BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues
ANALYSIS: How many more times are you going to make me write a post about Brandon Clarke, seriously? It's been a good bunch of weeks in a row now, and although fantasy GMs finally broke the 50%-threshold when it came to rostering this young man, that figure still feels rather low for the contributions this guy is giving Memphis and GMs through the 2022 season. Find a spot for Clarke in your lineup because you won't regret it any time soon, folks.
Is Clarke ever going to start a game for Memphis? I mean he did for a day back on Jan. 14, yes, but odds are he won't see a starting call any time soon... yet he doesn't need it! Clarke is playing his low-yet-steady 23 MPG since flipping the calendar page to the year 2022 a couple of months ago. He's posting über-efficient fantasy scores that have him averaging a ridiculous 1.20 FP/min (league average 0.90) in the past 23 games, and an even better 1.30 mark in the past eight (all of them played in February). That's a per-minute stud right there.
Clarke is averaging a 13-8-2-1-1 solid line in February and has yet to finish a game in single-digit scoring figures this month. Of course, he's not going to stretch the floor at all, so forget about that. Good thing, though: Clarke is shooting 65% from the field on a near-9 FGA diet nightly, while he's adding fantastic numbers on all other statistical categories. Clarke is one of only two players putting up a 10-5-1 line with 1+ BPG on fewer than 20 MPG over the season.

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 […]
