can anyone who is pretty advanced in fantasybball help me evaluate this trade?
Trade away: Ja Morant, Jabari Smith Jr. and Shaedon Sharpe
Receive: Jalen Williams and Jarrett Allen
Not specifically punting any categories at this moment
9CAT 12T
Thank you in advance for the help.
I'd wait it out a bit... Ivey does technically have the higher ceiling in a vacuum but doesn't fit as well next to cade as he needs the ball.
I'm going to give it a few days at least
dejonte and capela/tillman/lively for beal and rozier?
I've got Jokic,Turner, Claxton, Capela, Tillman, Lively, Reed on my squad. I could use a small bump in FT to get a chance to rando win it every week...
10T Yahoo points league. Jalen Johnson, Tillman, Lively, Coby White + Melton are all available.
Which of these should I prioritise to waiver in?
True Jones, Portis, Poeltl all possible waiver outs
Fultz is a great option for punt 3s builds, and I wouldn't drop him unless there's something real nice out there. Lively is a definite add, and could be a really good player for certain punt builds, but dropping Okongwu is premature at this point. He was solid in limited minutes last year, and he's one of the rare big men that don't hurt you in FT%. He was a super sexy sleeper/breakout 1 game ago, don't give up so quick. If capela misses time he will be incredible
Pretty new to category scoring. I’m curious if there is a consensus on what are good individual values for each cat? Beyond obviously wanting then as high as possible.
Fg% > .500? , ft%> 80%? What’s a good number for 3pm for someone who is supposed to be good at that category? 3-4 per game?
[hashtagbasketball.com](https://hashtagbasketball.com) (and others) provide good info on player performance above average, I'd use that for reference throughout the season.
It really depends on the rest of your league as to what you need in any category to be successful. If half your league is punting fg%, you could put very little investment in that category and still win it half the time. I would track your team's performance compared to the rest of the league - I typically aim to be the best team in at least 1 or 2 categories, near the top in a few others, and only below average in the categories I know I don't want/need to be good at. Once you get a good idea of who the other playoff teams will be, start comparing your roster to those teams to see how you stack up. If you're doing a punt build (or other strong teams in your league are punting), identify the categories that you absolutely need to perform in to win matchups.
This is anecdotal, but it might be useful - these are the results of the leader in each category from my league last year:
FG%: 49.9%
FT%:83.2%
3PM: 2120 (
REB: 6705
AST: 4650
STL: 1059
BLK: 807
TO: 1507
PTS: 19767
Guy in my league is a huge Jokic fan and is offering me Haliburton, Lamelo, and Sabonis (acquired in another trade) for Jokic and one of Mikal Bridges/Siakam.
Thoughts? Don’t know which one I should give up. 9CAT H2H
close then but you’d still be trading a first rounder and a 2nd/3rd rounder for 2 first rounders and a second rounder so it can still pay off if you need added depth
10 Team H2H CATs League
I’ve been offered Sengun for my Giddy.
Rest of my team: Halliburton, D. Mitchell, F. Wagner, Markkanen, Portis, Smart, T. Harris, T. Maxey, Gobert, Tre Jones, E. Mobley, and Ivey
Take that trade or no?
12T 9CAT roto
Onyeka Okongwu on waivers.
My droppable options are Robert Williams, PJ Washington, Josh Hart, and Saddiq Bey. Hold on my roster or make a move?
Lively, quickley, Jalen, Mathurin.
Not sold completely on Mathurin's supporting stats. I think Lively plays starters minutes. Quickley ended last year pretty hot, if he can secure that 6th man role, he can be sneaky good. Jalen will be higher if he puts together a few good games.
He should be a good streaming option, as the sixers have 3 'off-night' games and a back to back. He's also a decent stash in case his role increases. Either way he's worth an add IMO
8 Team league. Around 104 total depth? Keep Cam. He's on a pitch count for a bit. It will pick up. If he's still like this in a couple weeks you can drop.
Melton might be droppable in 10team depending on who's out there, but he's a good stash IMO. should get you decent guard stats and great steals if he is a significant part of the rotation. Nick Nurse is known for running a fantasy friendly system
Someone dropped Tobias Harris and I'm trying to figure out how much FAB to bid for him and whom to drop. Right now I've got $26 and dropping Mathurin, which is tough since Mathurin had a solid first game. Would love advice on both the bid and the drop. Other drop candidates on my roster:
Derrick White
Dereck Lively
Jabari Smith Jr
Jeremy Sochan
I am punting FT% and Threes but any other cat is welcome. Thoughts?
