Who do y’al think are some players that will have a “leap” this season? By “leap” I mean more mins this season via starting or off the bench? Are there specific players you are targeting or hoping they get mins this season?

Here are the results from my 12T points lock in league draft.

Top end of the draft went pretty standard. Yaxel maybe went a little higher than normal, but after summer league I’m sure he’s gonna be valued higher.

Would love to hear what you guys think. Where there were values or some reaches. Love the discussions and hope this helps anyone who hasn’t draft yet.

Hi everyone !

Our league is entering its second season, and since it's a free league, we have a few inactive accounts. We're looking to replace ~5 inactive teams. We've got a fun league going on, message me and ask to join!

• Standard points Sleeper lock-in format
• Lottery system for draft picks to limit tanking
• Three active co-commissioners
• Very democratic process for changing rules and making any updates
• Extremely silly group of folks!!

I have 1.01 and 1.03 in the upcoming draft, no idea what the guy who has 1.02 is interested in so I’m debating on what to do with the 1.01. I truly have no idea where he is leaning and but I know who I pick first will effect his decision. I like Peterson, but I don’t think he’s a 1.01 for me

It is a 12 team, 9cat league that I'm joining. Here is my dispersal draft results. What are your thoughts? Should I be targeting anyone or set? Keen to hear thoughts!

Amen Thompson

AJD was taken at 1.01 and I’m debating on who to take at 1.02 here. I’m highly considering Caleb Wilson but wanted some input.

Help me out asap, I am in between a retool and competing and I don’t who to take. I will be on the hook for Amens new contract but also less risky than DP. Got sent this offer.

1. VJ Edgecombe Years $9.02, $9.74, $10.52, $11.36

2. Domantas Sabonis $34.99, $37.99

3. Jaylen Brown $27.99, $30.33

4. Josh Hart $16.33

5. Day'Ron Sharpe $16.74, $18.08

6. Herb Jones $18.95, $20.47

7. Alex Caruso $15.39, $16.62

8. Dominic Barlow $3.15

9. Brook Lopez $16.74, $18.08

10. Jaxson Hayes $6.30

11. Josh Okogie $1.35

It's 30T 9cat 15 roster league. I still have a MLE to sign a decent player in free agency and need to sign 3 minimum players. Cap space is basically full. Have 3 firsts from now til 2030. MLE is 2 Years $1.25-$8.25 or 3 Years $2-$16.50. Minimums are 1 Year $1 or 2 Years 1$ or 1+1 $1.

Any end of bench guys that can crack into top 10 rotations that you would recommend for my minimum pick ups?

12 team sleeper, lock in points leagues.

I loved Mobley before last season but am now unsure. One year rental of LeBron? I would be getting Mobley.

CONTEXT: League has been running for three years now going onto four. I’ve made the finals the first 2 years and lost both with this past season being a down one (injuries). I’d love to hear some feedback on where this roster currently stands or what moves I can make to improve. BTW, I need to make one cut before the regular season!

PG - Damian Lillard
SG - Tyrese Haliburton
G - James Harden
SF - Trey Murphy
PF - Nic Claxton
F - Matas Buzelis
C - Evan Mobley
UTIL - Isaiah Hartenstein

Bench - Darius Garland, Brandin Podziemski, Isaiah Collier, Labaron Philon, Kingston Flemings, Quentin Grimes, Cason Wallace, Will Richard, Tari Eason, Cody Williams, Caleb Wilson, Derik Queen, Mitchell Robinson, Day’Ron Sharpe

IR - Jalen Williams

Taxi Squad - Zuby Ejiofor, Bruce Thornton, Devin Carter, Ron Holland, Joan Beringer, Jase Richardson

Hey y'all, just got into a 10 man Lock In dynasty league. I've currently got Hali and Keyonte, and I reached out about SGA. This is what he shot to me.

I personally lean that Keyonte is playing above his head some, plus with DP coming. Plus Hali off injury year.I lean yes, but in a vacuum, what do y'all think?

To be fair, I'm also a Thunder diehard and biased lol.

My 2 players I have better then Hali is Ant and Tatum.

