Week 22 is “Championship Week” for Yahoo! public leagues and leagues that use the default settings. And with most of the NBA’s teams playing four games, there won’t be a lack of options amongst teams competing for playoff seeding or looking to improve their draft lottery odds. Here are some low-rostered players (below 50 percent in Yahoo! leagues) who should be on your radar heading into Week 22.
Priority Adds
1. Justin Edwards

2. Toumani Camara
3. Kyle Filipowski
4. Scotty Pippen Jr.
5. Guerschon Yabusele
6. Matas Buzelis
7. Gary Trent Jr.
8. Davion Mitchell
9. Keldon Johnson
10. Anthony Black
SG/SF/PF Toumani Camara (49%), Portland Trail Blazers
Camara remains rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo! leagues. Even though the Trail Blazers have fallen off the pace in the race for the final play-in spot, the second-year wing may be safe from a late-season shutdown. Camara has been among the best defenders in the NBA this season and has made strides offensively. Since the All-Star break, he has averaged 13.6 points per game on 47.8 percent shooting from the field, one reason why Camara has been a top-50 player in nine-cat formats. Portland plays four games during Week 22, with two against teams that will also be in the draft lottery (Toronto and San Antonio).

PG/SG Scotty Pippen Jr. (37%), Memphis Grizzlies
The Grizzlies have been without Ja Morant since March 14, with the starting point guard missing six games with a hamstring injury. While Luke Kennard was the replacement in the starting lineup for the first three contests, Pippen took over that role in the last three and has provided top-10 value in eight-cat formats over the past week. If Morant is available for the beginning of Week 22, there won’t be a need to roster Pippen in most leagues. However, with Memphis beginning the week with a Monday/Tuesday back-to-back, there’s the opportunity to get at least one start out of Pippen for injury management reasons.
SF Justin Edwards (36%), Philadelphia 76ers
The 76ers’ intentions are well-known by now, as the front office looks to strengthen its chances of holding onto its top-6 protected…
