As the 2024-25 NBA season approaches its climax, fantasy league strategies are being put to the test. With some teams resting key players and others vying for improved lottery odds, managers face unique challenges in roster management. The up-and-down performances of players like Tristan Vukcevic emphasize the importance of reliable waiver wire options.

Players like Kelly Olynyk are emerging as solid picks, showing promise with a recent 14-point, 11-rebound game. Similarly, Aaron Nesmith has bounced back from injury to contribute effectively for the Indiana Pacers, while Anthony Black's performances could elevate if Cole Anthony stays sidelined.