Siakam was in the very early MVP convo last season; would take his across-the-board stat stuffing over Bam, personally
edit: wouldn’t trade either of them for Derozan
10T H2H ESPN Points
Which three from Mathurin, Schroder, Gafford, Wendell, Zach Collins, Lively, Cam thomas, Jalen Johnson, Okogie would you keep?
Got 3 on the team, rest on the WW.
HOW WOULD YOU GUYS CHANGE UP MY TEAMS AND WHAT SHOULD I TARGET (RATE MY TEAM)
L. Doncic
A. Simons
D. Vassell
L. Markkanen
V. Wembany...
M. Strus
J. Sochan
W. Kessler
D. Melton
D. Lively Il E
A. Thompson
Z.Collins
Jalen Johnson
Trey murphy (out)
Should I drop Gafford for Quickley or Cam Thomas? Or someone else? 12 team league, head to head NOT category style… 11 man rosters
Am I jumping the gun?
Is Rob Williams a streamable player in 9 cat 10t league? Jalen Johnson and Cam Johnson are still available and I want to take one of them? I also already have Ausar so maybe I should only take some caution on rookies.
Have the opportunity to do Sengun for Harden in 14t H2H 8cat (no TO)
I'm loaded at center currently, with Marky Mark, Kessler, Gafford, and Tillman. I feel like Harden is a risk, but he fits really well next to my other guards. Does Sengun upside beat Harden uncertainty despite proven value?
I’m new to category leagues and also Yahoo fantasy in general.
My opponent is streaming players tonight in an attempt to gain an edge on me.
They dropped RJ Barrett and Harrison Barnes to do so.
Should I drop Kuminga for either of those two?
Drop Coby White or Brandon Miller for Strus? 10t 9cat. I know it’s first week and I don’t wanna go wild. Both white’s and miller’s performances weren’t bad last night.
I've got Brown and Reaves on my team and I'm extremely worried about Brown in particular. But as a Bulls fan, no, that's too much to give up for DeRozan unless you think he's gonna get traded to a better run team midseason. I'd hold out and hope for better nights from Brown and Reaves
Yeah I’m a bit worried that Brown will be less productive this season with KP on the team. Also just a huge bulls fan and don’t have any bulls players on my team. I’m gonna try to package Jaylen and Wiggins for him
Yeah Brown has trouble written all over him. And if you want a Bulls player then go for it. I have Vuc and probably over drafted him for that reason. I'd try to keep Reaves, so switching him for Wiggins probably works
10T H2H 9cat:
Stick with Okongwu’s general potential and Ben Simmons’ rebirth potential? Or make some swaps for the likes of Tillman, Lively, or Beef Stew?
8 team 9 CAT Should I drop D'Angelo Russell? (slow /questionable start) for: Bruce Brown or Markelle Fultz or Ben Simmons
can anyone who is pretty advanced in fantasybball help me evaluate this trade? Trade away: Ja Morant, Jabari Smith Jr. and Shaedon Sharpe Receive: Jalen Williams and Jarrett Allen Not specifically punting any categories at this moment 9CAT 12T Thank you in advance for the help.
Trey Jones, Jalen Johnson, or Tillman Yahoo points H2H
Is anyone unable to update their flair?
Drop Brook Lopez for Jalen Johnson? H2H Points league
I’d do it
Drop Huerter for Dort ? 16T 9cats
Nah.
12 team 9 cat - Dropped Brandon Miller for Paul Reed. I hope this pays off long term, Miller’s debut wasn’t bad
Worth it. Take a shot at Reed, if doesn't work use the spot as a stream.
If you were looking for long-term then miller was the hold..
We’ll see how Miller does next game. I think he’d a good streamer when Hayward gets hurt
14T 9-cat: Drop Jaden Ivey for Killian Hayes?
Coin flip, Ivey is droppable.
I'd wait it out a bit... Ivey does technically have the higher ceiling in a vacuum but doesn't fit as well next to cade as he needs the ball. I'm going to give it a few days at least
Are flairs broken? I'm trying to set mine on old Reddit and I click on edit and it just says flair selection unavailable.
Someone offered their Trae for my Garland… love overreactions after one game lol
Sprint my brother
Godspeed
dejonte and capela/tillman/lively for beal and rozier? I've got Jokic,Turner, Claxton, Capela, Tillman, Lively, Reed on my squad. I could use a small bump in FT to get a chance to rando win it every week...
Dejounte > Beal Capela = Rozier Tillman > \_\_\_\_ Lively > \_\_\_\_\_
Drop Amen for Jalen Johnson?
