Ben Simmons

Should I get him? · 12-team 9-cat
Skip for now

Small sample: he has very few NBA games, so this stays at "Worth watching" until he plays more.

  • Outside our top 200 for 9-cat leagues (No. 208).
  • On the injury report: out tonight (right achilles tendon repair / surgery).
  • Projected for 23 minutes a game; started both preseason games.
  • 1 game this week (Oct 31–Nov 1), about a 0% chance he plays it.

When teammates sit

His minutes and fantasy points in real games without a teammate.

No teammate's absence has changed his minutes much yet (we need 5 or more games without them to say).

If he sits, who gains

Not enough games without him on this team to say yet.
