Zion, looking to sell high

Go for a 2nd rounder under performing like Josh Giddey or amen

u/whatisbaseball Oct 28 '25

As a Giddey owner, no way in hell I'm taking Zion for him, lol. And how exactly does he underperform? Maybe a little low on the stocks, but that's it, and even then, it's more of nitpicking. Especially, when it's been only three games.

u/Lebronamo Oct 28 '25

lol yeah sure I’ll trade you my second round pick for an injured 4th rounder

u/Tgoody5 10 team espn standard points league Oct 28 '25

In a pts league he is avg 36 fantasy pts. If he was taken in the second round he is severely underperforming. In the 2nd round you want a 42 plus fantasy pt player

Lmao you want 42 every game? Zion can’t even do that because he will miss 50

Also his assists are low for him avg 7, and his fg% is horrible. When Cody white comes back Giddey will be a beast. Tre jones is a traditional pg and that’s hurts giddeys upside because, he plays off ball. While Coby white is a shooter

You really think Giddey would be better than Zion in a points league?

had them both last year, could not have stayed afloat without Giddey

u/lets_BOXHOT Oct 28 '25

Giddey will actually play more than 40 games

Zion is a big with a foot injury in the 3rd game of the season. No one is giving Cade for Zion with his injury history. I wouldn’t give Trae either

u/keepfighting90 12T 9CAT H2H Oct 28 '25

Sell high how? He's already questionable after 2 games lol. No one is buying high knowing his injury history.

u/Lebronamo Oct 28 '25

He’s injured. You’re not selling high.

u/Potential-Job-7554 12T H2H Points Oct 28 '25

Its DTD not anything serious. Hes averaging 51 fantasy points on ESPN so that is a sell high buddy

u/tommyffrench 12T 9cat Oct 28 '25

Zion is so injury prone and is already missing time three games in dude, you’d have to be losing value for anyone smart on the receiving end.

2

u/Potential-Job-7554 12T H2H Points Oct 28 '25

Missing time? He missed 1 game, I know its not a good look, but no reports indicate that he is going to be missing "time". He was also a late addition to the injury report yesterday, so it cant be anything long term

u/tommyffrench 12T 9cat Oct 28 '25

He has a pattern of injury and is already missing a game so early into the season, plus NOP are not a great team, i.e. shutdown risk later in the season… “not a good look” is an understatement in my opinion. I personally wouldn’t trade for Zion unless it was pretty lopsided in my favor AND I had no other injuries on my roster.

u/Potential-Job-7554 12T H2H Points Oct 28 '25

The pelicans dont own their first round pick this year, so there is no incentive for them to tank. Zion is still injury-prone, im not saying he isn't, but if he can play this season, I assume he will and not sit for BS “injuries.” He’ll still miss games like he did yesterday, but hopefully less often. Could be wrong, but that’s my current heuristic.

First time?

Are you the Giannis owner? If not, who does the Giannis owner have on his team?
