I currently have 3 starting rooks.
Watching the pre season closely as I feel there will be some good scoring rooks coming off the bench that will get good minutes.
Interesting 1st round with many top picks only getting two games. Edey being C only making it tougher as he is one I will start. No Joker at this early stage.
The best I can come up with thus far is two starting rookies ....
- but that last rookie bench spot is doing my head in ...

Super early days but how is this for a first draft?
If running that type of structure:

- Jokic only plays 2 games in round one but I'd still keep him as that'll be an early POD ...
- Doncic only plays 2 games in round 1 so I'd swap him to say SGA as a C option and aim to bring him in round 2 ...
- LeVert is a bit too injury prone for me ...

SGA is a likely trade for Doncic in week 2
LeVert had him for a short period last season gave me 91 pt score the first week I had him, then turn he into a dud so I had to trade him out, his the type of player will give you a half decent score once every 4 weeks, he also wasn’t a starter for a period last season

Yikes. I currently have 4 rookies on-field. Madness?
4 is too many, I going with 2, an outside chance of going 3
Rookies are too expensive this season, I don’t see a Wembanyama (1) or Miller (2) or AmenThomson (4) or Holmgren who was basically a Rookie as he miss the previous season, in this group, but I might be wrong

Unlikely to be relevant but a few more Aussies now in the NBA that better not take the opportunity for granted.

Valanciunas off to the Wizards could open up opportunities at the center position for the Pelicans. Missi and Matkovic could be of most interest in RDT this season.

I reckon that solves my last rookie spot conundrum ....

- thanks

Can now go:
- Flipowski > MatKovic
- Shannon Jr > Sheppard
