I had planned out a long post on holds and streams for the readers tonight, but you’re going to get it over two days. Long story short, our Fantasy Master Lothario Grey Albright, Donkey Teeth, and Billy were in Vegas tonight and I met up with them.

That’s all for now guys. I’ll be back tomorrow giving some details on my thought process behind this list. As always, feel free to ask any questions, leave any comments, or give any suggestions below. We’ll be doing the Three Point Challenge for Tuesday’s games so if you want to make a pick in this post, you can, or in tomorrow’s. Reminder that you can’t pick anyone in the Top 10 in points from last season. Thanks for reading, take care!
