BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 48% of leagues
ANALYSIS: The Hawks threw both Washington and New York out of play-in contention, locked into the pre-post-season at the very least, and most of that had to do with the late exploits of Atlanta's Red Mamba Kevin Huerter. Nothing new here, as Huerter is basically a perennial starter in this team, but still worth noticing how KH has been playing phenomenal basketball leading up to the crucial play-in games.
Huerter has started 35 games in a row and 55 total this season. He is the leading two-guard of Atlanta next to Point Trae and that won't change this next week, rest assured. Huerter has dumped 20+ points in four games straight getting back to Mar. 25 a little over a week ago. That's absolutely crazy and Huerter's best scoring stretch of the year to date. Even better, the triples are falling at a blistering pace (2.8 per game from the ASB on, 5 !!! per game in the past four games).
Not happy enough with the scoring, Huerter is helping it with extraordinary shooting percentages (60.3% from the field with a bulky dose of 13 FGA) while adding 2+ boards a pop, 2+ dimes, and 1+ steals. If Huerter is not the best last-week WW target/addition, then I don't even know what we're talking about here, folks. Rush to your FA pool and smash that Add button before it's too late.
