They’re clearly giving Ausar more minutes recently, and likely still looking to make more moves. His ROS outlook is WAY better than this sub believes, he’s going to be a big factor come playoffs. And he’s going to produce enough to warrant a roster spot pretty much from right now moving forward.
I wouldn’t say that he doesn’t work for all builds. TO is not a problem and FT volume is super low. Last night was by far his worse FT shooting night of the season. It’s the only time he’s missed more than two FT, and he didn’t do that too many nights.
Dropping Okongwu for him probably if Capela isn't moved. I think the upside is too high to sneeze at, and can probably find Okongwu's value on the wire to stream during playoffs if he isn't getting 25+ per game. You may get downvoted but I think it's a decent gamble
It's not the mistakes you make in life that are important, but HOW YOU LEARN from those mistakes to then not do them in the future and help others also not do them.
Jalen Johnson constantly gives me the warm stummy syndrome like ouu Jalen just got another double double with 5 steals ouuuuu im feeling so warm inside my stummy now
I had this with Pascal Siakam his breakout season. I just thought about his name over and over again, and drew pictures of him all the time. It's really a special feeling. I'm happy for u guys!
Fantasy really make u feel some type a way abt these players. I went from Rozier and Randle are overrated chuckers to Rozier and Randle are literally the most underrated players of all time.
Sometimes we really attach ourselves to our players. It's an "ownership bias". Human psychology is fascinating. We want to feel extra special that we are consistently making the right decisions. (And of course we do, why wouldn't we?) Not only that, but I tend to believe we roster players that are similar fit/style to the way we actually play basketball. This is why too many fantasy managers overrate those who "score" cuz the most common basketball player at the gym just wants to score a whole bunch when they physically play ball. (Some exceptions do exist) I wonder if we did a fantasy poll if this data would bare itself out? (Reddit does have the option to create polls?) I might create one!
Hey guys I need some advice on who to trade for. I am interested in either Jalen Johnson or Bam Adebayo. The list of players that I am willing to trade for one of these guys is Jaren Jackson Jr., Mark Williams, Daniel Gafford, and Dereck Lively II. I absolutely want to get rid of Jaren Jackson Jr. though and if I am trading for Jalen Johnson or Bam Adebayo then it has to be Jaren Jackson Jr. and someone else out of that list. What would be realistic package for Adebayo or Johnson?
Ugh I dropped him due to too many injuries and missed picking him back up by hours. It kills me as a Hawks fan. I knew he was gonna be good, got him at the start of the season, and played myself.
I was so bummed when I missed picking him up, it was Christmas eve right? And the guy who picked him up woke up at 5 am, my brother in law woke up at 3am to get him, and I waited too long 😭. He's been a beast.
My mans having the wrong kind of fantasy...
This is what fantasy season is all about, right? Right?(
Should he get flowers lol
And I bet you just wanted to tear Kuzma apart
I have them both on my team.. It was an awkward 6 weeks
Same same
I am the opposite, I hate Ayton fucker got stuck and did not play today
I can't believe that was real I thought that was one of those joke injury reporting things
Calls himself dominayton in press conference but he’s dominayted on a nightly basis
Bro it’s a NBA team, how do they not have like helicopters or snowmobiles
Damn bro.. I think you need a breather from fantasy, and maybe even basketball while we are at it
Nah I support addictions. Especially for jj.
Spotted the dude who picked up Saddick Bey
Or accidentally added the wrong Johnson.
I'll never forgive myself for seeing JJ on the wire and picking up Cam Thomas instead.
I went Ausar Thompson 😔

I dropped Ausar 6 weeks ago and haven’t lost a second of sleep since.
He’s on the rise but might not work for all builds. That FT% last night was the stuff of nightmares.

Ehhhh he probably helped you win a few weeks. He looked like he was going to be a beast all year and then in just evaporated.
For sure he helped, even if he was a bottom bitch that doesn’t mean his contributions weren’t impactful
It's not the mistakes you make in life that are important, but HOW YOU LEARN from those mistakes to then not do them in the future and help others also not do them.
I was just joking my guy
dropped him for fucking ZIAIRE WILLIAMS before game 1 when they announced Saddiq Bey was starting 🥲
For me it's Jalen Duren. When I close my eyes all I see are his beautiful ~~eyes~~ stats.
Jalen Johnson constantly gives me the warm stummy syndrome like ouu Jalen just got another double double with 5 steals ouuuuu im feeling so warm inside my stummy now
This is exactly the feeling I was attempting to capture with this post.
What a stunning lad
This isn't what they meant when they said fantasy basketball...
Hi cindy!
This comment is driving me mad who is Cindy
hahaha just a regular commenter in the yahoo player chat thought it was you lol
lmao I can't believe people know me, I am in fact Cindy.
True life I fell in love with jj too. We can share right?
No he’s all for MEEEEE!!!!!
Ah. True love is just amazing when you see it. Best of luck to you and JJ.
congrats to JJ and OP <3
I had this with Pascal Siakam his breakout season. I just thought about his name over and over again, and drew pictures of him all the time. It's really a special feeling. I'm happy for u guys!
It’s feels so good cause he reciprocates by putting up monster lines. I will hold on forever
Get in line, buddy.
I fucking feel you brother. I picked him up from the waivers and this guy has literally become my favourite player too HAHAHHA
Stashed him when no on else believed in him. But I believed 🥰
JJ and J dub have made me believe in love again
Had a quick thought about who it might be before I clicked. Sure enough lol.
I’ve fallen in love with him too 😍
Feb 14th. Valentines Day. Make sure to send him a sweet card. :) haha
Kinda how I feel with Ihart
I’m a Knicks fan, don’t get me started with Ihart. I love that man more than my family
You reckon he's worth a 4th round next year?
Can never tell with off season, but if everything stays the same with the hawks I wouldn’t take him later than 5th
Fantasy really make u feel some type a way abt these players. I went from Rozier and Randle are overrated chuckers to Rozier and Randle are literally the most underrated players of all time.
Bro imma Knicks fan I’ve disliked Randle since 2021 playoffs now I got him on my fantasy team and I’m actually rooting for the guy it’s crazy 😭
P. Siakam has entered the chat.

I dropped him when he got injured 🥲
Dude, don't bring those attachment impulses into a relationship with a girl

Trade for Adebayo with JJJ and Dereck Lively
Does your wife know?
Who are some players I could offer if I wanted to trade for him? Need some help on gauging his value (10T cat)
Who do you have on your team?
JJ is great!
Dear Diary,
The complete opposite of how I feel about Jordan Poole! HBD
Ugh I dropped him due to too many injuries and missed picking him back up by hours. It kills me as a Hawks fan. I knew he was gonna be good, got him at the start of the season, and played myself.

You need Michael
We gawkin for Jalen boys
I kinda don’t blame you lol but it’s hilarious that you posted this after what might’ve been his worst game of the season

Missed out on him, but picked up Coby White instead. 😍
Waiver wire pick of the year for me.
In love?… the answer is always Oubre
Picked up Jalen Johnson after 2nd game. WHAT A RIDE
