Bad Puns And Other Preseason Musings…

October 19, 2024 | 2024-25 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes | 4 Comments

by:

We are now officially entering the final hours of the NBA preseason. In just a few days we’ll be watching real games, counting real stats, and likely overreacting to real performances. That is to be expected when weeks of anticipation meet lofty predictions and unrealistic expectations. After posting articles with my Big Leap Candidates and […]

Buy/Sell: Let’s Get The Show Started

November 1, 2023 | 2023-24 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Buy/Sell | 6 Comments

by:

Another fantasy season has started and the weekly Buy/Sell column is here to guide you and help you decide which players to buy low or add from the wire and which players to sell high or flat out drop to improve your chances for fantasy domination. Before diving into the recommendations, it would be amiss to not include the following from Stephen Curry.

Chef Curry with the chef’s kiss move on Dilon Brooks. The offensive flow of this guys is truly unmatched.

Usually this introduction will feature a recap of last week’s suggestions, so this will happen as per usual with next week’s article. For now, let’s go to the players we will discuss.

OKC Throwback Night! Durant and Westbrook Dominate Headlines

March 30, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes |

Kevin Durant is back!

For what feels like the millionth time. How many times does this guy have to be “back” before it’s not even a story anymore? I guess he gets infinite re-entries on this – ESPN even used the exact headline “KD is back!” It literally never ends, but I guess we gotta talk about his fantasy impact anyway.

Elsewhere on OKC Thunder throwback night, Russell Westbrook went HAM against the high-flying Memphis Grizzlies. Let’s dive in and take a look at these throwback performances under the fantasy basketball microscope.

Midweek Guidance – Rediscovering Life After Fantasy Hoops

March 23, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball | 11 Comments

Welcome to your midweek guidance for Week 22!  In this post, I identify widely-available players who can help you win your head-to-head matchup.  We’re almost at the point when we have to start thinking about life after fantasy hoops.  Having just lost in the finals of my Yahoo league (congrats, Kris!), I’m just four days away from defeating Bball Oracle (according to my vision board) and no longer needing to obsessively check injury reports ahead of each night’s action.  From Monday, I will be doing this solely for your benefit.  That is, for the benefit of anyone crazy enough to play fantasy basketball into April.  After that, I have to tend to all the things I’ve neglected in my life for six months.

Buy/Sell: The Beam of Hope

Regarding last week’s suggestions, it was one of the best weeks as both Austin Reaves and Josh Green provided excellent performances, with Reaves scoring a career high 35 points in his last game and Green filling in admirably for Luka Doncic. Patrick Beverley was also pretty solid and the absence of Alex Caruso should keep him relevant for standard leagues for the upcoming week as well.

Midweek Guidance – The Final Countdown

Welcome to your midweek guidance for Week 20!  In this post, I identify widely-available players who can help you win your head-to-head matchup.  Hopefully, you were able to add Mr. (W)Right last week and benefit from a top-25 run of games.  There are a number of other players whose names I constantly promote as streamers who can still be found on waiver wires – Donte DiVincenzo, Killian Hayes, Dennis Smith Jr., Kyle Anderson, Daniel Gafford.  They’re not perfect (Exhibits A and B: Gafford’s terrible Wednesday night and Hayes’ missed games), but their ceilings are high in categories that you might need.  I recommend looking their way first before reading down the rest of this list.

Buy/Sell: Shai’s Way To Superstardom

Regarding last week’s suggestions, Dennis Smith Jr. had a good week and should maintain respectable value for the remainder of the season and the same can be said for Matisse Thybulle, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Finally, Xavier Tillman was another successful suggestion and his value was further enhanced due to the injury to Brandon Clarke, who will remain out for the whole season. As long as he and Steven Adams remain sidelined, Tillman should be a good streamer for standard leagues.

We’re Back!

February 25, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes |

Denver’s post-deadline pickup of Reggie Jackson is an ill omen for Bruce Brown, and that manifested itself on Thursday. With Brown (53 percent rostered in Yahoo! standard leagues) relinquishing backup point guard responsibilities, he struggled to find footing, finishing his night with just two points, two rebounds, two assists, and no threes or defense. I fear he won’t have enough volume moving forward to put up counting stats, or enough time to make for it with defense. I’m ready to cut bait  on him right now.

Midweek Guidance – Find the Schedule Gems

Welcome to your midweek guidance for Week 18!  In this post, I identify widely-available players who can help you win your head-to-head matchups.  I’m coming to you later than usual this week, since the post-All-Star Break action didn’t start in earnest until last night.  It should be all about the playoffs for most of you.  In some cases, there’s no tomorrow if you don’t win this matchup.  For others, your focus is Week 19 and beyond.  I’ll try to cater to both in this edition of midweek guidance.

Midweek Guidance – The Calm Before the Playoff Storm

February 16, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball |

by:

Welcome to your midweek guidance for Week 18!  In this post, I identify widely available players who can help you win your head-to-head matchup.  We’re about two thirds of the way through the weirdest portion of the fantasy season, when fantasy and actual teams are disrupted by trades leading and teams pack on extra rest days for their players leading up to the All-Star Break (ASB).  To make it even more strange, Week 18 spans 13-26 February in most formats, which gives us a total of eight game days to consider.  Enjoy the next few days of maybe not thinking as much about fantasy hoops (who am I kidding), because for most of you, the chance at postseason glory is right around the corner!
