Doesn't the term "sell high" mean trading a player who has outperformed his draft slot because you ultimately believe he will regress to the mean?

As for me, I bought low on Danny Green and he has started to pick up his play as of late. The window for that might be closing.

Buy low - D'Angelo Russell, DeMarre Carroll

Sell high - Andre Drummond, Andrew Wiggins, Dirk Nowitzki

I'm actually trying to sell high on Fournier right now. Scott Skiles is a fantasy killer.

I put a trade out there for Fournier for Mirotic. Thoughts?

I'm trying to dump T.J. McConnall, Jordan Clarkson and Fournier while they have some value.

I wouldn't do that if I were you (Fournier for Mirotic)

Scott Skiles likes Fournier, it's Oladipo and Payton who are in trouble. Those two can't shoot and thus aren't able to play together, whereas Fournier's minutes will be perfectly fine (the most recent game was a blowout, other than that EF has consistently been 35-40+ mpg).. meanwhile, Mirotic will get inconsistent minutes all season because of his poor defense, and he's been an inconsistent, streaky NBA player in general.

I would cancel that one before it gets accepted

Yeah I actually pulled that one back. After thinking about it.

I would also add Mason Plumlee in the sell high list. He is having a hot streak right now, I don't see him keeping it up.

Hahaha! Yeah sometimes Dan should stick to betting.

Buy into Houston players this week, as they have the most valuable schedule in the league. They play the league maximum 4 games, 3 of them coming on days with 5 or less games. Complete fantasy basketball schedule here:http://www.direfantasy.com/basketball-3/waiverwire-advice-pickups-cheatsheet/
