Going against mid pricers this year as it hasn't worked the past two years. Current team is...

Curry, T. Young (Forbes)
Harden, Doncic (L. Thomas)
Davis (Ayton)
KD, Knox (Osman)
Love, Baguley (JJJ)

Am I insane for starting 4 rookies with 5 of the best scorers in fantasy?

Will be interesting to see how that plays out!  Just missing Giannis!

Do you think I should go with 1 less rookie on court? I'm worried 4 is too many.

I think 4 is okay but only if you have the 'reliable' ones on the court like Doncic, Ayton, and even Young, with another one on too, that's what I'm rolling with.

The only one I'm worried about is Knox. I think Doncic, Young and Baguley are safe to start surely? Maybe I should ditch Love, swing AD to forward and play Ayton.

You could do that too.  Check the fixtures too, not entirely sure, but I think a lot of those studs I've left out of my team for now with week 1/2 scheduling being the reason.

I've got something up my sleeve, but don't want to reveal my tactics until we are safely locked away, think it could make or break my season.  :P

Myles Turner anyone? Good early fixture

There are some good players around that price point.  Turner burned me last year with his first game concussion which led to him losing minutes to Sabonis who puts up good numbers per minute.  High risk, medium reward in my opinion.

Other guys to consider around his price point give or take: Rondae, Portis (no Markinnan to start the season), Favours, Millsap, Mirotic, Randle, Tobias all great options, not all will fire, but all would be considered slightly underpriced.

How did everyone roll into the first round of the season?  My team locked and loaded.

PG: Simmons (39), Young (Rose)
SG: Russell, Doncic (Fultz (3))
C: Embiid (46) (Ayton)
SF: Kawhi, Tobias (Osman)
PF: KD (29), Love (Bagley)

Is Embiid your captain?
Also, Russell? Huge differential...

Mine is:

Curry (39), Young (Forbes)
Harden (C), Doncic (L. Thomas)
Ayton (D. Jones, 20)
Kawhi, Gallinari (Osman)
AD, KD (29) (Knox)

Yeah, Embiid captain. Needed a PG around that price point, had Lavine but didn't like what I saw in pre season. I like Russell, capable of big numbers and looking at him as a stepping stone.

Sloane2JJ

I don't think people will be questioning if AD is worth the 17 mil or not anymore. What a human.

Well that didn't work out the way I planned...correctional trade coming up as Lavine wont' get a price rise till after week 2...

Yep today.

741 for me. Thinking of going Harden > LaVine, Knox > JJJ and L. Thomas > McGruder.
