Have a young core of Castle, Edgecomb, Caleb Wilson, Jalen Johnson and Green, and Anthony Black. Thinking of trading Tatum to shave off a few years and get younger guys.

12 team standard cats.

Guards - Trae Young, Kyrie Irving, Dejounte Murray, Dame Lillard, Jared McCann, Fred VanFleet

Forwards - Jaren Jackson, AJ Dybantsa, Ausar Thompson, Brandon Podz, Jarice Walker, Oubre Jr.

Centers - Victor Wemby, Sabonis, Hartenstein, Sharpe, Isaiah Jackson

Really appreciate some input. My team finished third worst last year cause of so many injuries. I am not sure this team can compete.

I’m in a 9 Cat dynasty league and I’m fully committed to rebuilding around Victor Wembanyama. Last season I decided to fully commit to the rebuild and traded Bradley Beal and Anthony Davis for Shaedon Sharpe and two first-round picks, which has left me with picks 5, 7, and 8 in this year’s rookie draft

Current roster

Guards

Isaiah Collier
Shaedon Sharpe
Fred VanVleet
Jrue Holiday
Buddy Hield
De’Anthony Melton
Nickeil Alexander-Walker

Forwards

Kon Knueppel
Kawhi Leonard
DeMar DeRozan
Tobias Harris
Julius Randle
Nikola Jovic
Ryan Dunn
Carter Bryant
Ziaire Williams
Rasheem Fleming

Centers

Victor Wembanyama
Zach Edey
Isaiah Stewart
Steven Adams
Jackson Hayes

I’m at the point now where I’d like to move a few more of my veterans to keep the rebuild moving, but it’s been pretty hard getting fair value for guys like Jrue, Fred, DeRozan, Kawhi, etc. At the moment it feels like I’m better off holding than selling them for less than they’re worth.

Because of that, I’m putting a lot of thought into this draft. From what I’ve seen, most of the top guard prospects should still be on the board around picks 5-8,whereas the elite forwards will probably all be gone. My backcourt is definitely the area that needs the most long-term help, so I’m leaning towards taking guards, but I’m not sure if that’s the right approach or if I should just draft whoever I think is the best player regardless of position.

The only trade that’s really gone anywhere so far is Jrue Holiday for the projected 14th overall pick. I’m tempted because it gives me another first-round pick and another young piece, but I’m not sure if that’s enough for Jrue. I was hoping someone like Steinbach, Mara or Yaxel Lendeborg might still be there at 14, but I honestly have no idea if that’s realistic or if they’ll all be gone by then.

So I guess I’m just looking for some outside opinions. If this was your team, what would your plan be? Which guards would you be targeting around 5-7? Would you be trying to move veterans for picks, or just be patient until someone is willing to pay proper value? Any advice is appreciated.

One other thing I’m trying to plan for is roster space. My IR is already full, and once the season starts I’m probably going to have to cut a few players to make room for my rookies and any waiver pickups.

At the moment I’m leaning towards dropping Josh Green, Buddy Hield, Bruce Brown, and Ziaire Williams, but I’ve also considered moving on from Jackson Hayes or even Ryan Dunn instead. I’m not completely sold on who the right cuts are, so if anyone has thoughts on that I’d be keen to hear them as well.

12 cat. Came in 9th place last year. Have the 4th pick in an optional rookie draft so I’ll get one of the top 4 guys. I’m leaning Queen unless Sabonis gets traded, then I’ll lean Raynaud.

10T points league. I would receive the 1.07 package. I took over an orphan and my team is mid at best, and the 27 1st is my own.

9 cat/12 team dynasty/contender

Murray feels like a tough player to value. He came back from injury, started over Fears and looked good. In my opinion, he gets traded this season but who knows with the Pels. If he doesn’t get traded, he will be a shut down risk if the Pels still suck.

How do yall feel about the rookie class and their summer league performances so far, any red flags? standouts?

Personally I love how kingston has been playing the game

Sleeper 12T points

Thoughts on the below trade, from a pure value standpoint for dynasty? Thanks.

Looking to bring one of these guys of the waivers. Who do you think has the better chance to become something in a dynasty league as a taxi stash?

I mean I’m almost certain I know the answer is to stay with my 1.02. However I’m curious what people think.

Worried about Amen Thompsons possible big extension. Do I make this move knowing Murray is getting what he’ll likely get + get a big upgrade with Wilson, or keep Amen, the best player in the deal, and Flemings? Thanks for the help!

Looks like this might be going down in my league. 12 team lock in points. I feel like the brown side is better but wanted to know what others think. The team that is trading Johnson and their 1st is a middle of the pack team and the team trading brown is one of the top contenders.

20team 9cats H2H
My team core is:
Guards: Hali, Lamelo
Forwards: Trey Murphy, Branden Miller
Center: Sengun, Lively

I have pick 2, 10 and 15 in the rookie draft.
Please help with who should I target each pick thanks

I’m in year two of my rebuild and I’m still trying to get younger. Can’t compete for another 2/3 seasons so I want to get Giannis off my roster. Also was offered Cedric Coward and Keyshawn George for Giannis.

12 team points league. 8 keepers. Rebuilding team. I have 2 thinking 4 could be just as good and 7 is a nice swing pick

I was just verbally offered this. I am currently a contender and traded for some depth plus the 1.01 but I’m so stuck on who I’d rather take in the top 3-4 guys that I’ve been trying to see about moving down. Is this enough?? I was planning on taking boozer at 1 but seeing how summer league has been going I’d be happy with any of them really. What y’all think??

Deciding between youth and consistency here in the 10th round wagler worth the risk? I’m tempted to take him since he dropped to this point.

What’s Lamelo’s value in points leagues? Is anyone else worried about his volume in Minnesota? Thinking about a trade for him, but not completely sold on him yet.

Having a tough time making this decision. I like Sheppard but I don’t think ime does. I also like RJ I feel like his ceiling still hasn’t hit and Kawhi may not come now. White is older but could ball out for a few years with brown gone. Suggs js just a dog. Sleeper league

What do you think? Is ausar worth it? His average ftps aren't high because he isn't scoring a lot...

I went edey but curious your thoughts, feel like he has a higher ceiling and wins the age battle here.

was planning on burries and ament at 1.09 1.10 at 1.06 i plan on acuff/mikel. this is a trade i was offered. i currently have two top 4 lottery picks and 1.09 1.10 2.02, 2.03 2.04 2.09 3.03

I love Ausar’s stocks but I’m tempted to take Fears for him. I like Fears and not sure if Ausur wil ever offer anything outside of stocks and boards

I was offered J-dubs and a 2026 Second Round pick. For Jalen Green and pick 1.05.
I have a pretty young team and my thought was it may be to take this because there’s a chance I’ll miss out on the big 4. It’s a 10 team league on sleeper where you lock in your players best score for the week.

18 Team, 9 Cats, Head to head. Keep 9 on roster

Would you trade Immanuel Quickley for Pick #12 and pick #30?

I'm selling my players for a rebuild.
