General Thoughts
Tyus Jones is a nice pick up this late. Again, it is challenging finding assists and Jones averaged 4.8 APG last year. He is going to be the primary back up for Morant this year in Memphis and posted 11th round value in the final months of the 2018-19 season in a limited role with the Wolves.
Nerlens could also be interesting here with rumours swirling about the Thunder possibly trading Steven Adams. If any trade for Adams were to materialize, Noel would be a “must grab” player with per36 numbers like 11.1 RPG, 2.3 SPG and 3.3 BPG.
At the end of this draft here are how the teams rank, based on Yahoo Projected Fantasy Basketball Rankings. I never read too much in projections but it is still nice to see a bit of validation to the team you draft. Predictably, I was rock bottom in blocks and second to last in rebounds, but was mid to top in every other projected category.
