While a repeat in Game 4 is unlikely, he represents yet another player that the Heat have to worry about. Neal played 25 minutes Tuesday night after playing 22 minutes in each of the first two games of the series. He is clearly favored ahead of Cory Joseph at the moment, despite the fact that both players took on a similar share of the playing time during the Western Conference Finals. Starting point guard Tony Parker hurt his hamstring during Game 3, so both Neal and Joseph could be in line to see increased playing time in Thursday's Game 4.","date":"Tue Jun 11"},"fullName":"Gary Neal","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"A sharpshooting point guard, Neal proved to be a solid backup for Tony Parker last season with averages of 9.9 points and 1.5 3-pointers in 21.5 minutes per game off the bench. Unfortunately, he doesn't offer much else from a fantasy perspective as he averaged only 2.1 assists and 0.5 steals per contest. While he may offer fleeting value for his 3-point shooting, Neal shouldn't be considered anything more than a specialist in deeper fantasy leagues.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Fri Oct 12"},"playerRater30DAY":0.2,"playerRater15DAY":2.9,"positionRank":50}
