INSIGHT

Short-Term Bigs Shine, Not Seasons Long

  • Andre Drummond and Tristan Vlahovic provided short-term block and rebound value when starters rested or missed games.
  • Josh Lloyd warns against adding them as long-term fantasy fixes; stream only on known absences.
ADVICE

Hold Thomas, Stream Replacement Guards

  • Hold Cam Thomas through initial hamstring concerns; expect at least a week out and avoid immediate drops.
  • Use Terrence Mann or Tyrese Martin as short-term streaming options while Thomas recovers.
ADVICE

Don't Chase One Start For Clowney

  • Do not overreact to Noah Clowney's 30-minute start unless it holds across multiple games.
  • Only consider him in very deep leagues; avoid the add in 12-team formats.
