Pickups of the Night 2/1: Paul Reed Season?

  • By Mark C

    Last Updated on February 2, 2024 9:58 am by Keith Cork | Published: February 2, 2024

    Even with a small four-game slate, there is still plenty to talk about. Lots of teams were dealing with a slew of injuries tonight, meaning we saw some players emerge with fantasy lines. Let’s get into them!

    Standard Leagues

    (<50% rostered on Yahoo)

    Jalen Smith, F/C, Pacers

    Tonight: 24 minutes, 20 points (9-11 FG, 0-for-1 FT), two triples, nine rebounds, two steals, two blocks

    Smith has slotted into a decent-sized backup role. Even in just under 20 minutes per game, he has an intriguing fantasy game. He can run hold or cold, so just be aware you’ll sometimes catch games like this or sometimes you’ll get some zeros. Still, it makes him worth a low-end look in standard leagues.

    Paul Reed, F/C, Sixers

    Tonight: 28 minutes, seven points (3-of-9 FG, 1-of-1 FT), 10 boards, four dimes, a steal, two blocks

    With Joel Embiid’s season in jeopardy due to a meniscus injury, Reed needs to be added everywhere. The scoring will come and go, but his defensive playmaking ability and rebounds make for a solid player on any squad.

    The FantasyPass isn’t just for drafts anymore! This year, take your team to the next level with in-season TOOLS like Head-to-Head Matchups and Dynamic Daily/Weekly Projections, Q&A SESSIONS, SCHEDULE ANALYSIS, PICKUP ADVICE and more… starting at just $6/month!

    After years of playing redraft fantasy basketball leagues with my friends, I branched out to dynasty leagues. As my hunger for competitive leagues grew, I found myself having lengthy conversations in various forums and developing my own thoughts on rookies and veteran players alike. Among the dynasty community, I found a gap in understanding on-court play and valuing transactions properly and thought to myself “I have a lot to say that could help dynasty managers!” I eventually came onto Sports Ethos as the Dynasty Lead, producing Dynasty Fantasy Basketball content such as rankings, rookie profiles, and other sorts of articles to enable managers to make informed decisions on their own squads. I pride myself in marrying on-court NBA and fantasy basketball analysis, giving readers and listeners of my content a holistic knowledge base of not only dynasty basketball projects but also the NBA itself.
