ANECDOTE

Morning Hydration Routine

He credits it for better focus, energy, and performance on the road.

ADVICE

Be Selective On Three-Game Days

Stream carefully on Tuesday because only three NBA games limit available pickups.
Prioritize adds that will actually play meaningful minutes given the tiny player pool.

ADVICE

Target Hawks Bigs If Young Sits

If Trae Young is out, target Hawks role players like Marvin Bagley or Tristan Vukcevic depending on Bagley's status.
Monitor Luke Kennard and Porzingis rest/designations for secondary rotation impacts.
