Week 19 Shockers: Unbelievable Fantasy Basketball Climbs and Crashes You Can’t Miss!

Nikola Vučević — FC, Boston Celtics: 92nd overall (⬇️ 19)

Vuč’s trade to Boston was a good real-life basketball move — for fantasy? I’m not convinced. Since the deadline deal, Vučević’s numbers have cratered.

In Chicago, he was averaging 16.9 PPG and 9.0 RPG in 32+ minutes as the starting center. In Boston through eight games? Just 12 points with 8 boards in 23.7 minutes — and he’s coming off the bench for the first time since his rookie season.

Boston doesn’t need him to be the Vuč of old — they’ve got plenty of high-usage assets to funnel their offensive production through. Plus, Jayson Tatum is coming back soon. The Celtics are 8-2 since the trade, so the team has to be pleased with the way Vuč is adjusting to playing with the second unit. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, he can be dropped since his timeshare with Neemias Queta is stonewalling what’s left of his upside.
