Mr. Clarke is super valuable already on 20 minutes a game with just his points and Fg% anchoring alone. Even if he doesnt get unleashed, hes a must roster I play in points leagues and he's pretty much useless and has remained on the wire for several weeks now. Only way he becomes a worthwhile pickup is if Jonas or JJJ get injured Edited January 4, 2020 by Dominator83 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Theres a reason why the NBA changed their official fantasy scoring to points formats, and this year's Rotoworld Draft special they did it for points format.

Jonas has had injury problems, so odds are he'll go down for an extended period and there's a good chance Clarke will play more minutes as the season progresses anyways. If you can't afford to roster him, by all means drop. But he's a decent hold if you're doing well. Edited January 6, 2020 by xlosingmyedgex Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MysticPeak 439 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 The problem is this coach. Jonas goes down, but then what are the chances this Taylor freakin' Jenkins starts Solomon Hill over Clarke to "showcase" what's left in the tank. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm having a tough time holding onto him with 17 to 21 minute of playing time... hes one trade away from being a beast... most of yall still holding? I'm watching that sekou fella from Detroit.. if he does well against laker ... I'll have to keep an eye on Brandon to see of these GM make a move. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Im keeping just cause when he plays hes gold and theres a slight chance later in the season they just unleash him. However, i was looking at the same player you are and he got picked up today which i am mad about. Idk my hope of him getting more minutes is more enticing than right now production.

He’s doing this in 21.3 mpg. On BBM you can sort by FG%+FT% by “punting” all other categories. Edited January 6, 2020 by darkyume 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How long can I hold on to a player that only gives me 10-5 with the occasional block 12.6 and 5.6 with the 5th highest efficiency impact in the league makes him a top 100 player right now, with a chance to explode in the second half. He should be held unless you play in a points league or have better than a top 100ish guy on the wire and don't care about the upside. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Most overrated in history might be the biggest exaggeration in history. From the time I have been on this forum and even more time playing fantasy basketball, there have been many many more overrated and/or overhyped dudes than Clarke. Especially considering Clarke has actually been fantasy relevant in the limited minutes he is getting versus an actual overrated player getting starter minutes but still not really all that useful despite being rostered by many (see Kyle Kuzma) edit: first two years Edited January 6, 2020 by Tekno Team 2000 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
