HOT & STEAMY Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Action

Waiver wire chaos shakes up NBA fantasy basketball as Keldon Johnson, Tre Johnson, and Naji Marshall surge in pickups while managers cut ties with Kelly Oubre Jr., Christian Braun, and Jordan Poole. Are these hot streaks sustainable, or are fantasy players falling for fool’s gold? Josh Lloyd spotlights must-add names like Jalen Duren, Peyton Watson, and Vince Williams Jr., and warns against dropping Daniel Gafford and Tari Eason despite recent lulls or injuries. 

Strategic advice dominates the conversation: from exploiting injury replacements and short-term streamers like Jamal Shead and Mitchell Robinson, to exposing underperforming roster cloggers such as Anfernee Simons and Bobby Portis. With new injury reports, shifting minutes, and trade rumors fueling uncertainty, get the sharpest insights on who to add, drop, and watch, plus why holding onto outdated “name value” can sink your season. Stay ahead of the competition as Josh Lloyd breaks down every critical fantasy hoops move.
