Lighting it up for Rams Roddy finished with 36 points (13-20 FG, 7-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Sunday's 95-81 victory over Creighton. Impact Roddy may have been limited by a back injury in the season opener, but in the four games since, the third-year forward has averaged 27.8 points and 8.5 rebounds across 31.5 minutes. He's also been filling up the ancillary fantasy categories with a four-block game and a steal in every contest over that stretch. It's tough to imagine improvement from the 15.9-point, 9.4-rebound season Roddy posted in 2020-21, but he's doing it more efficiently this time around, shooting 58.3 percent from the field and 50 percent from three-point range. There will probably be some regression from those career-best marks, but Roddy still represents arguably the best fantasy asset in the Mountain West as the Rams look to build on their 5-0 start.