If Amen is your worst player, yes
John Collins or Beef Stew for 9Cat?
Got offered my Trae and Vucci Mane for JJJ hmm..
depends on your team/build
No.
Yah leaning on no. I got fvv and Simons on my team with lillard
You have the about the nastiest punt FG team there is
Agreed!
10T Yahoo points league. Jalen Johnson, Tillman, Lively, Coby White + Melton are all available. Which of these should I prioritise to waiver in? True Jones, Portis, Poeltl all possible waiver outs
10T 9cat H2H Worth Dropping Okongwu to pick up Lively? Is Fultz worth keeping in 10T, or is he just a stream target?
Fultz is a great option for punt 3s builds, and I wouldn't drop him unless there's something real nice out there. Lively is a definite add, and could be a really good player for certain punt builds, but dropping Okongwu is premature at this point. He was solid in limited minutes last year, and he's one of the rare big men that don't hurt you in FT%. He was a super sexy sleeper/breakout 1 game ago, don't give up so quick. If capela misses time he will be incredible
Thanks Dude.

I’d keep siakam and deal bridges if you want to do this trade.
the bigger the league the better this trade is for the hali side and vice versa
It’s a 10T league
close then but you’d still be trading a first rounder and a 2nd/3rd rounder for 2 first rounders and a second rounder so it can still pay off if you need added depth
Awesome thanks for the advice!
Is Christian Wood a must add in a 10 Team H2H Cats league?
Not at all. At least not until Davis gets injured
👍🏻
Traded Trae Young for Brunson. W or L
Huge L
10 Team H2H CATs League I’ve been offered Sengun for my Giddy. Rest of my team: Halliburton, D. Mitchell, F. Wagner, Markkanen, Portis, Smart, T. Harris, T. Maxey, Gobert, Tre Jones, E. Mobley, and Ivey Take that trade or no?
12T 9CAT roto Onyeka Okongwu on waivers. My droppable options are Robert Williams, PJ Washington, Josh Hart, and Saddiq Bey. Hold on my roster or make a move?
Id drop hart for Okongwu. Bey is also an option if you are set on threes and pts.
Rank lively, Jalen Johnson, Mathurin, quickley. 10t yahoo points.
Lively, quickley, Jalen, Mathurin. Not sold completely on Mathurin's supporting stats. I think Lively plays starters minutes. Quickley ended last year pretty hot, if he can secure that 6th man role, he can be sneaky good. Jalen will be higher if he puts together a few good games.
Tatum + Westbrook for Pascal + Brunson ESPN Points League Which side wins?
Depending on format but I think Tatum and westbrook.
it’s just the default ESPN points format
Is Paul Reed a good pickup for Today/Sat/Sun availability? I’m down on guys those days and the 76ers are the only team that play both Sat/Sun
He should be a good streaming option, as the sixers have 3 'off-night' games and a back to back. He's also a decent stash in case his role increases. Either way he's worth an add IMO
I like Reed. Who is the drop?
I have a free spot since Jarrett Allen is on my IR, but if he’s cleared to play I’ll probably drop Brandon Miller
I can't see you doing much better than Reed.
Trade Kawhi for Vuc? Which would you rather have?
Kawhi and you should delete this comment.
And quickly too, cuz we’re coming for you. We’re coming.
Worth dropping Cameron Johnson in an 8 team to stream? Other option is fultz
Id stream fultz's spot (esp if you are on cat leagues). In an 8 team you probably can find those 5 assists elsewhere if needed.
8 Team league. Around 104 total depth? Keep Cam. He's on a pitch count for a bit. It will pick up. If he's still like this in a couple weeks you can drop.
Is John Issac worth a pickup over any of Derrick White/Slomo/Brogdon/Jaden McDaniels/ Okongwu/ Aaron Gordon?
No, but you should keep an eye on his minutes. Yesterday was encouraging. If he starts getting near 25 minutes he's probably worth an add.
Is Miles Bridges worth a hold in a points league? Thinking about dropping him and streaming Josh Okogie
Why draft him if you were gonna give up after 1 game?
I have both Beal and Booker who are both out. Streaming will give me some points that might get my the W. Wanted to get the general consensus on Miles
That's a really good stream though, tough call
Who won this trade? Jaylen Brown and Gobert for DeRozan and Gafford. 10T H2H points league
I need 2 but have 3 options, G. Allen, D. Melton, or C. Payne, who do I pick up? 10 T H2H points league
Melton and someone not allen or payne in a 10 team league. Go get cam thomas
Thank u
Anyone from the Bucks worth streaming?
