This NBA season has been plagued by injuries, impacting team performances and fantasy leagues alike. With several star players sidelined, strategic trades are essential for fantasy managers.
Donovan Mitchell of the Cleveland Cavaliers is a prime buy-low candidate, as his scoring is down despite solid shooting percentages due to reduced playing time. Meanwhile, Trey Murphy III of the New Orleans Pelicans is worth targeting as he returns from injury.
Jordan Poole of the Washington Wizards is a sell-high option due to potential regression in his shooting. OG Anunoby of the New York Knicks, despite solid stats, poses a risk with his injury history and heavy minutes.
Norman Powell of the Los Angeles Clippers should be held onto as he steps up in the absence of Paul George, while Jrue Holiday of the Boston Celtics is a player to monitor for improvement as he adjusts to his new team.
