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 […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Here is the first article in what I hope to make a series, the Fantasy Basketball News Roundup. Once a week, we get some storylines and then explore how they affect your plans for fantasy. Here we go! Mark Williams went down again, this time with a shoulder. I’m as shocked as you. Just when […]

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 […]

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) […]

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 […]

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 […]

At around 15 games in, we currently stand just shy of the 20% mark of the 2024-2025 NBA season. Can you believe it? A mere 15 games ago — 4 weeks! — everyone assumed the very best of their favorite team and its players. Hope sprang eternal across the NBA and its fanbases. Even 76ers […]

Ossie returns from the IL to join Joel and the duo kick off the show discussing the surprisingly bright future in Portland and the predictably grim state of affairs for the Bucks. After considering the prospect of trading away Giannis Antetokounmpo (don’t do it…yet. Maybe. Unless…), the pair examine the development of three Jalens (Williams, […]