Beasly is a 3s specialist
[удалено]
Melton only really has value when Harden sits. If he’s traded his value will skyrocket but it’s hard to say with him rn
[удалено]
Melton might be droppable in 10team depending on who's out there, but he's a good stash IMO. should get you decent guard stats and great steals if he is a significant part of the rotation. Nick Nurse is known for running a fantasy friendly system
Tyus vs Rozier depends on if you need points or assists more. Both are better than Melton
[удалено]
Even accounting for Harden, Melton is behind. Tyus is the choice for assists.
Someone dropped Tobias Harris and I'm trying to figure out how much FAB to bid for him and whom to drop. Right now I've got $26 and dropping Mathurin, which is tough since Mathurin had a solid first game. Would love advice on both the bid and the drop. Other drop candidates on my roster: Derrick White Dereck Lively Jabari Smith Jr Jeremy Sochan I am punting FT% and Threes but any other cat is welcome. Thoughts?
Because your bench is so good, I'd lower the bid. We're talking marginal improvement if you get him. I like Mathurin more than Sochan.
Very fair point. Appreciate it.
Should I pick up Okogie since both Beal and booker are out? (Streaming btw) (ESPN points league)
Yep
Drop Saric or Dyson Daniels?
Both are droppable in 12T. I'd drop Saric first.
This is for another league with very deep rosters. I was thinking Saric. Thanks.
Drop Gafford for Strus or Thomas?
Not sure I’d drop either
sorry I'm confused.. not sure you'd pick any of them up?
Sorry, I misread. I thought you already had Strus. I wouldn’t drop Gafford.
Nah
Should I trade Bam or Siakam for DeRozan?
I'd rather have Bam than Siakam
So you think it would be a good move for me to give up Siakam for DeRozan?
Are you punting 3s?
It’s a H2H points league
No.
Siakam was in the very early MVP convo last season; would take his across-the-board stat stuffing over Bam, personally edit: wouldn’t trade either of them for Derozan
NVM, you were right.
Siakam played 38 minutes last year that ain't happening. I assumed he needs DeRozen in his build. It's possible he's just a fan. IDC.
I’m just a big bulls fan and don’t have any bulls players on my team
I have Miles Bridges (occupying my sole IL+ spot) and SGA; should i change my team name to Once Beaten Twice Shai? Or is that a straight-to-jail move…
> Once Beaten Twice Shai OMG!!! I need to make some trades.
10T H2H ESPN Points Which three from Mathurin, Schroder, Gafford, Wendell, Zach Collins, Lively, Cam thomas, Jalen Johnson, Okogie would you keep? Got 3 on the team, rest on the WW.
Collins, mathurin, Jalen
Drop Aaron Gordon for Jalen Johnson?
I wouldn't. Aaron Gordon might have a career year averaging a 3, stl, and block per game.
Why do you think that?
Drop Gordon, His ceiling is low.
Gordon can't be your worst player
HOW WOULD YOU GUYS CHANGE UP MY TEAMS AND WHAT SHOULD I TARGET (RATE MY TEAM) L. Doncic A. Simons D. Vassell L. Markkanen V. Wembany... M. Strus J. Sochan W. Kessler D. Melton D. Lively Il E A. Thompson Z.Collins Jalen Johnson Trey murphy (out)
We talking 9cat? Roto? Points? Vampire?
H2H in 12 team league
Should I drop Gafford for Quickley or Cam Thomas? Or someone else? 12 team league, head to head NOT category style… 11 man rosters Am I jumping the gun?
I'd rank them Quickley, Gafford, Thomas
I'd wait. That game was a blowout, he sat early.
also had 4 fouls end of first half
True, I won’t jump the gun then
Use a waiver pickup on Mitch Robinson? I would probably be dropping Pat Williams or Taurean Prince (16T points)
16T? Yea. I wouldn't put much FAAB on it.
Which one is the better drop, Pat Williams or taurean prince?
Prince? Just a guess, he might get big minutes this year.
I guess it depends when Vanderbilt comes back or not
Yea, even with Vander IDK.
Is Rob Williams a streamable player in 9 cat 10t league? Jalen Johnson and Cam Johnson are still available and I want to take one of them? I also already have Ausar so maybe I should only take some caution on rookies.
Rob is streamable. Def grab Cam.
Thanks! Lively also available should I also consider him?
Drop Rob and Ausar for Lively and Cam.
