Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 15: Tyus Jones, Josh Richardson, Immanuel Quickley
The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

Mason Plumlee (C, CHA) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 57% of leagues ANALYSIS: With less than three weeks to go before we go through the February 9 trade deadline, the rumor mill is heating up and getting filled with headlines involving The Last Plumlee. It makes all of the sense, obviously, considering the Charlotte Hornets […]
Immanuel Quickley (PG, NYK) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: While it is true that Tom Thibodeau has moved from an early-season 10-man rotation to a 9-man one since mid-December, there is a deeper truth baked into that: it's really a six-man rotation with three ancillary reserves added to it. And the […]
Mitchell Robinson (C, NYK) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 57% of leagues ANALYSIS: You might not understand this post getting written this week after Mitchell Robinson suffered an injury, underwent surgery, and is expected to stay on the shelves for three weeks until he gets re-evaluated. And I'd understand your angle. This is more of a […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Hawks have struggled this season but they seem to have found a solution to their woes, having gone 7-3 in their last 10 games through Saturday and losing one after having won their prior six. While finding De'Andre Hunter in the […]
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (SG, DEN) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 18% of leagues ANALYSIS: We're entering that part of the season when folks all the nation over start to realize that maybe, just maybe, the Nuggets are for real and Nikola Jokic inevitably will earn another MVP award. It's happened in the last two seasons and […]
Kyle Anderson (PF, MIN) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of leagues ANALYSIS: The last time I checked (Sunday morning), Rudy Gobert was labeled a "game-time decision" in the Wolves' injury report while teammate Karl-Anthony Towns is still expected out until the end of next month, if not more. In other words: Kyle Anderson SZN […]
Norman Powell (SF, LAC) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 24% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's now been a month of Norman Powell playing nightly for the Los Angeles Clippers after doing so to start the season but going to the shelves between November 29 and December 21. For some reason, though, it feels like most fantasy […]
Trey Murphy III (SF, NOP) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 18% of leagues ANALYSIS: With Zion Williamson out until the end of the month (if not more) and Brandon Ingram getting back for a month now but never actually making it to the court, Trey Murphy III has been one of the main beneficiaries from the […]
Thomas Bryant (C, LAL) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 24% of leagues ANALYSIS: Anthony Davis should be inching closer to returning to the hardwood but that's still not happened. In other words, keep starting Thomas Bryant while he keeps getting minutes as a starter on the Lake Show. Bryant's numbers have gone down a bit […]
Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 14
The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]
Malik Monk (SG, SAC) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's been a wild month for Malik Monk's shooting stroke. In the past 30 days and through Saturday, Monk has appeared in 13 games and he's hoisted a total of 137 shots from the field. The outcome: 53 FGM to 84 missed […]
Jabari Smith Jr. (PF, HOU) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of leagues ANALYSIS: I know that you can look at it from both perspectives, but if you don't think this is an extraordinary window of opportunity to grab some shares of Jabari Smith Jr., then you're looking at it from the wrong angle. Of course, […]

Kyle Anderson (SF, MIN) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 9% of leagues ANALYSIS: Now they are improving, now they are not. Now they look good, now they do not. It's the Wolves season for you, just in case. One thing has stayed the same for a bunch of weeks now, though, and that's Kyle Anderson […]
Max Strus (SF, MIA) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 6% of leagues ANALYSIS: With the Miami Heat struggling all season long in terms of finding results and, perhaps more worryingly, finding a proper rotation given the multiple injuries issues of their players, the types like Max Strus keep putting on bulky reps and logging starts […]
Josh Richardson (SG, SAS) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 6% of leagues ANALYSIS: Josh Richardson's season has been split into two similarly long parts to date. He appeared in 17 games before November 21 and then missed time until re-appearing on December 8. He started two games in the first half, and one in the […]
Jalen Williams (SG, OKC) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 23% of leagues ANALYSIS: A few weeks before the start of the season, before Chet Holmgren got injured and ruled out for his rookie year, Jalen Williams didn't feature on anybody's radar. That changed the minute Chet went down, and it became an absolute reality just […]
Tyus Jones (PG, MEM) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 13% of leagues ANALYSIS: Tyus Jones decided to re-ink his deal with the Grizzlies last offseason when he could have tested the FA waters and moved elsewhere while knowing about the presence of a certain Ja Morant in Memphis. Can't blame him, though, considering he fits […]
Alec Burks (SG, DET) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 6% of leagues ANALYSIS: Alec Burks does what Alec Burks does, no matter what. Of course, that wasn't entirely the case last year because 1) he played for the Knicks and you never know what's around the corner in New York, and 2) his coach was […]
Immanuel Quickley (PG, NYK) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 20% of leagues ANALYSIS: A week ago, I told you to be cautious about rostering and starting Immanuel Quickley. I told you not to get overly excited about his recent run of supremely great outcomes. It made sense, mostly because he clearly took advantage of RJ […]
Killian Hayes (PG, DET) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 33% of leagues ANALYSIS: Now that we're past the halfway mark, we can safely say it: the renaissance of Killian Hayes has been consummated. Yes, not having Cade Cunningham as a rival for the starting point guard role helps. Not playing for a high-stakes team helps. […]
Max Strus (SF, MIA) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 13
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Miami Heat found themselves lacking warm bodies in November and that helped Max Strus rack up as many as 12 consecutive starts back then, only missing on doing so on Nov. 1 (though he still had himself a day playing off […]
Zach Collins (C, SAS) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 13
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of leagues ANALYSIS: Zach Collins started his first game in nearly a month (Dec. 12) for the Spurs and did so in fantastic fashion: 18 points and 12 rebounds in a 35-minute dub-dub to go with five dimes on the spot. Collins had not grabbed […]
Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 13: Kevon Looney, Daniel Gafford, Alec Burks
The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

Mason Plumlee (C, CHA) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 13
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 45% of leagues ANALYSIS: We had a scare to close the 2022 calendar year in fear of losing Mason Plumlee, but it was all just a mirage. I'm talking, of course, about the lack of double-double outings put up by Plumlee between Dec. 16 and Dec. 26 […]
Herb Jones (SF, NOP) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 13
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: Herb Jones was forced out of a few games at the end of December going through health and safety protocols but he returned in time for the New Year's Eve matchup against the Grizzlies, having a nice 4-11-3-3 performance facing Memphis to […]
