| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody, welcome back to fantasy NBA today. Sports Ethos presentation brought to you by our great partners at Fandall. I'm Aaron Brewski, joined as always by the godfather of fantasy basketball, Steve, Dr. A. Alexander. And if you're looking for actionable fantasy basketball advice to help you win your league, you're in the right place. If you missed it, we did a deep dive on all the biggest fantasy basketball topics around the league. Before that, we delivered you the top ads, drops, and streamers. So go listen to those episodes as well. In this episode, we're going to be debating key waiver wire decisions helping you guys figure out which players are worth adding, which ones are just watch list guys and which ones you can skip. So Doc, let's talk waiver wire decisions and as we go through this list here we're to kind of break down these guys |
| 0:41.8 | is either rest of season ads short term ads mustache players watch list guys streamers and drops |
| 0:47.1 | and whatnot and then at the end we're going to rank the top three must have players and then the |
| 0:52.2 | bottom three players these are the guys we trust the least and then we're going to explain how we're prioritizing all of this. So Doc, we're going to start with Grayson Allen. How do you see Grayson? Is he rest of the season, short term, at, et cetera. What do you think? I don't know. I don't know what to think. He got off to such a crazy start and then he got hurt and then he came back and he really hasn't done much since |
| 1:12.9 | he's come back. He's not a top priority for me. I like Grayson Allen. I've always kind of |
| 1:22.7 | been a Grayson Allen supporter. So I don't think he's available in many leagues. |
| 1:29.9 | So I don't know that it matters. |
| 1:32.3 | But if he gets dropped in the league, |
| 1:33.8 | I think he's definitely worth picking up. |
| 1:35.6 | I don't think he's like my favorite pickup of the guys we're going to talk about. |
| 1:40.6 | But I do think he should be rostered. |
| 1:43.1 | Yeah, I think with Grayson here, |
| 1:45.2 | the way I look at him is that he, if healthy, has a really good shot at producing top 75 value. |
| 1:51.2 | That's really tough to come by, you know, depending on where your league plays. I think you've got |
| 1:55.9 | to measure where the bottom of your roster in your league plays in terms of value. Is it a top 75 situation? Is it top |
| 2:02.6 | 100? Is it top 125 and so on down the list? And if it's not top 75 is the bottom, you know, |
| 2:09.4 | then I think you got to treat Grace and Allen as a rest of season ad because they're just being |
| 2:14.7 | very careful with him at this point in time. And they've been very careful and been pretty damn good with injuries in Phoenix |
| 2:20.6 | and how they handle him. |
| 2:21.7 | So I think they're doing the right thing by him and top 75 when he gets back is on the radar. |
| 2:26.9 | What do you think about Kelly Ubre, Doc? |
| 2:29.8 | Got him on a bunch of teams. |
