Should You WORRY About Paolo Banchero & These 4 NBA Players?

Ja Morant's explosive performance with the Memphis Grizzlies has been a highlight in the NBA, but can he maintain this level of play?

Josh Lloyd, from the Locked On Fantasy Basketball Podcast, breaks down these players' recent stats and potential regression. Are Ja Morant's increased shot attempts and Paolo Banchero's improved percentages too good to last? Can Anfernee Simons keep up his scoring pace, and will Bam Adebayo's production hold steady without Jimmy Butler? Stay ahead in your Fantasy Basketball league by understanding these trends.
