NBA Waiver Wire: Standard League Adds For Week 21

The NBA is an every day business. That means Fantasy Basketball is a 24/7 sport. Remember that.

While the majority of the sports world is caught up in the NCAA Tournament and March Madness, this is your opportunity to strike. Use the diversion to swoop up players while people are filling up brackets and looking at buzzer beaters. It doesn't mean you can't enjoy the games as well, but know that it's rare for week-long events to take up people's collective head space. Especially with seasons coming down to a close. In the words of Sidney Deane, "you might not get another shot."

As a reminder, for standard (10-12 team) league adds, we use a general rule of thumb of an ownership rate of under 50% on Yahoo. All position eligibility based on Yahoo leagues.

Standard League Adds for Week 20

Wilson Chandler , SG, SF, PF – Denver Nuggets

Ownership: 48%

9.9 PPG / 5.1 REB / 2.1 AST / 1.1 3PT

Chandler is a player that has been targeted for several weeks now. He has been on a tear lately, but with the return of Paul Millsap from injury, there was uncertainty on how we would fare on a fully healthy Nuggets roster.

The answer is very well.

In his last 10 games, Chandler has played over 31 minutes in eight of those games. He is always close to or leading the team in minutes played. During that 10-game span, Chandler is averaging 15.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.7 threes per game. Not to mention Chandler qualifies at three different roster spots.

The Nuggets score the eighth most points per game. Given the amount of time Chandler receives, his recent production and his roster versatility, he should be owned in all standard leagues.

 

Justise Winslow, SF, PF – Miami Heat

Ownership 32%

6.8 PPG / 5.3 REB / 2.1 AST / 0.9 STL

Miami head coach Eric Spoelstra has morphed the Heat into a position-less squad where anyone can play any position, and any player can see their minutes increase.

Justise Winslow is that guy. As rumblings began to surface of a possible NBA bust, Winslow has been on fire over the last five games. He is averaging 12.2 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 2.2 steals and 1.4 threes while shooting 53 percent from the field and 58 percent from beyond the arc. Winslow is pulling in fifth round value and showing now signs of wavering.

On Tuesday, Winslow played a team-high 39 minutes and has become one of Spoelstra's first guys off the bench and one of his trusted players to finish games.

Coach is obviously experimenting with the roster as Miami battles for a playoff spot. Winslow has been the main beneficiary.

 

Caris LeVert, PG, SG, SF – Brooklyn Nets

Ownership 32%

11.8 PPG / 3.7 REB / 4.0 AST / 1.1 STL

Consider this choice a gamble. Caris LeVert has the scoring potential, the roster versatility and the situation to be a very productive option down the stretch for your fantasy basketball team.

The Nets will have to make a decision on how they want to move forward next year. They have a lot of young talented perimeter players, and will use the final stretch as a try out. LeVert seems to have begun his ascent.

On Monday, LeVert scored 27 points with five threes against the Clippers. On Tuesday, he scored 10 points, grabbed four rebounds, handed out three assists and notched two steals. In his last five games, LeVert has 13.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 steals, 0.6 blocks and 1.6 3-pointers on 46 percent shooting.

If he can continue to get more playing time, he will only add to those averages.
