Wondering who are the top pickups to consider during the All-Star break? We've got you covered.

Superstar Fantasy Headaches Feb 13, 2019

Show notes

Matt Stroup and Ryan Knaus consider the big-name fantasy options that also happen to be some of the most polarizing players out there, from injury/shutdown risks Kevin Love, Anthony Davis and Kawhi Leonard to high-volume poor shooters Dennis Smith Jr. and Russell Westbrook. We weigh the the pros and cons of keeping vs. trading these players, and talk specifics of what we'd try to get back in an AD or Kawhi trade.

Also on this episode, we break down some recent eye-catching trends, from Lauri Markkanen's scoring binge to Jonathan Isaac's continued emergence as a defensive force, as well as the updated outlook for Bobby Portis in D.C. — which involves the latter putting up (and making) a lot of 3s.

NBA Trade Deadline Fantasy Preview Feb 06, 2019

Show notes

Matt Stroup and Tommy Beer look ahead to the NBA trade deadline, and consider what to expect from the Pelicans, Lakers and Anthony Davis as we get closer to Thursday. Is there a chance AD doesn’t play another minute this season? Is there a chance he ends up in L.A.? Could he stay in New Orleans and still get into some games before the season is over? Yes to all three.

If a Davis trade does go down, we talk about a scenario where Kentavious Caldwell-Pope could be a big beneficiary.

Plus, potential fallout from any trades of Marc Gasol and Mike Conley, and why Jabari Parker could be an intriguing post-trade/buyout stash in fantasy leagues.
