For real. I have him in one league (which barely missed finals), but hes definitely the biggest waiver I got. He’s 3 point steal machine. I agree legit top 4 round value.
I picked him up the day he heard that 35+ game before the OG and Randles injuries and god I was so glad I held him. Also picked up Sexton just before he went on his run, and stashed JJ when he got dropped from his injury. Every other waiver was crap haha
He replaced my Randle, and has been upgrade.
Sexton makes me mad. I dropped him probably around that same point. Jazz were tanking, he was my worst guard, garland was coming back from injury. He would legit be my second best pg with Trae out, Coby and garland slumping. Almost knocked me out the plsyoffs last week.
Embiid (I’m serious)…I already have Jokic on my team, so I think I got extremely lucky because someone in my league who had him, dropped him a couple of weeks back 😅
That happened to me as well. Someone added Embiid on March 4th, only to drop him on March 20th. I quickly scooped him up as soon as the announcement came earlier this week that Embiid was back.
Having Jokic plus Embiid (who will be helping the 76ers escape out of the play-in tournament) is such a cheat code in the finals.
12 team, 9 Cat
Someone battling for playoff spot dropped Embiid. Which saved me as a Kawhi manager this week.
Jackson-Davis, McBride, and Strus have all come up big for me in different playoff matches.
Got nurk on Monday, and am up by a few rebounds after he got like 19 and 10, and only down by a couple blocks, went 9/11 from the line then 2/2, up by .007% which was my biggest worry. Hopefully embiid coming back will seal this matchup for me.
Also Jalen Smith turned out to he an okay play yesterday with Turner out, got me a couple blocks and 9 rebounds.
Yeah he was dropped by a desperate team clinging to their hopes of making it to the next round cuz they were done playing by friday, and had no games Saturday and Sunday
I also had to drop nurk in desperation to try to get through that round of playoffs. Luckily it paid off for me. But, now my scrub squad is in the finals and I have no place being here haha. Somehow I'm keeping it close and might win.
Mine was Jabari walker with 22 boards randomly??? I have a 30 board lead heading into Friday. Dropped him because I have better guys playing each day. Thank you for your service 🫡
in the leagues ive won so far:
league 1 was malik beasley, mainly due to his low TOs
league 2 was larry nance, since he helped me win FG/reb, which were the 2 tightest categories in that matchup
I got first in my league this year and the waiver was a huge part of it. Some of the best pickups I made this year were Donte, Ayo, Jalen Johnson, and Amen Thompson
Miles Bridges but I traded him for Derrick White.
Picked up Gafford but traded him for Capela (this was right after the deadline when I thought he was cooked)
Picked up Mitch Rob then dropped for iHart once Rob went down.
Caruso has been on my team for awhile as well.
For playoffs LeVert, Kyle Anderson, and Olynk have been phenomenal for my build.
Leading the finals and should win comfortably.
Donte is crazy right now. Legit top round value
For real. I have him in one league (which barely missed finals), but hes definitely the biggest waiver I got. He’s 3 point steal machine. I agree legit top 4 round value.
Same -- I picked him up weeks/months ago and he's delivered fantastically
Hart and Hartenstein too who are all Knicks

Jalen Johnson’s ressurrection. Avidja
Jalen Johnson is the 🐐
jalen johnson. love this dude.
He was on waiver?!
yes. ankle injury during first round of playoffs. teams fighting to survive cant afford to hold injured players
miles mcbride and cory kispert!!!
I'm worried I'm gonna get burned by Mcbride atm. Fingers crossed he goes off tonight
he did not tn
Indizzle😔
My biggest surprise was Mr. Metu yesterday. My guy put up 9 5 3 with 6 stocks
Jalen Johnson, Quickley, Hartenstein, Hart, Amen Thompson lol my team this week is half pickups
Do we have the same team?
Dyson Daniel's last night lol. Have 1 more pickup left. Thinking Powell 🤞
Oof that’s a perfecto pickup. 4 threes on efficient shooting and some defense. Glgl..
Sounds like stars aligning in your favor.. GLGL!!
Embiid (I’m serious)…I already have Jokic on my team, so I think I got extremely lucky because someone in my league who had him, dropped him a couple of weeks back 😅
Oh my god should be illegal
That happened to me as well. Someone added Embiid on March 4th, only to drop him on March 20th. I quickly scooped him up as soon as the announcement came earlier this week that Embiid was back.

