    Stud Sleepers, Values and Busts on the Nets, Pacers and Cavaliers (Ep 9/10)

    Another trio in the books! The Nets added Julius Randle and a potentially interesting rookie, but is there enough usage to go around? The Pacers have Tyrese Haliburton back, but do they immediately jump back to being contenders? The Cavaliers have done next to nothing this offseason. So that's pretty whack.

    Stud Sleepers, Values and Busts on the Hornets and Wizards (Ep 7/10)

    The Hornets might be fun. They also might not. But Coby White is the point guard, and a lot of questions exist on how far Knueppel can go and what the frontcourt will look like. Plus, the Wizards went from tanking to top-heavy - how much draft capital is too much to spend on the injury prone Anthony Davis and turnover-prone Trae Young?

    Stud Sleepers, Values and Busts on the Heat, Magic and Hawks (Ep 6/10)

    Giannis Antetokounmpo is IN for Miami, but overall, the Heat lost more players than they gained. Does that create a window for a third strong option? The Magic have their core locked up for 3-5 years, so it's all about draft position. And the Hawks seemingly have four spots all but squared away, but who gets that last wing job?
