Fantasy Basketball Forecaster: February 3rd - 9th

Welcome to this week’s Fantasy Basketball Forecaster! In here you’ll find:

• Top 3 waiver wire adds (among all players under 50% owned ESPN)
• Leaders in each stat category over the last week
• Each team’s schedule ranking, based on opponent’s stats allowed, where the #1 ranked team faces the easiest fantasy schedule this week

3 players to add off waivers

1. Miles Bridges (63% rostered) — I’m breaking my 50% ownership here but Bridges has been a BEAST this past week, averaging 21 PPG/5.3 RPG/1.7 APG. If he’s available in your league (especially dynasty leagues) add him now!
2. Shabazz Napier (34% rostered) — He was on the list last week and remains on the list as he averaged 10.5 PPG/5 RPG/9 APG plus two steals per game this last week. He’s been balling for the Timberwolves.
3. Cody Zeller (41% rostered) — Ol’ Zeller is a must add for those looking to boaster their rebounding. Zeller is averaging 7.1 boards on the season, but coming off a week in which he posted 9.7 per game.

Strength of Schedule

Get ready for Bradley Beal to put forward some BIG numbers this week with the Wizards having the easiest schedule this week. Meanwhile, it’s going to be tough sledding for Damian Lillard and the Trail Blazers.
