Jonas Valanciunas: Opens season with 32-11 double-double

It’s only one game, but one can hardly be blamed for getting excited. Valanciunas is only 24 years old, and he has improved – slowly but steadily – every year he has been in the league. Perhaps the most important fantasy development here was not Valanciunas’ impressive production, but rather that he accumulated 35 minutes on the court, despite the Raptors enjoying a large lead throughout the game. He has averaged 26 minutes each of the past two seasons.
