12 team, head-to-head, 9 cat.

So, I've still got Derrick White in an Injured Reserve spot because I haven't been able to decide who to drop for him yet. Looking for advice on who to cut . . . OR, if I should try to make a 2 for 1 trade to free up a spot for him. Here's my active roster:

Damian Lillard
Kyrie Irving
Gary Harris
Josh Hart
Clint Capela
Taurean Prince
Wendell Carter
Hassan Whiteside
Malcolm Brogdon
Jeremy Lamb
Montrezl Harrell
Danilo Gallinari
Kyle Anderson

I really don't want to drop any of these guys! The only guy I can make a case to myself for is Anderson, solely for the reason that Memphis doesn't have a good fantasy playoff schedule (2-3-4). Hart is maybe another candidate, but he's doing just enough right now to be playable and the upside is too much for me to feel comfortable dropping him. Ditto Lamb.

I do have some strong sell-high candidates in Whiteside, Carter, and Gallinari. Should I try packaging two of those guys for one early-round player, perhaps for a high-assist guy since I'm weak in that category?

So I'm thinking about sending out an offer of Whiteside + Gallinari for John Wall, to an owner who has shown interest in Whiteside and is loaded at PG (and has out-of-position assists in Jokic and Draymond Green, so he might think he can afford to part with Wall). Wizards have a 4-4-4 playoff schedule which makes Wall especially attractive to me. Should I send that proposal?

Not sure anyone wants Josh Hart, given his decreased minutes in the current rotations. He might end up being your drop... just be ready.

Yeah, I hear ya about Hart. It's just that even with his MPG in the low 20s he's still been a top 100 player over the last two weeks. And looking down the road the Lakers have a tasty 4-3-4 sched during the fantasy playoffs, so I don't want to drop him too hastily.

I think I might just sit on my roster for now and let White stew in my IR spot until someone becomes an obvious drop, or I can work out a 2-for-1. If White has some big lines this week I might become more urgent about taking action.
