10 team 8 cat punting 3s.

I have an offer in front of me that I'm considering accepting but im hesitant in trading away Embiid.

My embiid and Otto for Durant.

Should I take this? I'd pick up Lamb/Anderson

My team is loaded with quality centres:

Embiid
KAT
Kawhi
Vucevic
Cp3
Millsap
Covington
Otto
JJJ
Ibaka
Siakam
Payton
Rubio
Gary Harris

Thanks

Embiid is great in that build but Durant is exceptional, while Otto loses value. I'd make the move. Great build for Anderson too; hopefully he's still available to pick up.

Yeah, you kinda gotta get the top-5 guy whenever you can.

Why is this a no brainer?

TS is punting 3s, so Durant loses more value. Boogie being back might slightly diminish KD numbers, which would make KD/Embiid very even.

So in terms of overall value, TS is giving up Otto for free... Am I missing something?

8 cat with 3PM turned off, Durant is the #2 player on a per-game basis (using the ranking tool at Hashtag Basketball). Embiid also gains in that build (#5) but still lags behind. Otto loses a lot of value in 8 cat, and in a 10 team league with a guy like Slow-Mo available (who's great in a punt-threes build) it's a fine deal.

That's a really good team so i don't think it will matter what you do to be honest. The other members of your league must be useless to let you draft that team.
