Fantasy Wrap: Tuesday, February 24

The Headlines

Tyrese Maxey just reminded everyone why he's a league-winner. The 76ers guard went absolutely nuclear against Indiana, torching the Pacers in a 135-114 blowout that looked less like a basketball game and more like a practice session. Philly's offensive scheme is running through Maxey right now, and he's cashing in every single night. If you don't own him, you're playing catch-up.

The other story: Edgecombe's breakout performance alongside Maxey shows the 76ers have two viable scoring threats that can both explode on any given night. This is important for managers juggling both guards.

Top Performers

Tyrese Maxey (PHI) - Went off on the Pacers with a league-leading fantasy night. The exact point totals weren't provided, but "nuclear" and "feast" language tells you he was a league-winner.
Edgecombe (PHI) - Also feasted in the blowout, proving he belongs in the same conversation as Maxey on high-volume nights.
Potter (PHI) - The 23-point breakout is exactly what fantasy managers dream about. A bench player stepping up in a blowout is one thing. But the recap specifically highlighted this matters more than the win itself. Translation: he's playing meaningful minutes and hitting shots. This is a league-wide add candidate.
Pacers role players - Indiana got torched, which means their guys are in sell-low territory. Nobody had a standout night in a 21-point loss.

The Disappointments

The entire Pacers roster. Getting blown out at home by 21 is a fantasy wasteland. Even if a few guys put up points, volume disappears in blowouts and your bench guys get garbage time minutes that don't count for anything. Tyrese Haliburton and whoever else Indiana was running probably disappointed their owners, though specifics weren't provided in the recap.

Waiver Priority

Potter (PHI) - Rank this as urgent. A 23-point breakout with specific mention that it "matters more than the blowout" signals real opportunity here. Not a one-game wonder narrative. The coaching staff is trusting him with minutes.
Any healthy Sixers bench contributor - Philly's blowout win means their depth is getting exposed as legit. Check the box score for who got run alongside Maxey and Edgecombe.
Pacers' lead guard off the bench - Indiana got destroyed, so their backup point guard or scorer could be next in line if their starter needs rest or has lingering issues.

Sell High, Buy Low

Sell High:

Maxey - Not that you should trade him, but if a league mate is panicking about his own team, now's the time to fleece them. He's hitting another gear. Don't accept lowball offers.
Potter - If you grabbed him on waivers, ride the wave for 2-3 games before selling. One 23-point game can spike his value with nervous managers.

Buy Low:

Pacers starters - They got murdered, but it's one game. If anyone is panic-selling Haliburton or their other lead scorers, pounce. Volume players don't stay quiet forever.

The Bottom Line

Maxey and Potter are the names you need to remember from last night. One's a keeper confirmation, the other's your waiver wire gold. Philly's looking scary offensively, and the Pacers got humbled at home. Don't overreact to one blowout loss in Indy's case, but do respect that Philly's depth is real.
