Is Jared Sullinger A Good Keeper League Option?
Today we are going to take a look at buying low on some good keeper league options. The recommendations I am going to be dishing out are for owners who are all but completely eliminated from playoff contention. We will be looking at buying low on some players and trying with as much certainty as we can to examine how much value they will hold next season. This can be a very tricky thing, so the main evaluation here is actual basketball talent. We want to be able to notice if a player is taking advantage of being on a bad team and racking up minutes and stats with hopes of signing a contract that he is not worth.
Now obviously none of us have ‘Biff’s sports almanac’ so we can not predict the future, but we can do our homework and try to evaluate all the things we know to make a foggy picture as clear as possible. Some of these players will be done for the year because of injury and that is what will make them a buy-low option. Some of them are players who I anticipate to take on a greater role and see an increase in minutes and production.
