Tuesday Pickups: Fantasy Basketball Adds for 12/31

  • By Paul Williamson

    Last Updated on January 1, 2025 10:33 am by Paul Williamson | Published: January 1, 2025

    Fantasy managers who need to stream a spot have plenty of options day in and day out in this league as injured players come and go and rotations continue to fluctuate as a result. Tonight, there is a decent slate of six games with plenty of players that are under rostered and could be up for grabs in your league. Let me help you figure who is worth a look.

    NOTE: There are some ‘deep league’ options that may have standard league value, so keep any eye out for those dudes.

    Standard Leagues

    (<50% rostered on Yahoo)

    Mike Conley (45% rostered)

    Tonight’s game: 23 minutes, 16 points (5-of-10 FG, 2-of-2 FT), four triples, four assists, two steals. 

    It is very odd to have a name like Conley’s qualify for an article like this one, but enough people have jumped ship that he might be available. He is just one year removed from providing top-75 9-cat value and has been barely 12-team viable this year. If he is available (and you can take/don’t care about the FG% hit), he is still a good source of triples, dimes and steals.

    Lu Dort (22% rostered)

    Tonight’s game: 35 minutes, 14 points (5-of-12 FG), four triples, six rebounds. 

    While the steals have disappeared the last four or five games, he has been snagging boards and hitting threes (though a bit inconsistent) and I would imagine the steals will find their way back. Managers targeting 3-and-D off the wire can do worse than Dort.

    Paul Williamson

    I grew up in Crosby, TX, just about 30 minutes east of Houston, TX. Yes, I am a major Houston Astros fan, and love my Texans and Rockets.

    I graduated Crosby High School in 2006 (Go Coogs!) and attended San Jacinto College (Go Gators!) before attending and graduating from Texas Tech in 2012 (Go Tech!). I got my degree in journalism.

    Throughout my academic life I was on some form of debate team, and it was the greatest experience of my academic career.

    Now I couldn’t be more happier. Sports Ethos is allowing to me to live a life long dream: to be a sports writer.
