Fantasy basketball fast break: Insight on Kawhi Leonard, Anthony Black and more
We're rapidly approaching the halfway point of the NBA season, and teams and players have already navigated their share of ups and downs.
The biggest headline so far this week revolves around Nikola Jokic, the No. 1 player in fantasy leagues. Jokic suffered a knee injury Monday night just before halftime in Denver's loss to Miami and should miss at least four weeks.
Jokic has averaged 29.6 points, 12.2 rebounds and 11.0 assists per game, and also leads the league in triple-doubles (16), rebounds (389) and assists (351).
Dating back to his first MVP season, Denver is 264-132 with Jokic in the lineup and just 13-23 without him. This season, the Nuggets have posted a plus-12.6 net efficiency with Jokic on the floor compared with minus-4.0 when he sits, which underscores just how irreplaceable he is. However, one player's fantasy outlook changes dramatically with this news, and we'll discuss that shortly.

I was born and raised in Southern California but went to school on the east coast and worked in NYC for four years. Yet, I will never, ever get used to the sports schedule out here — I’m currently in Brooklyn with my in-laws. First football game at 1 p.m. on Sunday? Did I just sleep in all morning? Basketball games starting at 10 p.m. and ending past midnight?! Lord have mercy! Ball is life, though, so I trudge through. Easy for me to say since I don’t have to wake up at 7 a.m. to go to work. I salute all you east coasters. And I hope everyone has a happy New Year!

Fantasy Basketball Trade Targets: Buy Low on De’Aaron Fox & Deandre Ayton
While the NBA Trade Deadline is still over a month away, there is plenty of wheeling and dealing to do right now in fantasy basketball. Determining which players might be the best targets in trade discussions can sometimes be difficult. Here are some players to consider buying low on, selling high on or who are worth holding onto in fantasy at this time.
It has been a quiet scoring stretch for Fox, who has provided 14 or fewer points in four of his last six games. During that six-game span, he has only shot 43.0% from the field and 63.2% from the charity stripe. The good news is, the veteran guard still averaged 4.0 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.0 steals over the six games.
