How do you value Kristaps versus Ben Simmons in deep 16 Team 9CAT H2H? I have Kristaps and the Simmons owner has made me a straight up offer. I also have Jokic and Capela so I’d still be ok at Center. My biggest weakness is at SF. Obviously this year Kristaps is a no brainer it’s the long term look I’m interested in.
Simmons is really growing on me. The numbers he's putting up as a "rookie" are crazy. I think I'd take him.
I’m also concerned that it’s more or less been admitted Kristaps will need offseason elbow surgery already. Knicks will likely shut him down at some point.
I'm thinking that too, but he could be fine for next year. Even if the elbow isn't a big deal, guys of his build are pretty prone to injury. How long do you get to keep him?
Forever
I don't trust Kristaps at all. He hit a wall his first two seasons, and I think he hits one again this year. Great first half player, he hasn't proven himself as a sustainable player in dynasty yet.
