Brian Robert's first start of the season did not go well against the Mavericks on Friday, scoring nine points with seven boards, one assist and one 3-pointer in 25 minutes. He is expected to start for the foreseeable future with Jrue Holiday suffering a stress fracture in his leg. Roberts has struggled mightily on offense, can't score around the basket and hasn't been able to push the tempo for the Pelicans while he's been on the court, but things should go better in the future. He's worth owning in standard leagues for his ability to add points, assists, steals and 3-pointers.
