BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 30% of leagues
ANALYSIS: If/When Karl-Anthony Towns come back from his COVID scare, Reid will definitely lose all of his appeal. Wait a minute, are we sure of that? Sure, the two games in which Reid and KAT shared the floor this season (KAT has only played four total) the younger guy was on the court for less than 20 minutes, didn't star, and his numbers were rather low. But since KAT has been out and Reid was thrust into the starting lineup he's thrived.
Reid isn't needing a ton of minutes to put up numbers. In seven starts in the past eight games Reid has averaged 13+ PPG, 6 RPG, 1+ APG, and 3 stocks per game. He's basically a nightly line-stuffer doing it all for a barren Wolves squad that has found some sort of bright light in the second-year man out of LSU.
Reid posted his first dub-dub of the year on Jan. 25 against GSW (11-10) and was this close to doing so for the second time last Wednesday finishing with a nonetheless good 8-11-3-2. Oh, and I haven't mentioned that Reid can stretch the floor as hell and is hitting 1.2 3PG on the season, while he is on a streak of scoring at least one triple in 12 consecutive games.

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.
