Here are the top pickup options from a busy Saturday slate! There wasn’t a ton of needle-movement, but you can always find someone ready to give your roster a lift.

Standard Leagues

(<50% rostered on Yahoo)

Bilal Coulibaly, SG/SF, WAS (48% rostered)

Tonight: 35 minutes, 20 points (7-of-14 FG, 5-of-7 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists, three steals, one block, one 3-pointer

Analysis: What are you waiting for?

Cole Anthony, PG, ORL  (3% rostered)

Tonight: 28 minutes, 35 points (13-of-25 FG, 7-for-7 FT), eight rebounds, nine assists, one steal, one block, two 3-pointers

Analysis: No Jalen Suggs, no Paolo Banchero, no Franz Wagner. The Magic need scoring in the absolute worst way right now and Anthony is the only guy on the roster capable of filling that void. He’s not a total green light just yet given that he basically split minutes with Cory Joseph tonight, but Anthony should be playing more going forward after a night like this. If you need points, he’s absolutely worth a lottery ticket.

Scottie Pippen Jr., PG/SG, MEM (17% rostered)

Tonight: 33 minutes, 22 points (9-of-12 FG, 1-of-3 FT), five rebounds, nine assists, two steals, three treys

Analysis: Start him whenever Ja Morant is out.
