Description: A Boston Globe reports suggests that Leandro Barbosa will see an uptick in minutes now that starting point guard Rajon Rondo is out for the year with a torn ACL. | Insight: Barbosa saw 30 minutes of playing time Sunday against the Heat, his most since November 15th at Brooklyn. Barbosa is only averaging 2.4 apg for his career so we wouldn't expect him to contribute much in that category but he's been an effective scorer when given the chance (12.1 ppg in 622 career games). | | |

Sherrod Blakely, CSN New England | Insight: Barbosa is only playing 12 mpg this season and only serves as backcourt depth for the Celtics behind Rajon Rondo, Jason Terry and Courtney Lee.

Description: Boston guard Leandro Barbosa won't be in action Friday against the Bucks. | Insight: He's dealing with a family matter. Barbosa (5 ppg) is only averaging 12.5 minutes per game this season, so even when he's active he doesn't offer much in terms of fantasy production. | | |

Description: Celtics guard Leandro Barbosa is questionable for Friday's game against Philadelphia due to illness. | Insight: Barbosa was active for Wednesday's game, but played less than a minute. Obviously he's not a fantasy option at this time. | | |

Description: Celtics guard Leandro Barbosa is questionable for Wednesday's game against Minnesota due to illness. | Insight: Barbosa missed both Monday and Tuesday's practice. The Celtics still have plenty of talent at guard and Rajon Rondo (back from suspension), Jason terry and Courtney Lee can easily pick up the slack. | | |

Description: Celtics guard Leandro Barbosa scored all 16 of his points Tuesday in the fourth quarter, going 6-of-8 from the field and 3-of-4 from 3-point range. | Insight: Barbosa was called on for a late spark with Jason Terry (8 points, 2-7 shooting) and Jeff Green (3 points, 0-4) struggling. He's unlikely to be a consistent option unless those players continue to falter. | | |

Description: The Celtics have agreed on a one-year contract with guard Leandro Barbosa, Yahoo! Sports reports. | Insight: Besides Rajon Rondo it's extremely difficult to predict who will stand out among Boston's guard options. The Celtics will head into the season with Jason Terry, Courtney Lee, Barbosa and Jeff Green among players who can play the two-guard spot. The situation will be further complicated by the return of Avery Bradley in December. | | |

Description: Leandro Barbosa was traded to the Pacers for a second-round draft pick. | Insight: We know Barbosa can score points (12.2 points per game) but is there really a spot for him in Indiana's rotation? Paul George, Darren Collison and George Hill have all been getting significant minutes for the Pacers, so Indiana is already fairly guard-heavy. It's doubtful that Barbosa will get as much playing time with the Pacers as he did in Toronto so expect his fantasy value to suffer. | | |

Description: GM Bryan Colangelo believes that Leandro Barbosa's most recent wrist injury could hinder him for the rest of his career
SOURCE: Toronto Star | Insight: While a wrist injury is nothing compared to something like a knee, it's enough to knock him out of the conversation as a sleeper in standard leagues. Barbosa didn't do much besides scorer the ball and doesn't appear to be part of the team's plans down the line. | | |

Description: Leandro Barbosa also saw a piece of the pie with respect to minutes by logging 28 of them and producing 18 points on 8-of-15 shooting. | Insight: Barbosa did exactly what we expected him to do and those that plug-n-played him per our instructions should feel pretty good. Expect a similar line and hopefully he can hit a three-point shot or two. | | |

Description: Barbosa played through a sore ankle Friday night and wound up with 19 points in just 25 minutes off the bench. | Insight: Barbosa saw his biggest minutes in five games and responded with three treys amid a good shooting night. His ankle can't be too bad off. (RapidDraft.com) | | |

Description: Leandro Barbosa (five points on 2-of-11 shooting in 17 minutes) and James Johnson (eight points, six boards, and two steals in 24 minutes) could not keep the ball rolling after their recent impressive showings in Oklahoma City on Sunday. | Insight: This game was a blowout and deep league owners might want to stand pat with either of these two guys. There was not really a player that emerged in most deep leagues tonight, in other words, don't cut either for Tiago Splitter. | | |

Description: Leamdro Barbosa has a nice evening by laying down a line of 18 points, three boards, three assists, two steals, and a three in 26 minutes during the loss to Detroit on Tuesday. | Insight: The Blur has been playing well and he is now on alert in most leagues. He can fill it up in most categories and he just needs a break or two before he becomes very relevant. | | |
