Three-Man Weave: Fantasy Basketball Dumpster Divers

Unlike fantasy football, where there's more potential value found with high scoring teams, in fantasy basketball you can find value anywhere...even in the dump.

Jahlil Okafor has finally been released from his Philadelphia nightmare and is on his way to join the Brooklyn Nets.

NBA Roster Doctor: Crne Vrane Doesn't Need Many Assists

Fantasy basketball strategy doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Some decisions are easy – if they offer you James Harden for your Aaron Gordon, you take it and run, you don’t need anyone to tell you that.
