BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 16% of leagues
ANALYSIS: The Nuggets lost Jerami Grant this past offseason and while JaMychal Green is far from his level of play, the truth is that he's doing more than enough to be considered a viable player for slightly-deep-league fantasy GMs. Green has taken on a secondary, off-the-bench role since signing with Denver and although his usage rates are not mind-blowing he's been rather efficient with his touches.
Green is averaging 21+ MPG this season, with a slightly above-average 22% usage rate. In his eight games played through Thursday, Green is putting up great averages in the points (11.9 PPG), rebounding (7.8 RPG), shooting (57.7 FG%) cats so far. On top of that, he's hit 2+ triples in each game he's played, and three in three of those eight matches.
For someone playing limited minutes and shooting just an average of 8 FGA per game, Green has hit at least 8 pops in every game, and 10+ in six of his eight. He also contributes the odd assist nightly (1.1 APG) and if he could raise his free-throw trips a little bit he would turn into a much more appealing, 12-Team league WW targert.

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.
