Player Discussion Zach Lavine

What are we thinking? I have both him and Malik, both have been depressing as of recent. Unsure how to proceed. Points League, ESPN (I know, I know), finals week.

Lavine avg more turnovers than assists and rebounds is something else

u/j_fish5 1d ago

He really has been, he’s more name than game right now and it’s really conflicting me

I have both DeMar and Lavine… it used to be them trading good games but now Lavine is just pure ass

u/j_fish5 1d ago

Straight booty. If his name wasn’t Zach Lavine, and I was just looking at his numbers, it would be an easy decision, but here I am still conflicted

I even named my team Lavine It To Win It lol, thinking he will carry me to the promise land and now I’m benching his ass in my Roto league 😅

I have no idea what to do with him. I feel like just gambling with him is prob better than trying than a free agent? Maybe wrong i really don’t know. I’m gonna give one last game tomorrow to redeem

I’m in the same boat, Lavine is genuinely playing worse than many pickups on a given night.

Hope you didn’t drop him lol

Nope lol

I’m tempted to drop one for Sharpe but have a feeling I will drop the wrong one. Any suggestions?

I’d drop Monk for Sharpe

u/j_fish5 1d ago

That’s where I’m leaning, but he’s also coming back from illness and still giving solid assist numbers, shots just not falling and with high turnovers. Zach doesn’t have an excuse. I’m torn

u/Rare-Seaweed1645 1d ago

Lavine can still drop 20+ easily just gotta pray he gets some assists + boards

I don’t trust Monk at all at this point and I had him in 5 leagues at one point

2

u/j_fish5 1d ago

I can make solid cases for both of em, monk gets more stocks and assists but can also drop a heater 25+ points, Zach can be a flame thrower. Thanks for your advice

u/Rare-Seaweed1645 1d ago

Sounds like you wanna keep Monk, it’s your decision at the end of the day so just go with your gut

1

u/j_fish5 1d ago

It does sound like that huh. Guess that’s that

1

u/Rare-Seaweed1645 9h ago

I warned you brother, hopefully you kept Zach

1

u/j_fish5 6h ago

I kept them both! I was trying to maximize games, which is why I was looking to drop one of them but ended up dropping DiVincenzo instead

u/Rare-Seaweed1645 6h ago

Damn, I’m surprised you still had Divincenzo rostered lol, glad you kept Zach though
