Mini-Analysis: Derrick Rose traded to the Knicks
![]() |
Derrick Rose was reportedly traded to the Knicks on Wednesday. |
The trade reportedly happened on Wednesday.
But Rose has not been playing as well since his knee issues a couple of seasons ago. However, the Knicks have been looking for someone to help Carmelo Anthony operate the team's offense, and Rose can definitely do that if he stays healthy.
Chris Broussard of ESPN spoke to a source "close to Rose," who said the point guard is excited about playing for the Knicks. "His 1st choice was New York (if traded)," the source told Broussard. "He wants the spotlight."
Rose posted a 13.5 player-efficiency rating in 66 games with the Bulls in 2015-16.

Finding the best 'draft wish' for the Sixers; draft Simmons, but trade Okafor?
![]() |
Should the Sixers trade Jahlil Okafor? |
The first overall pick, which will be made by the Philadelphia 76ers is an interesting one because of what Towers has written as what he feels the Sixers should do.
Below is his summary of the Sixers. Read their Draft night wish and let us know if you find that a bit interesting. Obviously Jahlil Okafor trade rumors have been heating up, however.
Philadelphia 76ers
Draft night wish: Draft Ben Simmons; trade Nerlens Noel OR Jahlil Okafor for a point guard
The 76ers are in a super interesting spot. After years of doing pretty much everything they could to be among the worst teams in the league, they are seemingly done accumulating assets and ready to move into the actual team-building phase of things. That means they have to start consolidating their assets, especially in the frontcourt, where they could have as many as five recent lottery picks heading into next season, including overseas import Dario Saric and Joel Embiid, the "limping, Dream-Shaking, purely theoretical embodiment of The Process. They could go into the season with all five on the roster, using Simmons at times as a small forward and working Embiid in slowly, limiting his minutes as he works his way back from multiple foot injuries.
And there's also growing evidence that Dario Saric may not come over to the 76ers this season; combined with a likely minutes limit for Embiid, and the frontcourt logjam may not be as bad as it seems right now. Still, Noel and Okafor didn't work together all that well, and at some point you have to start building the rest of the roster. If reports are to be believed, Bryan Colangelo's interest in Jeff Teague suggests that he is aware of this fact. If the 76ers move one of their prized young bigs for a real point guard, this roster starts to make a lot more sense; as we saw with Ish Smith last season, a competent ballhandler opens up a lot of opportunities here.

DFS NBA Picks: March 21, 2016
Tyler Ennis - Milwaukee Bucks: Instead of picking a high-salary point guard like Stephen Curry, who can be one of the most, and if not that then the most expensive player on DFS, pick Tyler Ennis of the Milwaukee Bucks.

FanDuel Analysis: Spurs' Leonard is one of three good High-Salary SFs for Monday
![]() |
Kawhi Leonard |
Kawhi Leonard-San Antonio Spurs (8,600): Another SF option on the rise is Kawhi Leonard of the Spurs who has been outstanding after taking off a few games after the All Star break due to a calf injury. Kawhi has at least 45 fantasy points in four of his last five games and has averaged 27.6 points, 8.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.8 steals over those five games. He had 24 points, six boards, five assists and three steals in his previous meeting this season with the Pacers and Paul George, and It think he’s lined up for another solid multi-faceted line tonight. ∗∗∗∗
Chandler Parsons-Dallas Mavericks (6,900): Parsons played 39 minutes in the Mavs’ OT loss last night posting an underwhelming 11 points to go with 11 boards and five assists for 29.7 fantasy points. He has at least that many in four of his last five games, but has shown plenty of upside with at least 39 fantasy points in five of his last ten. He will look to bounce back tonight against the Clippers who he has yet to face this year. ∗∗

Good High-Salary PGs for Friday
![]() |
D'Angelo Russell |
![]() |
Isaiah Thomas |
Isaiah Thomas: Thomas looked fully healthy as the Celtics took down Damian Lillard and the Blazers on Wednesday behind 30 points from IT4. Thomas only had two assists in that contest, so he only ended up with 37.8 fantasy points, but normally he’s good for 6+ assists per night. Tonight, he’ll take on the Knicks struggling backcourt defense who he has averaged 25 points, 7.3 assets, and 5.3 rebounds against in his three games against so far this season. Thomas has taken his game to another level this year, and Boston is hunting the Raptors for the#2 seed as a result. (FanSided)
