Iverson shares load with Anthony: Playing alongside Carmelo Anthony for a first full season in 2007-08 didn't take quite a big a toll on Iverson's scoring numbers as expected. He averaged 24.8 points in 50 games with the Nuggets in 2006-07, but managed 26.4 in his first full season in Denver. (Updated 05/13/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Melo averaged 22.4 shots per game in 2006-07, but saw that total drop 19.2 per game while playing alongside A.I. for a full season. Iverson, who averaged almost a full point higher than Melo per game, averaged taking 19.0 shots per game. This means that both players are going to be taking the same amount of shots per game, lessening their overall potential for scoring. With that said, Iverson managed to play a full 82 game season for the first time 2002-03 regular season and a 26-7-3 guard will be worth selecting in the first round in most Fantasy hoops leagues. The only question at this stage is his age, 32. (Updated 05/13/2008).
