Success in fantasy basketball hinges on astutely navigating the waiver wire. The dynamic nature of the season—with injuries, trades, and rotation changes—makes it imperative to identify valuable players on the free agency market. This weekly guide aims to spotlight players at each position who are widely available in ESPN leagues, focusing on those who can provide substantial stats and diverse contributions.

Keyonte George of the Utah Jazz is a standout option for point guard, showcasing versatility as a combo guard and playmaker. For deeper leagues, Scoot Henderson of the Portland Trail Blazers is gaining offensive responsibility, while Davion Mitchell's new starting role with the Miami Heat highlights his potential for assists and steals.

Among shooting guards, Donte DiVincenzo is emerging as a defensive asset and offensive contributor with the Timberwolves. Shaedon Sharpe's highlight-reel dunks and increasing offensive production make him enticing, while Quentin Grimes of the 76ers capitalizes on increased opportunities due to injuries in his team's lineup.

The forward position sees Bol Bol of the Suns being utilized for his rebounding and rim protection, while Kyle Filipowski is being given the chance to shine for the Jazz. At center, Zach Collins’ dual-role play for the Bulls makes him a must-add, especially for those in need of rebounds and assists.
