Fantasy Analysis
Shaq hasn't averaged 10 rebounds in a season since 2004-05, his first season in Miami, but averaged 10 boards per game in each of the three months he played for the Suns. His days as a dominant 20-and-10 center are gone, but he may be able to sustain a 10-rebound season in 2008-09 with the team looking to take on more of a half-court feel that Shaq will play a big role in. There is also the fact that Shaq hasn't played more than 70 games in a season since 2004-05. Fantasy owners should look to him as a No. 2 center, but couple him with another center you wouldn't mind using for at least 20 games during the season. (Updated 05/14/2008).
