is there any hope for george hill. I've held so far because he has top 70 upside, but its getting tough.
What are your thoughts on OG Anunoby in keeper leagues? Worth holding throughout the season?
I have been tracking Chandler Parsons whose minutes seem to be creeping in the right direction averaging 22m in the past 5 games. Would you drop Olynk for Parsons in an 8cat format? Olynk minutes seem to be regressing.
Hope? Yes. Is he someone to count on? No. If Hill gets healthy he can put up those top 70 numbers you are hoping for, but if he does manage to do so for any extended period of time (2 weeks or more) I'd look to immediately sell high. On the other hand, if he sustains an injury that is more significant than day to day, I'd drop him. For now, in a 12 team league, he's a decent player in your last or second to last spot.
thanks re george hill. i didnt know he was injured.
will justin holiday ever hit 40% fg percent on the season?
OG in keeper leagues depends a lot on your rules, but he does appear to have a bright future (in real life and fantasy). He has a Terrence Ross-esque stat profile, with poor FT%. Theoretically, that can be improved on with practice. Unless you are in a 14 team league or deeper, I don't think he will give you good value this season, but may be worth holding in a keeper league depending on your keeper rules.
I'm OK with dropping KO, but Parsons.. eh. The upside is certainly there, but I don't trust Parsons to stay healthy. If you do grab him, he's someone that will have more trade value than the typical pick up if he gets hot, so he does have that going for him. Who else is on the wire?
It's a 16 team 9-cat keeper league with up to eight keepers allowed. Thanks!
Rank these centers, 9 CAT H2H:
Alex Len, KOlynyk, WCS, Holmes
I know there’s the sooner rather than later quote, but what if anything can you tell us Kawhi holders? Was offered Marc Gasol for Kawhi today in a points league, which Gasol is a monster in. I’m contemplating as I need W’s. Are we thinking December now for Leonard? Thanks Hank
1. Len
2. Holmes (if you are in a weekly league, you could argue him at 1 on the list)
3. KO
4. WCS
We're all in the same boat as far as guessing when Kawhi will be back. By chance, do you know Gasol and Kawhi's final finish in your league last season? If you were in a straight 9 cat league I would advise against, but I'm not sure on your league's rules.
What are your thoughts on the current Richaun Holmes woes? He helped me out a lot after the break last season and I was high into him coming into this season, but I'm really worried about Amir Johnson's presence. Holmes seems to be healthy now but he's barely getting any run even when he should have the chance to. I'm wondering if Amir's dumb $11 million one-year contract has something to do with his playing time as the second center behind Embiid. Holmes has tremendous upside but I can't really afford to hold him for that upside if it won't come to fruition until after all star break.
I could drop him for Monroe in one of my leagues, though Monroe's low upside bothers me too.
