Let's talk about Monday in the NBA.

There were seven games on. Let's recap them. There's always weird stuff going on. We know that. And we're going to break it down. Michael Bolton is going to sit back and watch, aren't you, Mike? Thanks, Josh. It's Michael Bolton here, and it's time for another episode of the Locked-on Fantasy Basketball podcast. Let's get to it. Let's get to it. Indeed.

You are Locked on Fantasy. Your daily NBA Fantasy podcast. Part of the Locked On Podcast Network,

your team every day. Hello and welcome to the Locked On Fantasy Basketball podcast, brought you by Basketball Monster. My name is Josh Lloyd and I'm going to turn this podcast up to 11. I'm also the lead fantasy analyst at Basketballmonster.com and thank you for making this podcast. Well, thank you for making us, the No. 1 Sports Podcast Network. The Locked-on Podcast Network. I'm stumbling over my words

for whatever reason,

but we are number one with the number one sports podcast network and thank you for you for pushing us there. It's been huge to get there and I'm still going with my own personal goals of getting to 100K and I hope we get there. Soon. Hopefully. Maybe. All right. Monday's games. let's talk about a quick little news bit that you need to know about because I know

know you're going to panic about it, but we were trying to figure out what the Utah Jazz

were going to do.

And yeah, Larry Marketing is questionable.

It sounds like he will play.

But they did sit, Yus of Nurkich.

So they got to Warriors, they're going to clip as Warriors back to back here. So Nerkich is doubtful, but then they also have rested Kiante George. Okay. I know that the immediate thought will go into your head. If you have Kiyonte George, oh no, it is over. I must trade him away now. I would say that is the

worst decision you could make. Here is why. Because as soon as you see a Keonté George arrest, you've gone, well, got to get rid of him. He's not going to play in the playoffs. But so is everyone else. Everyone else will see the same thing and go, okay, I'm not giving you anything then. I'll give you very little for a guy that's like a top 40 player.

He might help me in the short term, but he won't be there for the playoffs. But what if he rest this game, sure. And then he doesn't rest the next back to back or the next back to back or the next back to back. Then, if you're worried about it, and I'm not really that worried about him missing all the time in March and able.

I'm not that worried about it.

It could happen, obviously. But I don't believe this is the beginning of like, he's just sitting every back to back from now on. I don't think that. We'll see over the next one, of course. I don't know this. but I would then wait to see if an equilibrium rebalances and we get him playing the back-to-backs, Keonté next time out. And then if you're worried about it happening after the deadline after the break, then, like, then you trade him if we get a few back-to-backs into him now. Doing it right now when the shock hits you go, hey, whoa, back to back, what am I

going to do? I'm going to everything. He's gone. Everyone else is going the same thing. So wait for it to go back to like, oh, maybe he will play. So there's at least some doubt there. At the moment, everyone's going to immediately think, well, he's done. It's it. It's not going to play. They're going to shut him down.

So trading Kianti George away at this point, not the right move. With Markinen returning,

I think that Filipowski will get minutes, but they could also just start Kevin Love.

Again, who knows? And I think it's going to be, I think Markan's 100% sitting on Wednesday, by the way, in that game against the Warriors, pretty sure he'll sit, and I think Nurkidge will sit that one too. George may play, but I don't know, we'll find out. What about WaverWire trends? Who's been added? Who's been dropped since we did the WaverWyer show yesterday morning? or yesterday morning for me anyway, the most added player. Number one is the National Tile, Jarris Walker.

Hello! since we did the WaverWire show yesterday morning, or yesterday morning for me anyway, the most added player, number one, is the national tile.

Jarris Walker. Hello. We talked about Walker quite a bit, how he seemed to be establishing himself, and if you wanted to get on top of it and get ahead of it, you might want to do it. I think you do want to do it. He's going to have some bad field goal percentage nights, absolutely. But they've moved away from playing a real centre.
