BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 19% of leagues
ANALYSIS: First things first: move on from targeting Maxi Kleber if you're not part of a deep fantasy league. Kleber is not starting for the Mavs these days, and that is with Kristaps Porzingis out healing an injury. When KP comes back, Kleber's upside will be cut in half of what already is. That being said, though, Kleber could be a nice bench-asset for needy GMs in 14+ Team leagues.
Even coming off the pine on a nightly basis, Kleber is still playing a healthy dose of 22.4 MPG. Obviously, his usage rate is still a mediocre 10.2 because the Mavs second unit features the likes of Jalen Brunson, Trey Burke, and Willie Cauley-Stein, and they are often finishing offensive possessions. Kleber has, though, been able to keep up a relatively nice 7-4-1-1 average line in which the best has come from a 1.8 3PM per game average.
For a big man like Klebler, attempting 3.8 3PA a game is no joke, and hitting 1.8 of those is quite nice to see. Kleber is holding 45/47/100 shooting splits through his five games, and also brings blocking upside with 0.8 BPG.

The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 48% of leagues ANALYSIS: If we use common basketball sense, then the New York Knicks and Coach Thibs should try and see what the young guys such as Immanuel Quickley have in them and what they can provide the franchise with ROS, as the NYK are […]
Deni Avdija (SG/SF, WAS): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 37% of leagues ANALYSIS: One would reasonably think that a player seeing a playing-time boost such as that of Deni Avdija's this month would make said player drop his efficiency numbers. Well, not the case for the Wiz Wing by the looks of it. Avdija has […]
