Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 5: Naz Reid, JaVale McGee, Dwight Powell, Alec Burks

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 […]

Frank Kaminsky (C, PHO): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 35% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Tank named Frank is most definitely not the guy predestined to win you the league, no matter the format. That said, though, Kaminsky is doing his best to hand his fantasy GMs some goodies on a daily basis. Not a single […]

Furkan Korkmaz (SG/SF, PHI): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Sixers got absolutely demolished by COVID-19 related stuff during the past few days/week with all of Joel Embiid, Tobias Harris, and Matisse Thybulle missing time. Enter your winner of the season so far precisely because of that, guard/forward/wing Furkan Korkmaz, he […]

Alex Caruso (PG/SG, CHI): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 50% of leagues ANALYSIS: I don't Alex Caruso is ever going to reach some unreasonably high rostership in any sort of fantasy league. That's obviously because of 1) his role as a bench player in a loaded Chicago offense, 2) his own limited offensive numbers and […]

Otto Porter Jr. (SF/PF, GSW): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: Before we get this thing started let me warn you about Otto Porter Jr.'s health and the potential of him missing games or being limited at least for the next few days. Just check an eye on his status as he got […]

Naz Reid (C, MIN): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: Other than recently-acquired Taurean Prince, no other meaningful Wolves' big man is even 24 years old. That, of course, includes Naz Reid. And Reid, of course, has been a super-sub for Minny this season as he's playing really low minutes on a […]

Gary Payton II (PG/SG, GSW): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: The upside is limited, and the availability/playing time will definitely go down as the season grows older. But hey, we have reached a point where GP2 is probably at the peak of his talents and fantasy value so it makes sense to […]

Eric Bledsoe (PG/SG, LAC): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS: In any other season, or in an injury-disabled sort of 2K-simulated league, Eric Bledsoe would probably be coming off the pine for the L.A. Clippers. Not this season, though, and not for the Kawhi-less Clips. Not only is Bledsoe starting games at […]

Derrick Rose (PG/SG, NYK): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 58% of leagues ANALYSIS: Derrick Rose and Tom Thibodeau, match made in heaven. I know the rostership is nearing 60% and that's a no-no for the WW column, but I just couldn't resist the urge. Rose started the season nicely, then came crashing down to Earth […]

Devin Vassell (SG/SF, SAS): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Spurs are definitely rebuilding. It doesn't take a genius to decipher their current operating algorithm. Just look at Devin Vassell's jump up in minutes per game (from 17 to 26) from last season to this his second one, and you'll get […]

Matisse Thybulle (SG/SF, PHI): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 47% of leagues ANALYSIS: As ridiculous (but gratifying) as it is, nobody seems to be discussing anything related to the infamous COVID-19 virus these days when it comes to it in relation to the Association. About damn time, man. That doesn't mean COVID has kept from […]

NextGen Stats - Quarterback Breakdowns and Takeaways

We're past Week 9 already and entering the home stretch of the season, which means you will be fighting harder than ever to procure that sweet playoff spot. And knowing the importance of having a solid quarterback in your lineups (or two, if you are part of a 2QB/Super-FLEX league!), it's only right we highlight […]

Elijah Moore (WR, NYJ) - Fantasy Football Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It took fantasy GMs all of one game--on Thursday Night Football, so the first to come on Week 9--to find the best WR of the week. Yes, I'm talking about Elijah Moore, and I feel for those GMs out there desperate for […]

Nyheim Hines (RB, IND) - Fantasy Football Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 53% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I know I'm breaking the 50-percent-tops-rostership rule, but this well merits it. If only because of what is going on with Nyheim Hines this season in the fantasy world. No, I'm not talking about some of the shaky outings he's been through, […]

Baker Mayfield (QB, CLE) - Fantasy Football Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 37% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We're still stuck in the middle of the Bye-week portion of the season. While it is true that we're entering Week 10 and that not a single quarterback staying off the schedule is that great, if you're playing the QB-streaming game there are […]

Rashod Bateman (WR, BAL) - Fantasy Football Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It feels like I've been hearing about Sammy Watkins' upcoming return for three months already. Yikes. It's cool, guys, it's cool. We know he is (is he, though?) coming, yes, but that doesn't mean he will displace rookie WR Rashod Bateman has […]

Donovan Peoples-Jones (WR, CLE) - Fantasy Football Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After the events that took place last week, this is now far from a desperate WW target and addition. The Browns finally moved on from Odell Beckham Jr. after they opted not to trade him prior to the deadline and he […]

Devonta Freeman (RB, BAL) - Fantasy Football Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I truly don't know if you can mess around with a backfield as much as the Ravens have done through the 2021 season of our Lord. As many as six rushers have featured for Baltimore, with their touches ranging between two (Trenton […]

Teddy Bridgewater (QB, DEN) - Fantasy Football Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Not going to happen, but if the NFL declared the season over this very day, Teddy Bridgwater would finish as almost a QB1 through nine weeks of play. He ranks QB14 in total FP at this point, which you probably don't believe, but's it's […]

Mark Ingram II (RB, NO) - Fantasy Football Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Let's make things clear over here. Mark Ingram's spell in Houston: not very bueno. Mark Ingram's come back to New Orleans: fantastic if only because of the good old times! Now, don't get that wrong because Ingram and the Saints are what […]
