Thursday Pickups: Fantasy Basketball Adds for 12/5

  • By Mark C

    Last Updated on December 6, 2024 2:25 am by André Lemos | Published: December 6, 2024

    Welcome to Thursday Night Pickups: Fantasy Basketball Adds for 12/5! We got a good-sized night after a bit off an off day following NBA Cup Tuesday. Without further ado, let’s get to it!

    Standard Leagues

    (<50% rostered on Yahoo)

    Caris LeVert, G/F, CLE (19% rostered)

    Tonight: 26 minutes, 21 points (7-of-11 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), five triples, three boards, six assists, one steal.

    Analysis: LeVert has been red-hot for the season. With all the additional categories that he chips in with, it’s actually hard to believe he’s only at 19% rostered. Isaac Okoro also left with injury, so that adds yet another reason why you should add LeVert. You should feel comfortable with his assists, and everything else is a bonus.

    Mark C

    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.
