NBA Waiver Wire: Deep League Options (Week 5)

Many a man, nay, many a soul have chosen poorly during their fantasy drafts. The last few picks are always a gamble. If we don't like the initial hand luckily we can fold and get another one, from the waiver wire that is. The deeper and more competitive your league is the less chance there […]
