Karl-Anthony Towns’ move to the New York Knicks is set to shake up the NBA Fantasy Basketball landscape. With Towns returning to the centre position, his fantasy value is poised for a significant boost. Meanwhile, Julius Randle’s transition to the Minnesota Timberwolves could see a dip in his fantasy performance, as he adjusts to sharing the court with Anthony Edwards and Rudy Gobert.
Josh Lloyd breaks down the implications of this blockbuster trade, examining how Donte DiVincenzo’s new role with the Timberwolves might affect his fantasy relevance. The Knicks’ roster changes open doors for players like Josh Hart and Jalen Brunson, who are expected to step up and enhance their fantasy production. How will these shifts impact your NBA Fantasy Basketball strategy?

Respect to Josh! Churned out this video immediately upon the trade news came out. On a Saturday and AFL final ongoing. Thank you!
ahah i love it 17:21
I’m not sure this makes the Knicks that much better, but they are damn good, still think the Celtics are slightly better but it’s gonna be close. I don’t hate this for Minnesota either, the Towns and Gobert combo didn’t really work. I’m not sure it makes Minnesota better either. It’s a good deal for both teams that makes both teams probably about the same.
I don’t think Donte is losing value at all. He’s better than all of the bench players he’s matched against, he’s now their best shooter, and Donte will be their 4th best perimeter defender
Knicks need to transfer 8.8M salary to Charlotte. So either Robinson or both Achuwa and Payne for example. Don’t know who yet other than the Knicks said McBride will not be traded.
Hold up doesn't Thibs hate KAT
KAT IS TOO SOFT …..but has a great 80 pct shot the middle will not be protected by him
When Mitchell Robinson comes back Towns could play some PF but generally I think he will be the center.
Naz reid gonna cook
Does this mean that Rob dillingham gets top 150 consideration?
Your the first place I come for trade breakdowns. Glad to see this posted this morning when I woke up!
Josh, I’ve been watching you for years now. The production level at this point is incredible. Some of the visual graphics/transitions can be cleaned up a bit, but what a job you’ve done here. Truly incredible the way you’ve continued to improve and innovate.
Truly the best fantasy basketball show in the world, and it’s not up for debate at this point.
Hats off, thanks for all your hard work. Excited for the season to kick into gear.
Hart is a pretty darn good rebounder for the Knicks and for his position. He averaged over 8 a game last season.
Nice intro
What about Naz Reid?
You didn’t mention him on the winner side!!
Bro can you make a 16man 9cat draft recommendation? I’ve seen your video fron 2 years ago and I badly need your help.
No zach lowe no problem we have Josh 😅
NY Media gonna make KAT cry. 😭 🍼
Josh, missed my sign up link for LOFB BOWL due to being abroad with limited access to internet. IS there still a chance to get in?
Someone wants to trade their 2nd round, 3rd round and 4th round picks for my 1st overall pick should I do it?
I think this will end up being bad for the timberwolves imo
Would you say it's fair to call Randle "Midwest Bobby Portis" now?
10 team auction draft here is going more stars better than going balanced. My thinking is the waiver pool will be huge, any comments help thank you!!!
Crazy trade also Towns for Randle WOW
Trade randle for Myles Turner for the pf spot and TJ McConnell for pg spot and a 2nd rounder
would you now take towns ahead of sengun in a 9 CAT H2H format?
So Robinson just comes off the bench? For his 30 healthy games this season
bang, bang bang bang bang.
Is there a world where Randle does not play and being moved to let Naz take the spot?
There is slight possibility in my opinion for Donte to be the starting small forward for Minnesota and Jaden coming off the bench
2 opens posts for a 14 man competitive league, buy in is 125
This is a bad trade for Minnesota. Randle is a downgrade
Hey Josh, signed up for the points league last week just checking in if invites are still going out?
Respectfully mate I couldn't disagree more with the Donte take. After KAT I see him as the biggest winner here and absolutely sky rockets in 6MOTY candidacy. Expecting close to 30 mins a night out of him now and I can see lineups where he replaces Conley a bunch and Reid replaces Gobert for a incredibly mobile, floor spacing, defensive minded lineup. Just my 2c mate. Love your content as always
Haliburton and jalen green or trae young and Kat. On sleeper
I just dont see why they wouldn't play Donte wouldn't play next to Ant… Conley is old now bring him off the bench.
