BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 6% of leagues
ANALYSIS: While Patty Mills keep putting up good numbers and playing as an above-average fantasy player more often than not, he's still flying under the radar of most fantasy GMs and available in more than 9 of each 10 Yahoo leagues... Some things one will never understand.
Mills is San Antonio's premier backup-point and is playing 23.6 MPG, having topped at 29 a few days ago when he was 22 seconds short of reaching 30 minutes on the day. Made sense, considering he had his best game of the season to the tune of 21 pops (including 5 treys), a rebound, and 3 dimes with just 1 turnover. Mills' shooting is sublime so far this year with 57/58/100 splits on 8.3 FGA, 4.8 3PA, and 1.8 FTA per game.
Derrick White is coming back to the squad after being out injured, but Mills is a grizzled veteran with a very solidified role in the Spurs rotation and will most probably keep getting touches nightly. In this day and age, up to 97 NBA players are attempting 4.8+ treys a day. Of those, though, only three are hitting them at a higher clip than Mills, and only Kevin Durant and Alec Burks are doing so while posting up higher rebounds/assists numbers than Mills on 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 […]
