Hi Dan 👋
I have a question/dilemma about Mathurin.
In a 10T/9CAT/H2H, I’ve built a team that aims to win PTS, REB, FG%, BLK and TO. Since my roster is filled with PF/C’s with emphasis on REB, FG% and BLK, at first glance Mathurin’s scoring from an SG/SF position seemed like a good fit.
However, his total lack of contribution in any other category relevant to my team makes me wonder if I’m better off just streaming his spot.
- Mathurin: 20 ppg x 4 games/week = 80 pts
- Streaming: Assuming I get 5-6 streamable games per week, I would need on average 13-16 ppg from this streaming spot, which is doable in a 10T.
Do you think Mathurin is droppable in my build? I’m also contemplating trading Mathurin for someone like Josh Hart and his out-of-position rebounding, but then I fear I’ll run into a PPG problem (Gobert & Hart). Herro would be nice, but may be too pricy. Ivey + Mathurin for Herro, perhaps?
Thank you, Dan! 🙏
So, as you note he's really only useful in 1 of the categories you're targeting. I think I'd just be willing to sacrifice a few weekly points to shore up the other categories. This is assuming your team is already pretty strong in PPG with or without him...
