Jeff Taylor started at SG on Saturday with Gerald Henderson (shin) injured, scoring four points on 2-of-10 shooting, with eight rebounds, two assists and three steals in 24 minutes. Taylor is quietly having a nice rookie campaign, averaging 6.9 points, 0.8 threes, 2.4 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 24 minutes per game, with 21 starts to his credit. He's not turning the tide of games, to be sure, but Charlotte may have found something with this year's No. 31st pick.

Jeff Taylor came off the Bobcats' bench on Saturday to score three points with one rebound in 16 minutes. Taylor was shooting 4-of-16 from the field in the past three games, while starting at SG, and with Gerald Henderson healthy the writing was on the wall.

Jeff Taylor played 30 minutes and scored 12 points, grabbed two rebounds and made two 3-pointers against the Hawks on Thursday. Taylor played some power forward for the Bobcats and coach Mike Dunlap got a little creative late in the game. However, the 30 minutes from tonight were a little deceiving with garbage time being factor. He should be left on the waiver wire in almost all leagues.

Mike Dunlap said that he's willing to give his younger players "breathing room." Jeff Taylor has started every game since November 7, and although he had just four points, three rebounds, two assists and a steal (1-of-8 shooting) in his last game, Dunlap won't give the young players a quick hook. "A (Byron) Mullens, a Kidd-Gilchrist, a Jeff Taylor, even a Kemba (Walker) - who a lot of people assume has already arrived - needs some breathing room," Dunlap said. It's good news if you own any of the young Bobcats players who have contributed this season.

Jeff Taylor hit just 1-of-8 shots in the Bobcats' 104-96 loss to the Warriors on Monday, finishing with four points, three rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 33 minutes. Taylor has been struggling with his shot but it looks like he has a fan in Mike Dunlap. While this could theoretically mean he'll bounce back when his shot begins to fall, the log-jam in the backcourt is enough of a deterrent for us to give owners the okay to move along. Kemba Walker (6-of-16 FGs) added 24 points, six assists, one steal, one block, and three treys in the loss.

Jeff Taylor hit just 1-of-10 shots on Friday against the Bucks, scoring four points with two rebounds and one assist in 27 minutes. Taylor still saw substantial minutes, but the writing may be on the wall with Gerald Henderson (24 minutes, 19 points) getting back on track and threats to his minutes everywhere. Sure, it could bite you in the butt, but dropping Taylor for a hot free agent will probably be a well-timed transaction.

Jeff Taylor scored 16 points on 6-of-10 shooting (including two threes) with one rebound, two assists, and one steal in 33 minutes on Friday against the Sixers. Taylor has looked great during his time on the court and he'll be well worth owning until Gerald Henderson (foot) returns and that could be soon. Owners should just ride him until the wheels fall off, and maybe they'll catch a lucky break along the way.

Mike Dunlap called rookie Jeff Taylor a "very, very good defender." "The bonus is he's coming faster on offense than any of us thought," he said. Dunlap will have a challenge when Gerald Henderson (foot) returns in order to find Taylor consistent minutes, and that's one reason we like Taylor as a sell-high candidate. As a starter, Taylor is averaging 8.1 points, 1.3 steals and 1.0 treys on 43.4 percent shooting.

Jeff Taylor scored 10 points on 4-of-7 shooting (including a three) with two rebounds and four steals in 26 minutes of Monday's blowout loss. Taylor has been worth owning in 12-team leagues over the past two weeks and he has been a mid-round value over the past four games. Amidst the disaster that was the Bobcats tonight, he emerged relatively unscathed. It's worth noting that he'll struggle to hold value whenever Gerald Henderson returns.

Coming off a season-high 16 points on Friday, Jeff Taylor fouled out of Saturday's victory with 12 points, two 3-pointers, three rebounds, two steals and three turnovers in 37 minutes. "The coach is telling me to be aggressive on offense and I'm trying to learn and pick my spots and play off the other guys,'' Taylor said. He's showing some promise this week, but his run as a starter isn't likely to continue when Gerald Henderson (foot) is healthy enough to return.
