rebounds, six assists, five steals and five turnovers in Saturday's loss to the Nuggets.
The Clippers exercised the fourth-year option on Bledsoe last month, so it's nice to see Bledsoe is capable of turning in some big numbers. Jamal Crawford pumped in 19 points and had five assists in 27 minutes, too. Bledsoe serves as a handcuff to Chris Paul and Jamal Crawford is player to look at later in your draft if you can stomach the poor shooting percentage.

The Clippers exercised the club's fourth-year contract option on Eric Bledsoe.
Bledsoe has been backing up the likes of John Wall in college and Chris Paul in the NBA, so he hasn't really had much of a chance to show what he can do. However, he did play 33.7 minutes during the first month of his NBA career when Baron Davis went down in October 2010. He will likely need both Chauncey Billups and Chris Paul to miss time to have value in standard leagues.

Eric Bledsoe is drawing "widespread interest from around the league," sources tell ESPN Los Angeles.
Although Bledsoe is a sought after commodity, the Clippers value him a great deal, and the report states that the Clippers would have to have to be blown away in order to realistically part with Bledsoe. In other words, don't expect him to go anywhere unless some team drastically overpays.
