Fantasy Basketball Weekly Projections: 5 Waiver Wire Adds to Consider for Week 3
Five players with four games scheduled this week could provide some helpful fantasy basketball production.
Let's continue looking into some fantasy basketball players by discussing weekly projections and five possible waiver wire adds!
We already looked at some adds and drops for Monday. Check back throughout the week for even more fantasy basketball coverage!
Fantasy basketball weekly projections are available on FantasySP! Daily projections are also available all season!
P.J. Washington - Dallas Mavericks
Washington has four games scheduled for the coming week. He's rostered in 65.3% of fantasy leagues at the moment.
He has started all six games for Dallas so far, logging between 26-40 minutes of action. Washington has scored at least 12 points in all but one contest - he only tallied three his last time out, but he made up for that with a 10-rebound effort. He has 49 rebounds, seven assists, six blocks and two steals as well this season.

I like his role, and he's produced a healthy amount of points in all but one contest so far. Washington can add in a bunch of rebounds to be a pretty solid fantasy asset as well.
He's a good deep-league option, while also being worth some standard league streams. In a week where he's projected to do pretty well, I'd take a long look at Washington and maybe add him.
Jeremiah Fears - New Orleans Pelicans
Fears was part of the add story today, so he is trending up for a few reasons. He's got four games lined up this week and is now owned in 74.7% of leagues.
He's started all six games for New Orleans and is averaging 25.3 minutes a contest. Fears is also averaging 13 points, 4.5 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 1 steal and 0.7 blocks as well. He's played between 20-30 minutes.
He has scored at a pretty good clip all season, and is over 20 points in two straight. It's the consistent rebounds and assists tacked on that make Fears a really good fantasy asset.
He needs to be added in all deeper leagues today, and he's also worth a bunch of standard league pickups. Make the move before it's too late!
Isaiah Collier - Utah Jazz
Collier is owned in just 12.29% of leagues, so almost all of you reading could add him. He has four games scheduled for this week.
He's coming off the bench for Utah, averaging 18.5 minutes over the first six games. Collier is averaging 7.5 points, 5.7 assists, 4 rebounds and 0.5 steals per game.
He's not a high-level fantasy asset, but he's producing enough when on the court to be worth some deep-league utilization. If his role ever expands, he could be worth trying in some standard leagues too.
So Collier is one to add in some deeper leagues today, or for the week, especially if you need guard help. Utilize him until his numbers fall off consistently.
Naji Marshall - Dallas Mavericks
Marshall has four games coming this week. He's rostered in 31.33% of leagues right now.
He has missed three games in a row due to an illness, but he's expected back soon. Marshall has started one of the three games he's appeared in so far, logging between 20-33 minutes.
Marshall has scored in double figures in every game so far, and has posted 41 points overall. He has 17 assists, 10 rebounds and five steals as well, so he's filling the stat sheet pretty well.
Marshall is available in a few more leagues than usual following his absence. I like him as a deep-league pickup this week, although his status needs to be monitored. If he produces after returning, he could also be worth some standard league streams, so keep him in mind.
Devin Vassell - San Antonio Spurs
Vassell is sitting at 73.98% rostered right now. He has four games coming this week.
He's started all six games for San Antonio so far - he's played between 24-37 minutes, but been over 30 minutes in all but one game. Vassell has scored in double figures in all but two contests, totaling 72 points so far.
Vassell has 25 rebounds, 21 assists, 11 steals and one block as well, so he's not just scoring. As a secondary scoring option on the team, his production will rise and fall a bit, which is why he's available in so many leagues.
He is always a decent standard league streaming option, while being a good deep-league asset. In a week where he's projected to fare well, Vassell is definitely worth some adds today.
