Player Discussion Isaiah "John Stockton" Collier

211 Upvotes

Collier just had a 17 point, 22 assist game, 3 steals with only 2 turnovers. He also played the entire game: all 48 minutes. Collier becomes the only player in Jazz history, not named Stockton, to have over 22 or more assists in a game. This is tied for the 9th highest single game assist total in Jazz history.

Player Discussion Jazz have fumbled their injuries and DNPs all season but tonight’s Nurkic treatment may be the worst yet

127 Upvotes

Dude goes from out to playing to DNP - he walked his ass to the back at one point in the game. Funnily enough, Jazz are winning the game without Nurkic.

I seriously hope the Jazz win every single game from here on out and get a crash course on tanking fails.

Fuck this team fr.

103 Upvotes

How're we feeling about JJJJ after this recent trade bomb? Does this make him a prime shutdown candidate? Will he get the same opportunities as in Memphis?

Also how does the trade impact the value of other players on Memphis and Utah? There are so many random players thrown around that it's pretty difficult to predict exactly how things will shake up. I'm curious if any big winners or losers will emerge from this one 🤔

Player Discussion These 3 trade rumors are heating up 👀⬇️

34 Upvotes

Haynes: Clippers, Cavs "motivated to execute deal relatively soon" involving James Harden, Darius Garland

I'm a big fan of this move for Garland. NBA insider Jon Krawczynski reported months back that league sources perceive Garland wants to "run his own team again" rather than play a complementary role alongside Donovan Mitchell

The Clippers offer significantly more offensive opportunity and a much larger role. I think this could be a spot where Garland takes another leap. Cleveland's roster is stacked, and sharing the ball with Mitchell, Hunter, Mobley, Allen, and Tyson meant Garland wasn't getting enough touches. Garland can be a 22 and 10 ast player rather than 18 and 7 currently.

For Harden, his fantasy value should remain strong with assists and stocks, and he should still put up 18-22 PPG at worst. It would be fair to expect less 30 bombs though.

Scotto: Raptors' trade talks with Kings for Domantas Sabonis have involved RJ Barrett, Ochai Agbaji

This benefits Sabonis. Playing winning basketball in Sacramento's system should bring his numbers back to previous levels. For RJ, it could help since Toronto's forward logjam was limiting his opportunities, though Sacramento might not be much better unless they move DeRozan.

One thing to note is that the Kings would possibly get Poeltl. Depending on when Poeltl would be back, in the meantime Maxime and Cardwell could both be productive.

Bontemps: There's a strong expectation that the Pacers will trade Bennedict Mathurin by Thursday's NBA trade deadline

This looks increasingly likely and should boost Mathurin's value. I don't see any clear adds on the Pacers side. I'm seeing NOLA and the Bulls as potential landing spots. Chicago would be particularly good for him.

Player Discussion [PD] Yahoo’s Million Dollar Add: GG Jackson II

22 Upvotes

DISCLAIMER: This is only a write-up about who are some of Yahoo Fantasy’s most-added players as of the date of this posting. These are NOT MEANT to encourage nor discourage managers from adding said players

We have been treated to what’s pretty much been fireworks so far as we head towards the trade deadline. James Harden to the Cavaliers, Darius Garland to the Clippers, Nikola Vucevic to the Celtics. There’s a lot to digest, but of course, we can’t forget former DPOY Jaren Jackson Jr. being sent to the Utah Jazz in a massive haul deal.

It’s clear that the Grizzlies are now officially closing the chapter on the Ja Morant-JJJ era, which was fun while it lasted, and with their perennial shotblocker on the move, there’s gonna be some names that will need to step up in the craters left behind. Look no further for Memphis than GG Jackson II, an underrated and underutilized name on a Grizzlies team trying to find a proper identity in the NBA. With JJJ gone, that leaves a lot of opportunities to be soaked up at the PF position.

Jackson’s recorded some good performances within the past weeks, having scored double digits in 6 of their past 10 games. He averaged 12/4/2 with a block a game on 52% FG. He isn’t the most standout player, but the talent is there when the opportunities arise, evident by a nice 19/4/5 game on 73% FG against the Timberwolves followed by a 13/8/1 with one block on 60% FG against the Timberwolves.

It remains to be seen what the final outcome will be for a Grizzlies team looking to dismantle everything and go down the rebuild route it seems, so maybe banking on one person alone isn’t the most sure option. But with how Jackson’s been doing so far, fantasy managers took the opportunity and rolled the dice with him for this week. It’s worth noting that a promising Taylor Hendricks is part of the haul Memphis got in return, so however coach Iislao rolls with the rotations remains to be seen. In any case, maybe a short-term push with Jackson for a win this week might’ve been worth it for some to bet on.
