I'm in a 9 cat H2H. With the recent news of Holmes close to a return i was wondering who to drop? I also have Barton on my IL that i have to bring into my lineup in order to do any pickups so i have to drop 2 players. I do have Bjelica which i would drop for Holmes? How about my other spot? I'm weak in block/3's/FG which Holmes would help me in those minus the 3's. I would be stacked with PF/C which may be a bad thing because of the limited spots to start players. Drop Chriss? Drop Rose/Morant? Harrell? All of these guys have been playing pretty good. I just don't know
My team:
Doncic
Leonard
Wiggins
Harrell
Sabonis
Chriss
Wood
T. Harris
Morant
D. Rose
N. Bjelica
M. Beasley
Adams
Gasol (IL)
Would have to be Bjelicia wouldn't it with Holmes back or will the voodoo doll live on...
Which recent news are you talking about he hasn't started training yet. I've held him since feb 11 hanging on to every bit of news when hes back....last news was wednesday no timetable for return
yeah i'd likely drop rose
This report came out yesterday about Holmes and it could mean anything
Voice of the Kings Grant Napear said on Twitter that he expects Richaun Holmes (right shoulder strain) back, "This coming week if I had to guess."
The team is yet to announce any official updates or timetables after saying Holmes would be re-evaluated in 2-3 weeks on February 11. For what it's worth, Napear also said during the Kings' broadcast that he watched Richaun Holmes (right shoulder strain) go through a vigorous workout prior to the game, dunking and shooting threes, and that he looks like he is close to getting back. Although Holmes may not be inserted into the starting lineup right away, make sure he is not floating around any waiver wires as it looks like he might be back just in time for the fantasy playoffs.

Injury news of of SAC Town has been garbage. I’m not believing anything until I see Holmes on the court, and even then, I wouldn’t preemptively cut anyone until you’ve seen how Holmes looks on the court and what his minutes (possibly restricted) look like.
You absolutely don’t drop Morant. And I would also be holding tight to Montrez and Chriss. If anyone has to go, it’s Rose, but again, you have no reason to cut anyone until Holmes is actually playing and playing well.
Agree with Caineghis
