Ive been doing big money leagues in basketball football and baseball since 2010. Sit down rookie. Also hes the one bringing up saying i do useless post every day which i quickly corrected i dont post here every day cause i have a life. So your point is what? Where did I say he posts too often? Oh wait you are just one of those people got it considering i never mentioned anything about him posting here too often nor him having no life. Man, you really have a lot of time on your hands to be responding with essays like this consistently through the day. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Or maybe I can type 90 words a minute on a bad day? Lol. Guess you didnt have to do many essays or research in college...if you even went to one. But people sure do have a lot of time to discuss my posts instead of Richaun Holmes, so at least I am not alone here.

IF Holmes is healthy the Kings have an incentive to play him (and the rest of the squad) to see what they have going into next year. Much easier to play through a partial shoulder tear (see Paul George) than to play following a massive lower body injury (again, see Paul George). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The counter to that is Holmes hardly "shoots" -- most of his shot attempts are dunks. The fact that it's his shooting shoulder matters less than it would for a guard/wing. Still it's a big "if" regarding him coming back healthy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Still requires you to continually lift your arm above your head, if you've had a torn labrum before you'd know it's quite painful. Repetitively dunking and grabbing the ring and putting the full force of his body weight through that shoulder is probably worse than shooting to be honest. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed that any sort of tear is definitely going to affect a player. Not exactly sure what you’re arguing here. Nurkic will not be fantasy relevant this year in 12T and under.

With that being said, I'm out on Walton. He completely lost control of the Lakers last year. This years version of the Kings are worse than last years version under Dave Joeger (even with an arguably more talented and experienced roster). I just haven't seen anything from him that indicates he can coach a team to an above .500 record unless you gift him with 3 of the top 10 players in the league. The way they've managed and released information on Bagley's injury makes me iffy on what is really going on with Holmes. If this is a real labrum tear, Holmes never had a chance to come back within 2-3 weeks. From a medical standpoint, that doesn't make any sense. At minimum, he's looking at 2 months from when the tear occurred for it to heal and Holmes regain strength again. The pain and discomfort will remain, but if he properly rests and receives appropriate treatment, he should end up at a point where its good enough to play and it's up him to figure out how much he's comfortable dealing with once the labrum reattaches itself. Bottom line, this team is so bad, it's going to be a risk for owners holding him. For those in deep leagues (16-20), we really don't have a choice as they're are no options on the waiver pool that come close to his production. Just cross out fingers and hope he comes back. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's the more sure thing. We have no idea when Nurk is coming back to be fantasy relevant, and considering the nature of their injuries, Holmes will be on lesser restrictions. He isn't practicing yet so it's safe to rule out a Feb post-ASB return, and he could return in a very limited fashion in the middle of fantasy playoffs. Not really worth a hold and I'd take the gamble on Holmes coming back instead. I was already holding both and Curry as someone who's locked for playoffs but the Holmes news made me have to drop Nurk, just in case I had to hold Holmes in IL during the fantasy playoffs. Not to mention Curry's return date hasn't been exactly set in stone so I wouldn't want that many uncertainties on the team heading into the playoffs and missing out on hot pickups.

kilslo 178 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) I read the Kings have not ruled out the possibility of surgery for Holmes but the team is hoping he responds well to the PRP injection Jesus Kyrie responded well to his so hopefully Holmes does as well Edited February 13, 2020 by kilslo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
