Sarah Kowalski

Background

Polish-American and Milwaukee born-and-raised, Sarah got into fantasy basketball in 2019 when her then-boyfriend (now fiancé) needed a replacement team mid-season. She picked up a struggling roster, made some shrewd waiver moves, and finished third—while her fiancé finished eighth. They don't talk about that season.

Working in orthopedics has given her a unique perspective on player injuries. She's the person her league-mates text when a player goes down, asking "How bad is it really?" Her medical knowledge combined with fantasy insight has become her signature.

Writing Style

Calm under pressure—a skill that transfers directly from the hospital to fantasy crunch time. Practical, no-nonsense advice is her specialty. She's the reliable one who always meets her article deadlines even when working back-to-back shifts. Her injury analysis is second to none, and she's not afraid to tell you to cut your favorite player if their MRI looks bad.
