Minutes are the coin of the realm in fantasy basketball. Cheap China Jerseys . Just as we crave snaps, targets and touches for our fantasy football assets, when assessing fantasy value on the hardwood, we look for opportunity in the form of minutes, the most important factor when it comes to the potential for statistical success.While most NBA teams have identified their starters by this late into the preseason, we still find some battles for meaningful roles and minutes underway on the doorstep of the new NBA season. In this piece, we canvas the league for some of the most relevant position battles for fantasy purposes.Depth chart nuggets in DenverThe Denver Nuggets backcourt could offer some value for fantasy investors. Will Barton broke out with helpful numbers at a shallow shooting guard position last season, while Gary Harris was useful in deeper formats, thanks to a rich allotment of minutes. Harris is currently recovering from a partially torn groin muscle, which has led to increased preseason exposure for rookie combo guard Jamal Murray.Nuggets coach Michael Malone recently said of Murray, Were going to have him play on the ball and off the ball. Hes got to learn all the spots on the floor. Thats what a good point guard should do anyway.We identified Murray as a deep sleeper candidate this season, but its even more intriguing to consider that he could challenge an inefficient Emmanuel Mudiay for time at point guard, something Barton and Harris cant claim. The Nuggets ranked 25th in the league in 3-point percentage last season, at just 33.8 percent from beyond the arc. Murray shot nearly 41 percent from deep at Kentucky last year, while Mudiay hit only 31.9 percent of his 3-point attempts as a rookie. If we can mix some assist upside into Murrays emerging fantasy profile, Mudiays shaky fantasy stock takes another hit.Questions about whether Denver could get consistent minutes for their tandem of talented bigs,?Jusuf Nurkic and Nikola Jokic, are being answered this preseason, as the team is starting both in a uniquely big frontcourt. Last season, this pairing played together on just 184 possessions and produced a lowly offensive rating (points per 100 possessions) of just 97.6
