For the second straight season myself along with Kostas and Jay from Razzball joined the Yahoo! Friends and Family League. If you don’t remember, it’s a showcase league of fantasy industry titans and then me. We’ve got the Athletic, Yahoo, Hashtag, Rotoworld, Rotowire, Old Man Squad, and others that make a ton of great content. […]

Mock drafts are aplenty in this preseason time, and some trends and groupthink are being established. Everyone can talk about who to draft; but is anyone making the worst team you can draft? These aren’t bad picks, per se. You can build with any of these players. But the value, guys, the value is what […]

January 15, 2026 | 2025-26 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Strategy | 2 Commentsby: kelder
I was talking fantasy hoops with my teenage daughter who is awesome and plays in fantasy basketball leagues. The quote, and I’m probably getting the exact words wrong, was “It seems like the injuries have slowed down a bit, right?” She laughed and laughed. Of course, her team has Ja Morant, Jo’el Embiid, and LaMelo […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? A Review Of Yahoo High Score
November 13, 2025 | 2025-26 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Buy/Sell |by: kelder
I had no intention of doing that new Yahoo fantasy game called High Score. Like at all. I don’t like new things and this is a new thing. At age 48, this old dog was out of new tricks. Then I got a DM from Dan Titus, the NBA fantasy guy who writes for Yahoo, […]

We’re now at the 10-game mark, a time and place where numbers start getting real, and y’all know what happens when we keep it real in Fantasy Basketball… I’m actually not sure, so you’ll have to let me know. In the mean time, we’ll keep it the literal real, in that, we’re gonna take what’s […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Two nights in, and there’s already an ancient truth coming-out party. It has been the same since the days of the Aztecs, where they played that crazy game where they shot a ball through a ring and the losing team died. In that game, as in the NBA, the bad players just don’t get that […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Dan Titus and I put together this league. Titus gave me a legitimate name to float, and we got a lot of sharp analysts (and then myself) into the annual Y! Friends and Family League. (I am old and am currently trying to figure out how to make it viewable. It should be at https://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/League/friendsandfamily2025) […]

September 30, 2025 | 2025-26 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Strategy |by: kelder
Minutes are the lifeblood of fantasy hoops. You can’t score, rebound, or block anything from the bench, and every year depth charts shake out in ways that make or break fantasy squads. This series is all about opportunity: who’s getting run, who’s losing it, and which “next man up” might sneak into your waiver wire […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? Rotation Notes: Giddey For Your Thoughts
November 23, 2024 | 2024-25 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Buy/Sell | 3 Commentsby: kelder
Chicago: Josh Giddey is rapidly falling out of favor with Chicago and if you can get something for him, I would try to do that thing. He’s not closing games even though he’s starting them. Against Milwaukee he totaled 24 minutes and did very little except get called out by Doris Burke for lack of […]
