Trade deadline panic or just business as usual? Josh Lloyd warns fantasy basketball managers not to overhype rumored blockbusters, noting most NBA trade deadline deals—like the ongoing Jonathan Kuminga saga—lead to more fantasy value losses than breakouts. He unpacks why stashing players such as Jalen Smith and Day’Ron Sharpe rarely pays off, digs into center trends with names like Maxime Raynaud and Ryan Kalkbrenner, and explains why Cam Thomas and Zion Williamson may not be the upside plays owners hope for.From shutdown risks for stars like Lauri Markkanen and Jusuf Nurkić to navigating the mental game of league frustrations, Josh Lloyd tackles it all. Key fantasy strategies include leveraging late-season waiver wire moves, the importance of big late-round hits over early-pick “nails,” and the nuanced art of punting categories. Curious about trade tactics, keeper decisions, or why “hard vs. soft” punts don’t matter? This Q&A session brings the sharpest insights to your fantasy basketball prep. Everydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
