Rudy Gay puts up very similar numbers to Carmelo Anthony, and you will find the two players ranked right after each other in our draft kit for just that reason. Anthony gets all the attention, as a “superstar” but Rudy Gay deserves the same accolades, as he averaged 19 PPG, 6.4 RPG, 2.3 APG, 1.5 SPG, .8 3PG, and .8 BPG a season ago. He contributes across the board, and is a solid early 3rd round pickup for fantasy basketball 2012-13.