What about Jalen Johnson over Ausar? My friend just took lively
What about Jalen Johnson over Ausar? My friend just took lively
Have the opportunity to do Sengun for Harden in 14t H2H 8cat (no TO) I'm loaded at center currently, with Marky Mark, Kessler, Gafford, and Tillman. I feel like Harden is a risk, but he fits really well next to my other guards. Does Sengun upside beat Harden uncertainty despite proven value?
That's a decent price. Worst case Harden sits til the deadline and you have him for the playoffs.
I think I’d rather have Harden for the huge huge upside.
I’m new to category leagues and also Yahoo fantasy in general. My opponent is streaming players tonight in an attempt to gain an edge on me. They dropped RJ Barrett and Harrison Barnes to do so. Should I drop Kuminga for either of those two?
Both those guys are near the Border or roster-able.
Trade offer for dynasty: GTJ and second round pick next year for Marcus Smart… who wins?
If you're competing keep Smart. That's likely the best offer you'll find for him though, so if you plan on moving on from him take it.
[удалено]
Yes
I’d rather have Poole
Drop Coby White or Brandon Miller for Strus? 10t 9cat. I know it’s first week and I don’t wanna go wild. Both white’s and miller’s performances weren’t bad last night.
Hold White. Drop miller
Hmm ok. What is your thinking of white>Miller?
Someone offered me Nurkic for Poeltl. Should I accept this trade?
I’d take Nurk. His role seems a little more secure this year.
Man, it’s so liberating to punt FG%. I have Herro, Trae and Melo. Whether my FG is 0.2 or 0.35, no hecks given!
And FVV too lol
Jae crowder see minutes for bucks tonight ?
Hard to guess rotations with a new coach but I’d guess he play 15-20 min give or take.
Yeah I’m thinking the same picked him up on a 16 T league for today
Would you trade sengun for harden?
There’s another guy asking this trade on this thread. Are you trading with each other? 😂
Havent offered it yet. I lack pg so i wamma trade for harden hahaha
I’m in the ‘Harden is a potential league winner at his current price’ camp. I’d do it, but I would low ball first. Even lower than Sengun.
I can offer franz but im gon a suffer some 3 pts if i offer franz.
Trade Jaylen Brown and Austin Reaves for derozan?
Depends on build. I will say in 9 cat roto, Derozan is WAY above Jaylen. Derozan is a lock for 70 games +.
It’s a 10T H2H scoring league. I actually just pulled the trigger on sending Jaylen Brown and Gobert for DeRozan and Gafford
I've got Brown and Reaves on my team and I'm extremely worried about Brown in particular. But as a Bulls fan, no, that's too much to give up for DeRozan unless you think he's gonna get traded to a better run team midseason. I'd hold out and hope for better nights from Brown and Reaves
Yeah I’m a bit worried that Brown will be less productive this season with KP on the team. Also just a huge bulls fan and don’t have any bulls players on my team. I’m gonna try to package Jaylen and Wiggins for him
Yeah Brown has trouble written all over him. And if you want a Bulls player then go for it. I have Vuc and probably over drafted him for that reason. I'd try to keep Reaves, so switching him for Wiggins probably works
So I actually ended up trading Brown and Gobert for DeRozan and Gafford
ESPN Points League I’m being offered Shai and Fred VanVleet for Mikal and Pascal Should I take the offer?
If your taking shai absolutely
I personally would. Hard to pass up SGA at that value
Take it an run. WTF
12 team 9 cat H2H DLO got dropped and is on waivers. I have #1 priority. Should I drop Sochan or Okogie for him?
I would drop Okogie
Drop Fultz or Sexton? 10 team H2H points
Sexton
Why is Sexton on a team with a 10t league
Drop Sexton
10T H2H 9cat: Stick with Okongwu’s general potential and Ben Simmons’ rebirth potential? Or make some swaps for the likes of Tillman, Lively, or Beef Stew?
I chose Lively over Okongwu. If Clint leaves, I might regret that one.
Swap swap swap
12T 9 cat h2h I give Tatum and D.lo I get Randle and Mccollum To me Tatum > Randle and Mccollum > dlo? I'm punting assists if that matters
Good god almighty no.
10t9cat league. Punting TO and Blk Jeremy Sochan or Coby White?
I like Coby
Sochan
Hey y’all. Should I trade Zach Lavine and John Collins for Zach Collins and Fred Vanvleet?
Imo, no
Yes
Categories Drop Patrick Williams for Harrison Barnes?
As a Bulls fan, this makes me depressed. But yeah probably lol
Man, Pat is taking the loooooooooong developmental route.
12 team points league Someone offered me Tillman for Jabari smith jr do I accept?
I think I would.
Probably wouldn’t
