Knees could be an issue though. Might hold off till I see the lineups

Ooh, didn't know they were unlimited. Makes sense. No guarantee to start the year is he?

3 per week. I think Scythe was just exaggerating. I think Ace is worth 'the risk' at that price. Looks awesome but yeah hopefully his body doesnt let him down
I really like the flex position for this game. I'll probably use it to go two gun centres at some point.
I really wish they had injury notifications for this and the NFL Fantasy game. It's a pain having to look up all the injuries every week.
This is my starting team:
Jokic on a 2-game week, so I'm starting without him.

Final iteration i think.. faded Nembhard to Pritchard, but as much for just a POD as anything else, both should be solid.
Bailey/Bench subject to last second changes.. Sheppard might swap to one of the Brooklyn PG Rooks

We're thinking very similarly, although my latest iteration goes with one extra rookie on-court in order to upgrade a mid-tier guy to a proper top-liner – i.e. at one point had Nembhard + another 10-11 mill option (a few different ones were tried here), but landed on doing Booker and an extra rook instead given that VJ's role will be solid (and hopefully) playable early. Especially worthwhile with best-nine, IMO.
Had Joker all preseason, but that's a lot of cash to burn on a guy who only has five games in the first two weeks. Upgrade target instead.
Queta, Sheppard and Harper are all question marks still, although I'll most likely give Sheppard a run given the basement price. Had Demin over Harper at one stage based on role, but now it doesn't look like Demin will start initially, so probably passing.
Quite a few of the rookies are only on 2-game weeks, so you get to have a look at them before they increase in price. I think this is the case with Sheppard, Edgecombe, Queen, Bailey. So you could start without them.

It's a good point, although I'd rather not lock myself into trades in advance if I can help it, given injuries/form concerns will inevitably pop up early and you'll want trades available for those.
VJ and Bailey in particular are pretty much no-brainers, don't need to see more from them than I already have. It's a worthwhile consideration with Sheppard though, I suppose.
Have Queen in Dynasty, and wouldn't be too worried about picking him from the start given he only just returned to practice 3-4 days ago. I'd be somewhat surprised if he plays in week one and if he does, it'll be in a very limited role.

suprised he isn’t more owned, heavily underpriced for seemingly no reason

do you think that everyone can’t tell the difference between the two? lol. Based on his scores last year and players who averaged similar jaylin should be 7.9 mil, yet he is 3.5 mil basement price for some reason.

i don’t think games played impacts it, for example Tre Mann played only 12 games, averaged less than jaylin yet is 4 mil more
expensive.
your point on the minutes is fair though, but with holmgren and ihart starting together i see him getting enough to easily make a little cash from basement price. he’s priced below players who signed like 2 days ago lol.

He's definitely underpriced, but OKC will stagger iHart and Holmgren with different lineups a fair bit. Will also go small at times, like they did in the playoffs. Would probably rather fork out a little more for a C who'll get bigger minutes (like Queta, even though he's ordinary).
Get the logic though.
then barely seen again

Surely just a case of a lot bargain shoppers.
EDIT: Does look to be ridiculously high even for $3.5mil players.
Nikola Topic the next highest at 10% ownership at the price range is also strange considering he's out after a testicular op.
