Barbosa poured in 18 points (8-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt) to go with three rebounds across 33 minutes in Sunday's 120-119 overtime loss to the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Barbosa has established new season highs in minutes in back-to-back games, serving as the Suns' de facto sixth man while Brandon Knight has been marginalized. With Knight shooting a career-worst 37.8 percent from the field this season and turning the ball over too often, it appears coach Earl Watson could continue to lean heavily on Barbosa as his lead guard off the bench. The 34-year-old could be worth a flier in deeper leagues, but fantasy owners shouldn't hesitate to cut bait as soon as his playing time trends downward.
