Aminu recorded 17 points (7-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, and a block and assist over 32 minutes in Monday’s win over the Timberwolves.

While Blazers teammates Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum have justifiably captured most of the attention of fantasy players in the early going, Aminu’s contributions shouldn’t be overlooked. The small forward is averaging 14.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 1.8 three-pointers over the Blazers’ first four games. He’s supplemented the strong all-around showing with marks of 47.6 percent from the field and 84.6 percent from the line. With Aminu looking set to see over 30 minutes per game until further notice, those in shallower or mid-sized formats ought to consider picking him up.
