Chicago: The NBA Cup is here, and it’s shaking things up a bit. This week, fantasy managers have a chance to take a closer look at their teams. Making the right trade can really give your squad a boost. So, let’s chat about some players to consider buying low, selling high, or just holding onto.
First up, Coby White from the Chicago Bulls. He’s had a solid season so far, averaging 19.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 5.1 assists. He’s also hitting 2.6 three-pointers a game and shooting a career-best 44.7% from the field. With Zach LaVine out for a while and Lonzo Ball missing the whole season, White’s been getting a lot of minutes—about 37 a game.
But here’s the kicker: he’s been in a bit of a shooting slump lately, hitting just 39.6% from the field over his last ten games. That’s dropped his average to 15.1 points during that stretch. Still, he’s got a solid season average of 18.1 points and 3.3 three-pointers. Once he finds his rhythm again, those numbers should bounce back. Plus, if the Bulls decide to trade LaVine, White could see even more opportunities.
Now, let’s talk about some players to sell. Joel Embiid just came back from a knee injury and had a monster game with 31 points and 12 rebounds. But he’s been injury-prone, so it might be smart to trade him while his value is high.
Jordan Poole from the Wizards is another one to think about. He’s been playing well, averaging 20.4 points, but the Wizards are struggling. With their season going south, he might not get the minutes he needs as they start resting players.
On the flip side, RJ Barrett from the Raptors is someone to hold onto. He’s having a breakout season with 23.6 points and 6.6 rebounds. With injuries hitting the Raptors hard, he’s likely to be a key player moving forward.
Lastly, CJ McCollum from the Pelicans is worth keeping an eye on. He’s been scoring well, but with injuries to his teammates, he could see a lot of shot attempts. Just keep in mind there’s some risk involved.
