Doug Collins said that Maalik Wayns has to work on his on-ball defense in order to stay on the floor consistently. |
Collins likes Wayns' ability to help on the offensive end, but it's a game played at both ends of the floor. "We want him going in the right direction," Collins said. He's worth watching in extremely deep leagues, but that's about it. |

Wayns had a season-high 10 points and added two 3-pointers in 13 minutes Tuesday and appears to have a solid hold on the Sixers' backup PG job. Collins also said he trusts Wayns to take his shots and if you're in a deep league, he could be worth watching. |

Maalik Wayns had a season-high 10 points and two 3-pointers in 13 minutes of Tuesday's win. |
He scored seven points in his previous game and might be ready to become a part of the regular rotation in Philly. If you're in a 20-team league, it's possible Wayns could become relevant, so just keep an eye on him. |
