Episode notes

ADVICE

Be Cautious With Keegan Murray

Hold Keegan Murray but temper expectations because his usage is very limited and upside is capped.
Treat him as a bench depth piece rather than a must-roster starter.

ADVICE

Don't Panic Drop Short-Term Breakouts

Consider rostering Denise Jenkins while he's hot but beware the Pistons' three-day gap and impending lineup changes.
Don't automatically drop him during the layoff; monitor Ivey/Asar returns before deciding.

INSIGHT

Moody Is High-Variance Streamer

Moses Moody flashes high upside in bursts but remains extremely boom-or-bust for fantasy.
His value is streamable rather than a stable roster asset due to inconsistent minutes and role.
