Must-Drafts & Do Not Drafts | 15 Players Skyrocketing or Tumbling in Rankings | Yahoo Board 2 Aug 25, 2026

Show notes

Yahoo's second board is out, and it's not a massive list of movers, but the ones that did, well, we have a few thoughts. Let's dive into the risers and fallers of board two and see if they've become steals, busts, or neither!

The Yahoo 4th ROUND! Turnover DISASTERS in the Top-48! First Look! Aug 24, 2026

Show notes

Jaylen Brown, LeBron James, Deni Avdija, and more! These guys were all 8-category success stories last year moving into crowded situations. Is there any reason to even consider them in the 40's? What about high-risk, high-reward names like Markkanen, Kyrie, Joel?

Who to Pair with Your First Pick | First Look Punting and Pairing Guide (Part 2) Aug 23, 2026

Show notes

Pairing is overrated. I've said it for 20 years. But in head-to-head formats, you can gain an edge by leaning into particular build types with your top two grabs. Yahoo's first rank board is here, so let's have an initial crack at this annual challenge. In part two, we cover Cade through Haliburton to finish off the top 12.

The Yahoo SECOND ROUND! Must-Drafts and AVOIDS in the Fantasy Basketball Top-25! First Look! Aug 22, 2026

Show notes

When is the right time to snag Karl-Anthony Towns off a Finals run? Can Anthony Davis survive the year? Is Cooper Flagg ready to jump into the 1st round? The 13-24 zone is filled with risk, and Dan kind of hates the whole damn thing, but maybe we can find a way through it.
