Fantasy basketball draft prep season is in full effect, with the NBA season just two weeks away. At this point in the preseason, you're likely making a list of players to target or fade when it's your turn to draft. To help you avoid potential missteps, this week I'll break down some of the players I'm fading by position — starting with none other than guards.
Boston, MA - May 14: Philadelphia 76ers SG James Harden gives a look of disbelief following a foul call. The Boston Celtics defeated the 76ers, 112-88, in Game 7 of the 2023 Eastern Conference Semifinals. , with the NBA season just two weeks away. At this point in the preseason, you're likely making a list of players to target or fade when it's your turn to draft.
The problem here is not that he wants out of Philly; it's that fantasy managers can't trust a disgruntled James Harden. Harden's done this before — He forced his way out of two franchises, the Houston Rockets and Brooklyn Nets — and now he's ready to complete the trifecta, demanding to be traded from the Sixers to the Clippers.
If he does fish his wish and lands on the Clippers, I'd expect his usage to take a hit because he'd be playing with Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and Russell Westbrook. That's a lot of star power to contend with, and for fantasy, Harden's best option is to play out his contract in Philly — even though it doesn't look like that will happen.The Grizzlies and fantasy managers will be without Morant for the first 25 games of the season, as he serves out his suspension from.
And because he's suspended, he's not eligible to be placed in the IL or IL+ spots, so he'll take up valuable roster space until Dec. 21 . I can't get behind Morant's ADP at 75; that's a seventh-round grade for a guy with a lot of question marks heading into the season. If you're playing in a nine-category league, his underwhelming FT percentage and high turnover rate tank his value.
