BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 48% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Let's forget that putrid Thursday game against Milwaukee. Okay. Now, let's start writing about Danny Green. Green has been the starting forward of the (check numbers) no. 1 team in the East all year long. That's not bad for a start. Green is playing 28+ MGP on the season, and although he's not obviously commanding a high number of shots and chances (13% usage rate) with Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons around, he's still playing nicely and putting up good numbers.
Danny's a machine from beyond the three-point line, that's for sure. Guy's hitting 2.5 3PG and has scored at least 2 three-pointers in all but two games played in April (in 11 games played and counting, that is). Not only that, but Green is also pulling down a good 4+ RPG, dishing out 2 APG, and perhaps most importantly due to the scarcity stealing 1.2+ balls a game and swatting almost a shot nightly.
You can forget about Green handing you goodies in terms of freebies, high field-goal attempts on great percentages, or nice efficiency. He plays a ton, but it is not that he gets all of the balls we'd love him to. Even then, though, the high minutage enables him to have a baseline of around 10-4-2-1 every day to go with great three-point numbers. Prior to the dud against Milwaukee, he had strung three matches at 31+ FP with fantasy scores reaching 38, 31, and 33 FP. Must-add in deep formats ROS.

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 24: Isaac Okoro, Kris Dunn, Josh Richardson, Corey Kispert, Delon Wright
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: 16% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Hawks are currently the 10th seed in the East but are also tied for 8th and 9th with Brooklyn and Charlotte respectively.

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 […]
