Reed Sheppard

Should I get him? · 12-team 9-cat
Worth adding

Fairly sure, though he's not far from the edge of what a 12-team league keeps.

  • No. 102 in our 9-cat rankings, up 21 spots since Oct 24.
  • 23 minutes a game this season, off the bench.
  • 1 game this week (Oct 31–Nov 1), about a 75% chance he plays it.

LeanNext in line if Fred VanVleet sits: Started the one game VanVleet missed (about 30 minutes), but Smart also sat.

Why we project him this way: 23.3 min, 10.5 pts, 2.8 reb, 4.8 ast in 4 games this season; missed 2 of 6.

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

Nobody on his team gained much when he sat.
