I'm with you. Whiteside was my drop last night in one of my leagues where I needed another player for today. In fact, Poeltl was my pickup, though that's in a H2H category league where I'm tied in blocks going into the last day of the matchup. Don't know that Poeltl is the best choice for a points format, but I guess it depends on your league's scoring system and who else is available.

I know. The thing is whiteside is capable of very good games, however, Spo doesnt like him apparently. Poeltl is not the greatest player, but seems consistent on points format, Thats all i ask at this point

Yeah, Whiteside can be so maddening to own. It actually looked for a while like he was going to thrive in that ~20 minute bench role, but then he gets yanked around with these five-minute games, and you're right, that's just too risky to roll with in the H2H playoff season. A plodder like Poeltl probably is a safer play at this point. Good luck!

Yeah Whiteside is an easy drop. Just don't be suckered in if he pops off once or twice.
