Episode Details

Nikola Jokic's latest injury throws a wrench into fantasy basketball lineups—are the Denver Nuggets at risk of sliding before the All-Star break? Josh Lloyd dissects the fallout from Jokic's knee issue, forecasting extended absences and breaking down must-add waiver targets like Jonas Valanciunas, Aaron Gordon, Peyton Watson, and Christian Braun for fantasy managers looking to stay ahead.

The episode spotlights key sell-high and regression candidates dominating the NBA fantasy scene, including breakout performances from Jalen Johnson, Lauri Markkanen, Keyonte George, Michael Porter Jr., and young guns Anthony Black and Alex Sarr. Josh Lloyd investigates which surging players are primed to cool off due to unsustainable shooting, returning teammates, or role changes. Will fantasy managers cash in on hot streaks from Andrew Wiggins and Kel'el Ware, or hold out too long and watch their value crash? Get actionable insights on maximizing fantasy value as the NBA season heats up.
