Sweet Lou is underperforming. FG% and steal pretty bad so far this season. I know he'll turn it around if any of Bradley/Gallo/bev is hurt, which is very likely. But my question is: Is he droppable in 12-team, 9-Cat league? Assuming my team is already good in FT% and he's not helping much elsewhere.
He's playing 7 minutes per game fewer than last year, so yeah, unless someone gets hurt it's going to be difficult for him to get up to last year's averages in steals and threes. If you don't currently have a streaming spot and he truly is the worst player on your roster, then yeah, I guess you could drop him and use his spot to stream or pick up someone who meets your team's needs better. He's going to get claimed by someone in your league though, so once you drop him it's likely you're not going to see him again, and you'll just have to live with it if Gallo gets hurt and Lou goes on a run like last year (which as you acknowledge he's fully capable of doing).
I like Lou's offensive game in real life as he draws so much attention like Harden, but defensively he's a liability so Doc may not give him starters minutes as they already got offensive weapons like Gallo and Tobias. Yeh Gallo is probably one of the least durable players in the league. I'll just keep him and hope his slump is over soon.
Yeah, I don't think he's a drop for the chance he goes big. Maybe someone in your league is interested in him as a flier grab in a trade? You'd have to be aiming for a top-100 guy coming back, though.
