Matt Stroup is joined by Steve Alexander and special return guest Brian Rosenworcel (fantasy basketball expert / drummer for Guster) to hit the week's most serviceable and intriguing waiver pickups, including Shabazz Napier, Donte DiVincenzo, Monte Morris and Luke Kornet. We also consider the outlook in a new home (Portland for Trevor Ariza), ponder the second-half upside for Cam Reddish, and make note of a serious scoring binge for Svi Mykhailiuk.
