In a 9-cat 16 team league. Currently seating nicely in the 2nd spot. The rest of my team is fully healthy (somehow lol) so should I try to upgrade and take a slight hit over the next 3 weeks by trading my LaMarcus Aldridge for John Collins (and the person who has him is in last place lol)?
I'm just a little hesitant because Aldridge is 29th (!!!) on the season due to his percentages and increased blocks. But I am worried he won't get the same production if he's traded.
If your team can stay afloat like it sounds, I THINK Collins can return for top-20 per game value. With his blocks finally back up, if he starts clicking offensively, he’s going to be a monster. He’s back in 2.5 weeks, I’d hold off as long as you can but I would make that deal.
I'd be more worried about Aldridge's shutdown risk than a potential trade. But yeah I'd be in favor of the swap as long as you're able to weather the storm without him.
Yeah that's fair. And frankly, you're probably fine either way. Your FT% will take a hit, but other stuff will get better.
