After a disappointing 2011-12 campaign, James van Riemsdyk might break out next season.

van Riemsdyk's problems were first and foremost injury related. However, he's now expected to avoid offseason surgery and should be 100% for training camp. "I know I am going to be a strong and competitive player in this league," van Riemsdyk said. "I have no doubt about that. Right now, I'm just focusing on getting healthy and being that player." There's definitely no guarantee that van Riemsdyk will have better luck in 2012-13, but he's worth the risk if you can get him for a late pick in a standard fantasy league draft.
