BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues
ANALYSIS: The Suns relied heavily on Cameron Johnson for a stretch earlier this season. It happened back in mid-to-late January when Cam started nine consecutive games averaging a massive 31 MPG for Phoenix. That ended there and Johnson has been back riding the pine since Feb. 5 to last Thursday when he played in Phoenix last game to this date against the Clips.
Cam Johnson didn't play any game from Mar. 2 to Mar. 21, but since the latter date he's been on the court 11 times while averaging 21 MPG and 15+ FPG. Nothing mindblowing, but nothing too bad for those managing in super deep leagues this season. Johnson has his upside mostly coming from the points/threes categories, although he knows how to steal a rock and his rebounding isn't bad.
Johnson's shooting percentage is up to 49% from the floor on 6+ FGA in the last six games and has scored 6+ points in each of those matches with 11+ points in three of them. Also in the same span, Cam has hit at least 2 treys in each of those games, with three of them reaching 3 3PM. Forget the idea of been adding a league-winning player in Cam, but if you need points/treys/FG%, and even low TOs in 9-cat leagues, you can do much worse than getting shares of Johnson.

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 […]

Immanuel Quickley (PG, NYK): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
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 […]
