Episode notes

ADVICE

Grab Andre Drummond

Add Andre Drummond immediately when available as an obvious center streaming option.
Monitor Joel Embiid's status, but Drummond is a must-roster while Embiid is out.

INSIGHT

Know Mid-Tier Limits

Many mid-tier adds like Bilal and Keegan Murray offer defensive stats but low scoring/usage ceilings.
These players are useful for spot starts but rarely become must-hold season-long assets.

ADVICE

Avoid Reactive Drops

Avoid reactive drops after one game; dropping Luca Cornet after a bad outing is poor asset management.
Evaluate role stability and upcoming schedule before burning waiver moves.
