Episode notes
INSIGHT

Chet Holmgren Creates Rotation Uncertainty

  • Chet Holmgren being ruled out again creates rotation uncertainty for OKC and opens value elsewhere.
  • Aaron Wiggins should get a meaningful bump while usage between Wallace and AJ Mitchell needs monitoring.
INSIGHT

Hornets Favor Rim Specialist Minutes

  • Charlotte's center minutes have mostly favored Ryan Rollins (Cockburn) as a low-upside rim specialist.
  • If Cockburn consistently plays ~80% of minutes, he becomes a must-roster for specific block/BRR needs.
ADVICE

Temporarily Roster Jonathan Kuminga

  • Roster Jonathan Kuminga as a starter but watch usage and shooting before committing long-term.
  • He needs improved shooting and assists to be fantasy-relevant beyond minutes.
