Otto is dropped by an impatient owner in my league. I got #1 wavier priority. Thad Young and load management have me worried. But i'll claim him anyway - think he's a top 80 floor.

My cut candidate:
Marcus Smart (1.8 steal can be replaced by Otto)
Dwight Powell (not sure about his playing time or role going forward)
Nunn (same as above)
TJ Warren (sucks rite now)
Danny Green (volatile/inconsistent)

thanks in adv.

I'd be happy dropping any of those guys for Porter.
Right now I'd probably say Warren.

thanks David. Warren really awful in the first two games. So many empty boxes in a hollow line with all the minutes given. I doubt his role won't be as good as he was in Phoenix. I'd rather own/play Danny Green.

I'm a big fan of Danny. He'll get you blocks too.

I might consider a Nunn drop but I also really want to see what Miami looks like with freakin' Butler around.

As someone who took Otto pretty early (around B150 ranking), I really hope he gets it together and does not have something nagging for a long time. We need an Otto solidarity thread.

Thanks Dan. Nunn is almost too good to drop at this point. Jimmy’s return will hurt his value but he still looks like heat’s second best scoring option. Herro plays poor defense and they’ve lost a defensive player in JJ. Also Spo says Nunn will stick to the starting lineup. That’s a slight advantage over Herro. I can see them use Nunn/Jimmy/Jones/Winslow/Bam to close the game, due to defense intensity.

I end up dropping Danny Green at the same day Powell off IL.

TJ’s ceiling is higher than Danny. Nunn stays fantasy relevant even when Jimmy’s return. Otto may have a hip injury behind him but it’s a long season. Can’t pass top 40 talent for the past 3 years!
