Veteran Wide Receivers Set to Lose Targets in 2021

As players change teams and rookies are added through the NFL draft, there is a discernable impact on veteran wide receivers, specifically their projected volume.

Dwight Howard (C, PHI): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 21% of leagues ANALYSIS: If Dwight Howard is not the best backup center widely available and with more than a reasonable path to fantasy points these days, then I don't even know... While the Sixers are still pretty much fighting to retain the no. 1 seed from […]

Oshae Brissett (SF/PF, IND): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues ANALYSIS: What a gem did the Pacers found in Oshae Brissett, man. Not surprising, though, considering he's a former Raptor and Toronto development-program alum, and you know how the Raps system pumps out talent on a yearly basis. Brissett's short 2021 NBA run started […]

Daniel Theis (PF/C, CHI): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 47% of leagues ANALYSIS: Daniel Theis was a daily fixture in Boston's starting lineups from the start of the season to the trade deadline. Not because Boston stopped playing him, but rather because they cut ties with him entirely as they moved him to Chicago. Theis then […]

Kyle Kuzma Leads All Scorers In Battle Of Los Angeles

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma scored a game-high 25 points in Thursday's 118-94 loss to the Clippers, taking charge of the offense following Anthony Davis' (ankle) exit from the game after only nine minutes of action.

Trevor Ariza (SG/SF, MIA): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: I might be alone in Ariza's Island, but I'm going to die on it if that's what needs to be done. Ariza is a great player, full stop. Is he going to finish the season as a top-tier player? No. Is he the […]

Khem Birch (PF/C, TOR): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 48% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's a little disappointing to have the Raptors missing on the postseason, even more after they got the chip just two (!) seasons ago, but that's the world we live in, folks. The Raps got a gift in the shape of Khem Birch […]

Frank Jackson (PG, DET): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 27% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Pistons took a flier on Frank Jackson after Oklahoma City cut him on Dec. 21. It took him more than three months to start getting noticed, but once he did (right after the AS break) he just couldn't stop putting on nice […]

Kyle Kuzma (SF/PF, LAL): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 54% of leagues ANALYSIS: If we know something about the Los Angeles Lakers, that is that they are on a very middling run that has them fighting to avoid the play-in due, mostly, to a bunch of injuries hitting them hard during the past few weeks. LeBron […]

Dwight Powell (PF/C, DAL): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 14% of leagues ANALYSIS: Don't look know, but it's been three games in a row (all taking place this month) for Powell hitting 30+ FP every time he's been on the court, and coming off the pine in two of them he's logged back-to-back 27+ minutes of […]

Ty Jerome Scores Team-High 23 Points Thursday Night

Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard Ty Jerome contributed with a team-high 23 points in Thursday's 118-97 loss to Golden State, shooting 8-for-14 from the floor and 3-for-6 from downtown.

RJ Hampton (PG, ORL): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 31% of leagues ANALYSIS: Is there a hotter player in the Association these days? No, seriously. In the month of May, all RJ Hampton has played are three games. The average fantasy tally in those three--coming off the pine!--has amounted to a total of 43 FP in […]

Facundo Campazzo (PG, DEN): Week 20 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 31% of leagues ANALYSIS: At the risk of sounding like a broken record, there is no point in skipping talking about Facundo Campazzo as an absolute steal if you're still managing in a super-long, deep league. Facu has taken the reins of the Nugs since Jamal Murray […]
