Wire to Wire aims to be your waiver wire resource for all of your fantasy basketball needs. It will dive into playing time trends, injury replacements, and even an occasional category specialist—all of which can be found on a typical waiver wire within your fantasy league at any given time
With the fantasy playoffs soon approaching, it’s getting to the point where games-remaining is a big determinant in whom you’ll be adding-dropping over the next week. Leagues that lock rosters after a certain point will definitely want to pay attention to this. Those that allow streaming – while I don’t condone – will want to pay close attention to this as well. With that said, here are the players that should be on your current radars, given league settings.

While owners are frantically looking for the players who will go from unknown to fantasy playoff superstars in the matter of weeks (Walter Herrmann circa 2007), we have all been confronted with a bevy of superstar injuries. While the Gerald Wallace concussion hurts, no injury will likely impact the final weeks more than Houston’s Yao Ming calling it a season. The rotations have ironed themselves out, and we now know who needs to be added where. Hopefully your opponents have been asleep at the wheel as we have a ton of fantasy assets out there on the wire as we speak.

Beyond the Arc: Week 19
Posted by Brandon Haraway Categories: Disses, Editorial, H2H, Props, Roto, Site Features, Trades, Waiver Pick Ups,
We’re almost at the finish line and it’s time to start readying the troops for the final countdown.
How’s that for some drama? It’s time for any last minute trades, so assess your rosters, make that deal and keep your eyes peeled to the waiver wire. This is where championships are won, especially in H2H, where a good chunk of the best players in the league will sit out the fantasy finals. The good news is that both conferences are set up for some tight races with a lot of jostling around with seeding, so hopefully this year more than ever we see very few guys sitting out their last few team games. We can only hope so.
The Fig Cap: Who knew?

Dropping Dimes Staff Rankings: Week 18
Posted by Scott Sargent Categories: H2H, Props, Roto, Site Features,
Apologies for the timing of these rankings, but better late than never! Every team has either four or three games, so fantasy owners should have some nice, high-scoring teams this week.
Four games: ATL, BOS, CHI, CLE, DAL, DEN, IND, LAC, LAL, MIL, MIA, MIN, NOR, POR, SAC, SAS, SEA, TOR, WAS, UTA
Three games: CHA, DET, GST, HOU, MEM, NYK, NJN, ORL, PHO, PHI
The Fig Cap: Yep, you two are definitely must-starts this week…

It is admittedly getting tough to find some weekly additions from the waiver wire at this time of year. While we have the trade deadline looming, most of the transactions from here out will be based on either injuries or scheduling. Four-game weeks are going to become crucial as we head into the playoffs. Those that are behind on games in roto leagues will need to start making well-thought moves to get the game totals as close to 72 to as possible before it is all said and done. With that said, here are this week’s recommendations.

With the All-Star break right around the corner, a few teams within the Association cannot wait for it to get here thanks to several big injuries throughout the league. In fact, we’ve already had an All-Star game replacement as Kevin Garnett’s abdominal injury has opened the door for Detroit’s Rasheed Wallace to take part in the festivities. While he hopes the Western Conference puts Dirk Nowitzki opposite him on gameday, fantasy owners will be left to fill any void which they may have over the next few days. Below, you’ll see plenty of options for your backcourt, with a surprise mention for a second-half frontcourt presence. Could a certain big man ride off into the Sun-set with one last ring? No pun intended, of course…
