fabrar 2,800 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Haven't really seen any discussion on Klay. What are we expecting this year? Klay is and has been one of the most consistent and stable players in terms of statistical output his entire career. Will Boogie being in town affect him too much? I can still see him putting up something like 20ppg/3.5rpg/2.5apg/0.8spg/0.5bpg with ~3 triples on his typically great %s. In some of the mocks I've done recently, he's being drafted in the 4th and 5th, and even fell to 6th in a couple. This seems pretty low as I think he'll still put up solid 3rd round value. Thoughts?

Stefan 1,154 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) Hmmm IDK... I think I won't be drafting him before 4th round... Had him last season... and I was slightly disappointed... let's see his rankings last year... mmmmmm 9 cat 37. per game value 35. total value Sooo yeah... Boogie won't upset him too much... if at all... but Klay just doesn't offer much (for me)... I'd take Gary, Middleton, Otto, Bledsoe, Covington before him... all finished ahead of Klay (per game value)... EDIT: He ONLY had 3 (three) 30+ points games last season (38, 34, 33)... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Edited September 19, 2018 by Stefan 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not many players can give you close to his 3pt output without destroying your %s, while he is a strong source of points, 3pts, FG%, and FT%. If you draft a guy who can make up for his lack of assists and rebounds he's a solid option, but I agree i wouldn't pick him before the 4th round. ESPN has him at 57, which I would definitely be ok grabbing him at point. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaddyAustralia 329 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 The other thing people always say about the warriors is their injury concern and Kerr resting his star players. However Klay has played in 77+ in his last 5 seasons before 2017-18 season and if it wasn't for his right thumb injury he would have played 77+ in his last 6! He barely gets rested and is very consistent. I had him and KAT last year and was over the moon on how durable and how many games they played in! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Root Admin Patrick Bateman 7,231 Posted September 25, 2018 Root Admin Share Posted September 25, 2018 For those in dynasty leagues.... where he's going to play is a consideration. He's been very consistent about sticking with the Bay. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JLoson0550 56 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 He's a lot more valuable in punt assists Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RedDogNamedClippers 2,369 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Klay is Klay. You buy him for the consistency and percentages. However no higher than 3rd for me. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its difficult to get a lot of 3pt in a punt assists build, and to have such a huge FG% anchor (48.8% on 16.2 fga/g) is an enormous boon to your team. The more I look at him, the more I want him on my team. I still don't think I'd grab him before pick 36, but if I could get him in the 40's I'd be very happy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StickerHappy 112 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I got him as my 4th pick in my punt assist build and Im happy. He's valuable because of the elite percentages, 3s and low TOs. He also has the tendency to go nuclear which is a big plus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In my defense I'm ok with him taking 20 shots... he just has to make 12+ of them. Lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its funny you say you want him to make 12/20 because the 2nd game of the season last year he went 13/20 with 7 threes....haha Maybe history will repeat itself. I never worry about Klay - I have had him every year in fantasy his whole career. He is one of the greatest shooters of all-time and very efficient. I may be a little biased tho since he is my favorite player. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

alclayno 33 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 (edited) My third round pick came down to a decision between drafting him and drafting Khris Middleton. Glad I went with the latter after looking at their first 2-3 games of the season. Edited October 22, 2018 by alclayno Quote Link to post Share on other sites

alclayno 33 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Just now, BrowKnees said: 3 games doesn't mean you made the right decision True, but Khris being a second option > Klay being a third option. Khris probably won't have the occasional 35+ nights that Klay will, but if I had to guess, I'd guess that he'd have a more fantasy friendly line overall by season's end.

Khris's advantage over Klay is that he gets more peripheral stats like steals, rebounds Klay's advantage over khris is his history of elite %'s and threes, although unfortunately he is shooting like trash to start the year. They both are going to score around 20 by season end. Don't forget that Klay plays a good amount of minutes without durant or curry on the court at times, he's usually the first star off the court and the first one back on in the 2nd quarter.

Mikhov 574 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Cant see why anyone would take him over Kmidd outside of name value Only thing Klay will do RoS is fix his fg% as the rest of his stats are his per usual - while Kmidd will get you breakfast, lunch and dinner 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
