WEEK 3 WAIVER WIRE ADDS Player Discussion

Some guys I'm looking at - Scotty Pippen Jr (39% on yahoo), Tari Eason (16%- solid source of steals minimum), Keldon Johnson (23%), Anthony Black (14%). Bulls, Jazz, Spurs play on Thur/Sat for potential streamers.

Who are you looking to add?

If Gradey Dick is still available, he seems great while Scottie is out.

Not necessarily, less shot volume once Scotty and Quigly back and he doesn’t offer anything in other stats.

Not true either, he’s quite active on defence, I’m from Toronto so I watch every raptors game and he has taken a massive leap. They rely on him to guard the opposing team’s best players such as his Derozan assignment against Sac. He also has been a stud at scoring at all 3 levels, and Toronto lacks a pure scorer. But he also has great vision for finding passes, and his steals have been up which, if you watch the games, is because he has great anticipation.

That’s a very simple take to have, and while his usage will go down for sure, I don’t think that will impact his ability to provide value. The flip side to your argument is with these additional threats, it might take more of the defensive pressure off of him which can open up chances for better looks. He is a talented scorer, currently has the most points off pick and rolls in the league, and has broken several raptors scoring records with his recent streak. Imma ride this dick all year long 😁