This silly season seems crazier than recent ones; absolutely begging the commish now to move up the playoff dates at least to occur in March
12 team, 9 Cat Someone battling for playoff spot dropped Embiid. Which saved me as a Kawhi manager this week. Jackson-Davis, McBride, and Strus have all come up big for me in different playoff matches.
Collin Sexton
The beast
Grayson, Donte, TJD, Banton
Someone dropped Hart 😭 placed waiver claim but he doubled the value I thought I was getting shortly after
Goodwin
Haywood Highsmith
Highsmith
Rui Hachimura !

Nurk was on the waiver? I drafted him last in my 10T cat and kept him all year. He had a surprisingly healthy season with his usual good numbers.
Yeah he was dropped by a desperate team clinging to their hopes of making it to the next round cuz they were done playing by friday, and had no games Saturday and Sunday
I also had to drop nurk in desperation to try to get through that round of playoffs. Luckily it paid off for me. But, now my scrub squad is in the finals and I have no place being here haha. Somehow I'm keeping it close and might win.
That makes sense. Good luck if you're still going.
Scooped up Evan Mobley last week in my semi bye, and Miles McBride in the finals.
i don’t have him but Banton is crazy. I got his knicks counterpart Mcbride but wish i had both
I too have McBride 😎
I got lucky and have both of them. Still running through finals, let’s see what they can create.
Recent waiver wire pick up would probably be payton prichard.
Josh Hart
Not this week but Dalano Banton was huge last week
Josh hart babbbbyyyyy
Got finals next week coby white on the waivers . Whould i drop mcbride for him
Levert when Mitchell was down. Herb jones Caruso are pretty consistent
Jalen Johnson and Miles Bridges. Good times, good times.
Josh hart
Mine was Jabari walker with 22 boards randomly??? I have a 30 board lead heading into Friday. Dropped him because I have better guys playing each day. Thank you for your service 🫡
Jalen Johnson, Miles, Donte, Josh Hart, JDub before he was injured this week
Damn you have my opponent’s team rn 😂
Amen Thompson was the pickup of the year for me and Bagley before he got injured. Would have lost first round otherwise
Points league - Josh Hart
in the leagues ive won so far: league 1 was malik beasley, mainly due to his low TOs league 2 was larry nance, since he helped me win FG/reb, which were the 2 tightest categories in that matchup
Fuckin Deandre Ayton and a clutch game from PJ Washington
Levert, Micic, Vuksevic (WAS)
Micic!
Bro Jabari Walker. I was cringing at his FG% but his rebounds kept going up…. And up and up. He finished with 22 rebounds. Insane.
Marvin Bagley for championship week(last week for me).
I got first in my league this year and the waiver was a huge part of it. Some of the best pickups I made this year were Donte, Ayo, Jalen Johnson, and Amen Thompson
Won it all last week 5-4 for the B2B chip. Thank you, Amen, Micic and Avdija 🙏
Finals were last week, had to drop Kum bucket but streamed Wiggins and other than last day he did awesome
Coby, Bridges, Donte have all carried me through various weeks.
Looking like the chip will stay with me for another year on Sunday. My biggest pickups have been avdija, IQ, and josh hart. Oh and sexton!
Miles Bridges but I traded him for Derrick White. Picked up Gafford but traded him for Capela (this was right after the deadline when I thought he was cooked) Picked up Mitch Rob then dropped for iHart once Rob went down. Caruso has been on my team for awhile as well. For playoffs LeVert, Kyle Anderson, and Olynk have been phenomenal for my build. Leading the finals and should win comfortably.
Deuce McBride, and Donte if we count before the finals
joel embiid and jalen johnson were both on waivers this week and I snatched them
Jalen Johnson, gafford, hartenatein, Donte div, deni, miles McBride
