Caris LeVert Scores 15 Points In 16 Minutes In Season Debut

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Caris LeVert made his season debut on Saturday, doing some microwave scoring in a 97-94 loss to Toronto with 15 points in 16 minutes.

Domantas Sabonis Leads The Way For Pacers

Terance Mann (SF, LAC): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 30% of leagues ANALYSIS: There is nothing to like about Kawhi Leonard's missing time while he recovers from a devasting ACL injury. Nothing, except the fact that his absence has opened the door for some guys in the Clips rotation to log bulkier minutes this season. Enter […]

Cam Reddish (SG/SF, ATL): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 53% of leagues ANALYSIS: No, the Hawks won't ever win the Luka trade. BUT. The Hawks came out very nicely off that deal all things considered. One reason why (not the main one; read: Trae Young) is Cam Reddish progression and evolution as a player since he […]

Hassan Whiteside (PF/C, UTA): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 34% of leagues ANALYSIS: If you're a hater by nature, odds are you're not going to ever roster, let alone start Hassan Whiteside in any of your fantasy teams for the remainder of his career. If you're a savvy and avid and smart veteran fantasy player you […]

Derrick Rose (PG/SG, NYK): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 57% of leagues ANALYSIS: I'm going a little bit over my self-imposed 50% rostership-threshold with this WW target, I know. But men are weak, I guess. See, the only thing keeping Rose from being an absolute monster is the presence of Kemba Walker in Manhattan. Last season, […]

Carmelo Anthony (SF/PF, LAL): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues ANALYSIS: Remember when Melo got signed by Oklahoma City a few years ago, and a media member asked him if he was going to come off the bench? You might not remember the question but surely remember the answer: "Ayo P, they say I […]

Kevin Love (PF/C, CLE): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of leagues ANALYSIS: Kevin Love and the Cavs have played six games through Friday. Love is one of the highest fantasy-point scorers coming off the pine in the L on a per-minute basis. And that is even while stinking in a few of the games played […]

Grayson Allen (SG/SF, MIL): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 29% of leagues ANALYSIS: I made Grayson one of my most-discussed WW targets for the 2021 season. I kicked off this year's WW posts with an entry about him. And one week later, at this very moment and with no ending point in sight, I keep and […]

Tyrese Maxey (PG/SG, PHI): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 56% of leagues ANALYSIS: We're clearly stepping out of the 50%-rostership box here, but you better bear with me. In fact, don't even care about that now, and instead rush to your WW to see if you can still find Maxey there available for free, add him, […]

Franz Wagner (SG/SF, ORL): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 43% of leagues ANALYSIS: Shouts out to the Wagner fam for putting a couple of kids in the Association--on the same squad, no least! Franz, the rook and younger of the two, has been the true stud of the two so far this season and has had […]

Eric Gordon (SG/SF, HOU): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of leagues ANALYSIS: This is a fantastic play for everyone out there. Do you like the current, Rockets-Gordon? Got you. Do you like the future, Contending-Team-Gordon? Gotcha too. Whether you are targeting Eric G for now, or for later, the vet should be good enough for […]

Alex Caruso (PG/SG, CHI): Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 45% of leagues ANALYSIS: Shout-out to the Bald Mamba doing it out there in Chi-Town! Five games into the season, Caruso has already established himself as the backup point of the squad covering for Lonzo Ball's resting minutes daily, and the truth is that even though Caruso […]

Nikola Jokic Probable On Saturday

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (knee) is listed as probable for Saturday's clash against the Timberwolves. On Tuesday, the reigning MVP bruised his right knee after colliding with Rudy Gobert during the matchup against the Jazz. Still, he managed to suit up on Friday against Luka Doncic and the Mavericks to finish with 16 rebounds, […]

Mike Conley Won't Play On Saturday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (knee) won't suit up against the Bulls on Saturday. With the team playing the front half of back-to-back outings, the 34-year-old will get the night off to rest his right knee. As a result, Joe Ingles should automatically show up on the radar as a viable DFS value option, with […]
