The Story in 60 Seconds

Ty Jerome evaluates fantasy basketball risers and fallers, advising managers to target Milwaukee Bucks rookie Burries on waiver wires and hold Chicago Bulls forward Matas Buzelis. Burries moved into the Bucks' starting rotation and recently delivered 21 points, 11 rebounds, and six assists in a loss against the Raptors.

Jerome recommends exercising patience with Buzelis despite his slow start and ranking outside the top 200, suggesting managers hold or trade for him at a low price. In contrast, Jerome advises that struggling veteran Andrew Wiggins is a justifiable drop candidate due to declining production and minutes.
