Saturday NBA Fantasy Basketball Waiver W...

Josh Lloyd, Locked On Podcast Network
About this episode

NBA Saturday brings chaos with seven games spread from early matinees to late-night thrillers—are the Sacramento Kings’ baffling decisions holding them back or opening streaming goldmines for fantasy managers? Josh Lloyd breaks down key injuries to Kawhi Leonard, Brandon Miller, LaMelo Ball, and Paolo Banchero, deciphers murky return timelines, and spotlights teams like the Orlando Magic, Grizzlies, and Hawks with evolving rotations and streaming opportunities.

Strategic insights focus on maximizing fantasy lineups during a back-to-back-heavy weekend, with top streamers including Kris Dunn, Jalen Smith, Bruce Brown, and must-watch deep-league targets like Maxime Raynaud. Key schedule chunks, injury management situations, and questionable coaching decisions—like JB Bickerstaff’s handling of Ausar Thompson—set the stage for game-changing moves in points and category leagues. Which waiver wire additions could tip your week, and will Derik Queen’s production hold outside of garbage time? Don’t miss Josh’s expert strategy that’s pushing Locked On Fantasy Basketball toward 100k subscribers.
