BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 37% of leagues
ANALYSIS: After starting in back-to-back games on March 14 and 16, Moses Brown went back to ride the pine on Thursday night. That's not entirely a problem, assuming he can at least keep up the production he played at when he started for the Thunder before that. Brown is far from a league-winning asset, mind you, but he should definitely be on the radar of fantasy GMs managing in the deepest of leagues, something his high rostership already speaks about.
Although he played a few games during the month of January, Brown was out of OKC's rotation until after the break. From that moment on, though, he's played all team games, averaged 25 MPG, and started in two of those five occasions to great success. In those two starts, Brown put up 13-4-1-1-1 and 20-16 (with 5 blocks) lines, which are the most you can ask him for if we're realistic. Since March 11 Brown is putting up an above-average 1.05 FP/min, making him a really efficient player to consider adding to your roster.
Brown's last game at the time of this writing, on Thursday against Atlanta, looked more like a fluke than anything else. He shot just 29% from the floor on 7 FGA, hit 1-of-2 freebies, yet he kept up with 4 boards, a steal, and a block. If the shooting comes back (and it should, because Brown is a classic, non-floor-stretching big), then he should be dropping his customary 10 pops a night. That's what you'll get in Brown: 10-5 lines to go with a bunch of swats and super high FG% thanks to his shooting profile.

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.
