This week’s edition of “Fantasy Roundup” kicked off with a discussion about the topic on everyone’s minds right now, the 2023 NBA Finals. The hosts broke down their favorite plays using DraftKings’ Daily Fantasy Sports figures.
Spencer Urquhart and Gabe Henderson talked about two players they say have some value in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. Urquhart listed a $5,000 player he believes can emerge as the Denver Nuggets’ No. 3 scoring option. Henderson stuck in the same price range, but he went with a player he described as a “walking bucket” for the Miami Heat.
The focus of the show then shifted to average draft position in fantasy football.

Urquhart and Henderson talked about some early ADPs for some of the league’s biggest names. The hosts picked out some players who they thought are being either overhyped or undervalued at their positions, according to their average draft positions.
The hosts also pinpointed two players to pick up off waivers in fantasy baseball this week at some useful positions.
The show was capped with the usual “Let Me Sound Off” segment with Urquhart and Henderson both circling back to fantasy football for their rants. The hosts urged so-called fantasy experts to stop acting in certain ways as, at their core, fantasy sports are supposed to be about having fun.
