Yesterdays Projections 20/61 = 32%
Lock Time = 6:00
Free Agents that went over 20 yesterday
8% of FAs were 20+ yesterday
Last week Eric had to do something that he did not like doing but he needed the win. So he dropped 3 guys that are worth owning so that he could get more plays in. When the week was finished Eric actually would of won without making those crucial drops. But I give credit to Eric for making those hard decisions.
But when Eric dropped Schroder, Brooke Lopez and Dirk. I instantly went to the waiver order to see were I was at. Damn, I am 9th I found out, no chance at me getting any of those players. So I thought! Eric snagged up Schroder without using his waiver on Monday morning. Eric was surprised know one used waiver on him and I was to. But then i started thinking that everyone was saving there waiver for the next day when two more obvious players were coming off the waiver. I was at 9 and Matt at 7 and we both got the 2 dudes. Lopez was more obvious win then Dirk but both still need to be owned in a good way. So now i wonder why people did not use there waivers. Only thing I can come up with is that these two players do not play today so perhaps that went into the mind set of some owners who need a win this week very badly.
With all this talk of these 2 guys who needed to be owned makes me think of other guys who need to be owned and are on waivers or free agency. Lets take a look at some of them shall we:
Alan Williams - With the way the Suns are moving to a younger lineup. Williams has become more involved and is now Lens backup as Chandler moved to the third string Center. With a very strong outing in his last game. Suns could look to see what Williams is made of down the stretch. Keep eye on him.
Kyle Korver - I am not sold on him being a must own guy. But we all know SGs are hard to find. So Korver could just be a high end floater at best. But he is also a guy to keep a eye on.
Richaun Holmes - With a 20 and 28 in 2 of his last 3 games. Holmes has caught my eye and I have thought about adding him. If he plays over 20 minutes then it appears he can get 20 fantasy points. But not sure how many minutes they will be giving this guy.
Aaron Gordon - I think Gordon should be owned, i see him averaging 17 a game moving forward. With Ibaka gone someone had to step in and take more shots. That guy is Gordon.
Derron Collison - He is on waivers as Matt dropped him for Brooke Lopez. That opens up the door for someone to add a decent PG. I think Collison should be owned. His numbers have been decent as he has gone over 20 in 4 of his last 8 games.
Kyle O'Quinn - With Noah out for the year and Porzingis getting hurt every other week. Hernangomez and O'Quinn could be good 17 or better adds moving forward. Hernangomez is my top option out of these two but he is taken already. I say someone needs to own O'Quinn.

Started off the week with a very nice projection percentage. 32% is not very easy to get. Especially with 61 players in action. I have noticed that I over project teams not usually but most of the time. So when someone beats my projection then that means they had pretty good day. Kapper was only one who beat my projections last night. I projected my team for 140 and they scored 140. So also had one tie.