10 team points league

Trying to trade for the 1st pick. Adding Trae Young in the trade and trying to think which one I should add to the trade.

Who would you rather have Ausar or Coward

9CAT, 12 team league

I’m so torn on who to draft. Got lottery luck and landed picks 2 & 3. Assuming Boozer goes 1, it’s probably a no-brainer, just take Peterson and Dybantsa and I’m overthinking it but who would you take with 2 & 3 to fit this roster:

G: Brunson, Donovan Mitchell, Quickley, Ayo, Podz, Sexton, Poole, Shead, Drake Powell

F: Markkanen, Paolo, Zion, Jaylen Brown, Julian Champagnie, Camara, Clowney

C: AD, Lively, Diabete, Kalkbrenner

I inquired about trading down from 3 to 4 but no dice on that. Again I might be overthinking it but I’m torn about leaving Caleb Wilson on the board.

Appreciate everyone’s thoughts in advance.

I got offered Towns for my Garland, Day’Ron Sharpe, & Terrance Shannon Jr. I acknowledge that towns is the much better player—but in this type of format you only get one game per week so depth is king.

Context: I won it last year so I’m still in bit of a win now mode. However I have been doing a slow soft sell for younger players. I’m also far from the best team going into this year.

Team standouts: Kawhi, Jaylen Brown, Bam, Garland, OG, Dame, Aaron Gordon, DeMar, Miles Bridges, Coby White, Queta, Norman Powell, John Collins, Steinbach, Meleek Thomas).

Scoring:
Points scored: 0.5
3 point shot made: 0.5
Rebound/Assist: 1
Steal/Block: 2
Turnover: -1
DD: 1
TD: 2

I acknowledge that KAT is better than Garland but with age, and it being only a one game per week lock in format. Would you do this trade?

Hey guys I have an offer on the table and wondering if it’s worth it, Naz Reid has been traded to the Hornets so he’s role is a bit bigger now, so his avenged, might go up so just wondering if the deal is worth taking, I’m a rebuilding team trying to maximise the teams value so wondering your opinions on this potential move

Thank you all opinions are appreciated 🤝

Looking to get amen and was thinking of using Evan Mobley it might not end up being a straight up one for one just want to gauge who people think is better

Need help with this pick, not sure who to go with. Have drafted Flemings and Mara so far.
12 team points dynasty league.
My team currently is:

Curry
Booker
Morant
Mathurin
Jaren Jackson
Sengun
Duran
Claxton
Dosunmu
Topic
Derozan
Vassell
Bey
Grant
Whitmore
Tre Johnson

which side wins 12T points lock in. I made a post earlier and owner added a 2nd. Am i giving too much in matas + zubac. Is bam still worth trading for?

2.01 will be either Flemings or Morez Johnson. For 2.02 I really like Carr and will go for him earlier than most here.

My team is young and competing but I’m filled with good guards (Young, Reaves, Amen, Flagg, Fanvleet). I like NAW he’s good and still under 30 but I rlly like some of these players in this class. What would yall do?

Who I currently have.

Mikel Brown Jr.
Egor Demin
Michael Porter Jr.
Julius Randle
Joel Embiid
Darius Acuff Jr.
Kevin Durant
Cedric Coward
Jaime Jaquez Jr.
Kawhi Leonard
Nate Ament
Cam Carr
Khaman Maluach
Kevin Porter Jr.
Hannes Steinbach
Maleek Thomas

I have picks most likely 1.10 and 1.09 and 1.06 plus a top 3 pick in the 2027 draft. These are 16 man rosters we may add a roster slot for 17 or 18 players. Older guys in my league have hardly any value at all because the top 2 teams are so good that people can’t compete with them… that’s why I went and got a lot of picks for the future.

9 cat H2H dynasty league.

I am in a mini-rebuild and wonder if I should move Amen. My other players are Sengun, Reaves, Buzelis, Zubac, Castle, Hartenstein, Philon, Swain. I dont own any future 1st round picks.

What is his trade value in sleeper lock in pts?
Two seconds? A player plus second? Firsts? Young players?
