Jordan Sharp and Sam Hauss sniped me back-to-back, taking two of our top sleepers this season in Nikola Mirotic and Allen Crabbe, respectively. Mirotic, in particular, could be in line for a huge season on a Chicago Bulls squad that -- for lack of a better word -- sucks.
I like Jay Kim's Derrick Favors pick here. Favors was unhealthy all last season, when he ranked 162nd in nine-category leagues, but the three years prior to that, he was firmly an early- to mid-round value. He has great bounce back potential in the late rounds.
My pick: Once Nikola Mirotic and Allen Crabbe were off the board, I settled for Malcolm Brogdon. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem owning the reigning Rookie of the Year, but his ceiling doesn't feel as high as someone like Mirotic's. Either way, we have Brogdon projected to finish 89th this year, so I like him just fine at pick 91.
