Top waiver wire targets identified for fantasy basketball

As the fantasy basketball playoffs approach, many managers are facing injuries and resting players. Some key players are still available on the waiver wire, and adding them could help boost your team. Shaedon Sharpe from the Portland Trail Blazers has shown great improvement. He is now shooting 44.9% this season and has started the last 11 games, averaging 18.1 points and 6.0 rebounds per game. With injuries to other players, Sharpe is likely to stay in the starting lineup. Keldon Johnson of the San Antonio Spurs is also a strong option. After injuries on his team, Johnson is playing well, with 14.2 points and 5.0 rebounds per game over the last five games. He is very efficient, shooting 54.9% from the field. Miles McBride from the New York Knicks is stepping up while Jalen Brunson is injured. McBride is averaging 12.6 points and 5.1 assists over his last seven games, despite struggling with his shooting percentage. Keon Johnson, playing for the Brooklyn Nets, has started four consecutive games and is averaging 15.5 points. With another player sidelined, Johnson is likely to get more minutes and could contribute significantly. Spencer Dinwiddie of the Dallas Mavericks has increased his playtime and production due to injuries on his team. He is averaging 15.9 points and has been logging a lot of minutes, making him a valuable pickup. Lastly, Kevin Huerter from the Chicago Bulls is playing well after joining the team. He has averaged 15.5 points and 3.6 rebounds over his last 12 games, showing good shooting from three-point range. These players could provide essential support as the fantasy basketball season moves into its final weeks.
