Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/10/21

A 15-point performance would've been a decent stat, but with goose eggs in a number of other categories, we're a bit worried about Tyrese Maxey. The James Harden effect has seemingly hit Maxey's fantasy value real hard. Good for Harden owners, not so good for Maxey owners. He'll probably get a few good games here and there, plus Harden might cool off from this hot start at some point, but we'll be watching Maxey's production closely. Anthony Davis owners gasped for air after seeing him hit the

Day 1 of the NBA season was nothing extraordinary. The good thing is that every top player did their job for our fantasy team. A couple of guys disappointed a bit, but we'll give them the pass, it's just the first game anyway. Tomorrow will be much crazier as we have 12 games on the slate, so buckle up!

2022/10/05

As we are now in the middle of the draft storm in fantasy basketball, commish and I talked about building the foundation of your fantasy teams. Which 1-2 combo works best when starting your fantasy team? Having a good first two picks can help set the tone to which categories you would want to build on in your drafts. That's why it is important to pick the right players that complement each other and which combination of players might give you a hard time building around. Catch us in any of these

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/09/27

One thing in common about these next 4 teams is that they have this seemingly one forgotten star in their lineup. The Portland Trailblazers had pretty much a forgettable season which can also be said about their star Damian Lillard, who last year surprised and frustrated owners with the announcement of an injury that derailed his season. The Sacramento Kings had De'Aaron Fox who was one of our favorite sleepers last year only to disappoint us. The Toronto Raptors had OG Anunoby whose "breakout"

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/09/21

The biggest question in this group of teams is the return of Zion Williamson. What type of Zion will we see post injury? He is one player that burned a lot of managers who took a gamble on him last season. Is he worth another shot? Where do we pick him? The Milwaukee Bucks and the Phoenix Suns are pretty much on a status quo. But that could mean some players here are being overlooked and can possibly be drafted on good value. For the New York Knicks, can Julius Randle regain the fantasy upside he

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/09/13

The Los Angeles Clippers are one of the favorites to win it all this season just because they have one of the deepest rosters in the league especially now that Kawhi Leonard is set to return. For fantasy purposes though, not everyone will be as valuable as they were last season. Who among the Clippers will be fantasy relevant to start the season? On the other hand, city rivals the Los Angeles Lakers are probably the opposite of the Clips with just a handful of players worth picking during drafts

2022/09/11

In this episode we take a look at the Denver Nuggets, the Detroit Pistons, the Golden State Warriors and the Indiana Pacers. Can we take another chance at Michael Porter Jr.? Will Jamal Murray get back to that top 50 form this season? Is Cade Cunningham worthy of a high draft pick? How do we treat Klay Thompson's fantasy value? Is he now limited to just being a three point specialist? Will Tyrese Haliburton live up to the hype? Can Myles Turner still finish a season healthy and perform

We look at four more teams in this episode - the Brooklyn Nets, the Charlotte Hornets, the Chicago Bulls and the Dallas Mavericks. After all the drama of a potential Kevin Durant trade that never happened, how do we now value KD? Are we staying away from Ben Simmons? How about Kyrie? How high/low should he go? For the Hornets, what's a good value for Gordon Hayward considering he never finishes the season. Who steps up and fill the shoes left by Miles Bridges? Is Terry Rozier underrated? Can Demar

2022/09/03

Finally, the Donovan Mitchell trade happened and it was not New York. The Cleveland Cavaliers made a surprise move on former Jazz star Mitchell acquiring him while trading Colin Sexton, Lauri Markkanen and a bunch of picks. How does this bode for the fantasy value of Mitchell as he now plays alongside Darius Garland? Meanwhile for Garland, who had a great fantasy season last year, how will this impact the major stride he made last season? We also took a glimpse of the depth chart of the Atlanta

We continue our depth chart analysis series this time with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Philadelphia 76ers and the San Antonio Spurs. Can Anthony Edwards get his fantasy game to the next level? How will KAT and Rudy Gobert's fantasy value look like playing side by side each other? Has Tyrese Maxey moved past Tobias Harris as the 3rd best fantasy option in Philly? Who in the Spurs would be the best fantasy option? Can Keldon Johnson be "THE guy" for the Spurs? Catch us in any of these podcast

2022/08/28

It's that time of the year once again when we look into each team's depth chart and assess who would be every team's best fantasy option plus some players we should be looking out for that could turn out to be a surprise this season. In this episode, we look into three teams which we feel would not really make any major moves heading into the season - the OKC Thunder, the Houston Rockets and the Orlando Magic. We also discussed the Patrick Beverley for Talen Horton-Tucker deal and the Kevin Durant

A quick disclaimer, we recorded this a few hours before the Brooklyn Nets and Kevin Durant decided to "move forward with the partnership". This episode kicked off with some KD talk and what his value could look like this season. Would you trust him still as a Net knowing that he wanted out of Brooklyn? We also looked into another star - Donovan Mitchell and his value to the Utah Jazz if they could not find a good trade partner for him this season. Are we seeing Mitchell being another SGA in fantasy

2022/08/17

Yahoo! Just threw out its NBA Fantasy rankings a couple of weeks back. It's still a messed up rankings but we decided to talk about it anyway. One thing we discovered here during our discussion - man, I don't want to get into that 12-14 picks this season! Anyway, it's still a bit early, in case you guys are drafting in a few days, this might be something that can help. Catch us in any of these podcast platforms!

2022/07/21

Every year, there are a bunch of players who are notorious for frustrating fantasy owners because of their constant injuries throughout the season. Some of these guys are high potential yet very high risk players. Malcolm Brogdon, Myles Turner, Anthony Davis, Zion Williamson, just to name a few. In this episode we briefly look into them to see how should we strategize picking these players and where are we comfortable selecting them given their risk.

The biggest trade of the year thus far - Rudy Gobert to the Minnesota Timberwolves! Fantasy-wise, can Rudy Gobert and Karl Anthony-Towns thrive together? Will Gobert's arrival limit the fantasy capabilities of KAT? Who will benefit from this trade fantasy wise? Last season, the Indiana Pacers big men became very attractive options during the fantasy playoffs. With the re-signing of Jalen Smith (who the Pacers said they will start), who becomes the better option between Smith and sophomore Isaiah

We are back for our fourth season! And we kick things off by looking back to the playoffs and discussing which players could carry their great performances to the next fantasy season, which players had fluky performances and who are those players that might go under the radar just because of their poor showing in the playoffs. Then we look into the early moves in free agency as well as some trades that happened before the Kevin Durant sweepstakes opened up. This is probably the first part of our
