Fantasy Benchwarmers with JJT & Eric Go

Welcome fellow Fantasy Benchwarmers! We created created this channel because like you we love to make believe that we are NBA fantasy basketball experts (we are not) and enjoy talking about the game, the players and the experience. In this space we share our experiences, tips, opinions and commentaries about playing the game of fantasy basketball. We are not claiming that we are experts, so take any of our tips with a little grain of salt.

S04DFQ24 - The Replacement Players: Who's worth holding?

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/11/15

With more injuries come more opportunities and as we've seen before in past seasons, some players will turn our heads. Mo Bamba today put up a very nice line but can he have any fantasy relevance once Paolo Banchero returns? We also discussed Dalano Banton, Thad Young, Jalen Williams and the possible return of Jaren Jackson Jr. Catch us in any of these podcast platforms!

S04DFQ23 - Is Nikola Jokic a "Buy Low"?

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/11/14

I know, it's crazy! Nikola Jokic is currently top 6 in ranks, by his standards, that's far from being number 1. As Joel Embiid dropped back-to-back gems of a stat line, we discussed whether it's time to sell top players like Steph Curry, Joel Embiid for Jokic. Listen in and share your thoughts too on this topic. Plus, great performances from Darius Garland, Domantas Sabonis, Anthony Davis and more! Catch us in any of these podcast platforms!

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/11/13

Lamelo Ball returns, Jaren Jackson Jr seems "close" to returning, and it looks like problematic players Kawhi Leonard and Kyrie Irving seems "so near yet so far" to returning. Cade Cunningham is out with an injury, DeAndre Ayton is ranked lower than Isaiah Stewart, De'Angelo Russell is just one of many T'Wolves to be struggling these days and Ben Simmons, well, there seems to be no signs of him being close to the Ben Simmons we're hoping for. All these and more in today's Daily Fantasy

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/11/10

He is not getting any younger. Lebron James went down with an injury in the last few minutes of their game against the Clippers. And with the way things are going with the LA Lakers, this may not be a good sign. We'll still need to wait for some timeline, plus it's still early and for sure Lebron will be back (with that Kareem record in sight). But with that much mileage in his body, he might miss a few games just to keep it safe. We also discussed - Isaiah Hartenstein, Malcolm Brogdon, Jalen

S04DFQ18 - Should Jabari Smith Jr. be dropped?

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/11/08

The FBW Callouts have been quite successful with the last call outs being Jalen Smith, Jalen Green and Al Horford. All three played way better in today's 15-game slate. We've gotten a lot of requests for Jabari Smith Jr. So here's our attempt. But for Jabari's case, I don't know, this struggle of his feels like it's going to stick for a while just because of his role in this team being that 4th option. But let's see if the fantasy gods answer our call out prayer. We also look at some injuries and

Who's one player you are most disappointed with so far? This was how we kicked off today's quickie as commish and I talk about our most disappointing pick in any of our teams after week 3. I know it's still early and these players can still turn things around. This is just one of our ways to vent out some frustration...you know let the baggage go to feel a little better. Then we look at the new and improved 6th man of the Los Angeles Lakers - Russell Westbrook. Since moving to a bench role, RWB has

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/11/06

It's hard not to still talk about Kyrie Irving. The Brooklyn Nets released their conditions for Kyrie in order for them to lift his suspension. Do you think Kyrie will meet the Nets' demands? We talk about these demands to see whether Kyrie can play with the Nets again or will he still play at all. We also discussed a number of worry players that includes, Jalen Smith, Jakob Poeltl, Jonas Valanciunas and Monte Morris. We also look at the recent string of injuries to key players like Pascal Siakam,

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/11/02

We look into our (F)eel Good guys in this episode with the current top 3 guys in fantasy basketball - Steph Curry, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Kevin Durant. I was not a big fan of Steph heading into this season just because he was not as good last season and with the championship run last year my thinking was he'll be rested more. But so far, Curry has been really good...good enough to be fantasy basketball's number one player. SGA is another guy on fire of late and if you're worried about any

2022/11/01

We kinda knew that Lauri Markkanen would be a good player to own this season after he was traded to the Utah Jazz, but honestly, we never thought he will be this good. Currently within top 40 in ranks, we discuss whether Markkanen is a sell, or keep? If he is a sell, what type of players should we target for him. We also talked about the off-court issues of Kyrie and how this can affect him in fantasy. Commish shares his worst case scenario for Kyrie. Plus, more player discussions - Paul George,

S04DFQ12 - Buy Low, Sell High Fantasy Trading Tips

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/10/31

The cliche "Buy Low, Sell High" is probably the most used in fantasy basketball. In reality, pulling off such trades is easier said than done, especially in very competitive leagues. So in this episode we talk about some buy low and sell high players and we throw out some names you can target for these players. We'll probably do more of these through out the season, but for today we discussed Anthony Davis, Paul George, Donovan Mitchell, Bol Bol, Bojan Bogdanovic, Jabari Smith Jr., Evan

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/10/28

My, my, my, LUKA! We know it's very early into the season, but Luka Doncic owners for sure could not contain their joy as their guy is on a tear! Is this the breakout we are waiting for from Luka? Which then brings back to my question, who can unseat Nikola Jokic as the top fantasy basketball player? If Luka can keep that 80% FT shooting through out the season, keep himself healthy enough, and pour out crazy counting stats that he is capable of, he could be the one, so let's see. Kyrie Irving is

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/10/27

Here we go again, the annual Anthony Davis injury saga continues. It just never fails. AD seem to hurt his back during their game against Denver. The good news is he played through it, so let's hope this is just an injury that could be rested for a couple of days. Otherwise, managers who own him will once again feel the disappointment of owning a very fragile top fantasy pick. We also discussed Russell Westbrook on whether it is safe to drop him now. With Myles Turner back as Indiana's starting

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/10/26

Our biggest worry player for today was Cade Cunningham. He put up another so so game and all this time we felt that he was prime for a breakout. We might be wrong. Has he taken a backseat to rookie Jaden Ivey? Or can he get back to the late season form he showed last season? Kawhi was load managed today and will also miss the LA Clippers' next game. We kind of expected something like this, but this early? Looks like this will be a problem throughout the season for those who took Kawhi really

2022/10/25

Bol Bol took the fantasy world into a frenzy today posting a solid line in just 20 minutes of play. Can he sustain this or is this a one time thing? We also look into a bunch of worry players - Bam Adebayo, Anthony Edwards, Ben Simmons, Isaiah Jackson, Kyle Lowry and a few more. And we also celebrated the MVP-like start of Ja Morant!

2022/10/24

Karl Anthony-Towns. We knew the arrival of Rudy Gobert will affect his fantasy value, but we never thought it was going to be this bad. The scoring had made a significant drop while the FG% is just atrocious for KAT standards. It doesn't help that KAT feels he is the "best big man shooter" in the league as he continues to clunk threes toward 30+% field goal. So what should we do now? Can he still get better and get closer to his ADP? Should we buy low on him? How low can we offer? We also discuss a

2022/10/23

A number of rookies are creating their own noise with their strong play in the first week of the NBA. In this episode, we look into the top rookies and discuss their performances and what we expect as the season goes along. Who among the rookies can still emerge, while which rookies will eventually fade. We also talk about some of the struggling players as we figure out who should be a hold and who are drops.
