I could really use your guys advice. So I have the 3rd priority in the waiver claim and Clint Capela was just dropped. I think I have a good chance to claim him, but I’m not sure who to drop. In addition, there are also several other FA options that are still available.

 

5 FA’s of Interest

  1. Clint Capela (C)
  2. Luguentz Dort (SG/SF)
  3. Keldon Johnson (SF)
  4. Harrison Barnes (SF/PF)
  5. Mason Plumlee (PF/C)

 

My Team (10 Team, H2H/13 Categories, Currently in 6th Place)

  • (PG) Damian Lillard
  • (PG) Mike Conley
  • (PG) Darius Garland
  • (PG) Dennis Schroder
  • (PG/SG) Jrue Holiday
  • (SG/SF) Kawhi Leonard
  • (SG/SF) Gordon Hayward
  • (SF/PF) Kyle Anderson
  • (PF/C) LaMarcus Aldridge
  • (PF/C) Kevin Love (INJ - in IL Spot)
  • (PF/C) Julius Randle
  • (PF/C) Al Horford
  • (PF/C) Chris Boucher
  • (C) Nikola Vucevic

 

Is there anyone you would you add or drop from this team or would you just hold? Thanks and really appreciate your input!

You probably dont want do it but Aldridge is finished imo been watching their games he not getting the ball in the spots he used to and age is catching him. Your team is great not sure you'll be in 6th long.

I dont think I would drop aldridge. He's old but not worse than your FA list, if anything, pair up 2 players and try to get 1 better player. You'll need some open spots at the end of your roster to stream hot free agents (a la keldon johnson or capela). There's not enough time to pull off a trade to make room for capela now, but I think I would drop boucher for keldon or capela.

@jessenguyen Honestly, thank you so much for your advice. I was leaning towards what you’re suggesting. My only question is, what if Boucher goes off tonight???

@melmckinn We'll see but I dont see Boucher going off vs embiid and howard tonight. Not his kind of game.

In a 10teamer, Boucher isn’t a must-hold guy, and will be a bumpy ride for him if his minutes aren’t consistent.

Capela might be boring, but he’s a reliable double-double with good blocks and great FG. 

Bye bye, Bobby Boucher.

@capt-caineghis Thanks for the advice. I was able to claim Capela off waivers while dropping Boucher and I couldn’t be happier. Seems like this year will be full on panic mode where really good players just get dropped, or maybe its just my league. Much appreciated again!
