Episode 1481
Two games, massive storylines.
Josh Lloyd recaps NBA Opening Night for fantasy basketball — the Oklahoma City Thunder’s win over the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors’ victory over the Los Angeles Lakers.
Alperen Sengun erupted for 39 points, cementing himself as a potential fantasy breakout. Chet Holmgren dazzled in his debut, while Jonathan Kuminga’s surprise start for Golden State shakes up the Warriors rotation.
Josh breaks down every key performance — what’s real, what’s noise, and what it all means for your fantasy team. He explains why you shouldn’t overreact to one game but also identifies the subtle trends that matter.
📊 Featuring analysis on Sengun’s improved shooting, Durant’s quiet debut, Holmgren’s usage, and Cason Wallace's monster night.
🏀 Plus: why Kuminga might be a sneaky early waiver add and what to watch in the Warriors’ new rotation.
