The Playlist: Fantasy basketball waiver-wire adds and schedule breakdown for Week 4 of 2026-27

No team is undefeated or winless heading into Week 4 and the injuries haven’t really let up. Fantasy basketball managers who patiently waited for Kon Knueppel’s debut were quickly disappointed after he lasted less than 10 minutes before aggravating his hamstring injury. Then, Keyonte George left Sunday’s contest after suffering an ankle injury.

There’s tons of players questionable to start the week, so let’s get to the players I’m focusing on who are under 50% rostered on Yahoo.

🎧 Who’s in My Rotation

Shallow leagues (30%-50% rostered)

Kris Dunn – PG/SG, Los Angeles Clippers – (46% rostered)

Dunn will eventually be traded, but until then, make sure he’s not on waivers. He is chipping in across the board, averaging 8.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 2.8 steals and 0.6 blocks in 30.4 minutes. He’s recorded multiple steals in six of eight games. The Clippers’ backcourt has underwhelmed outside of Dunn, so the minutes will continue to be there. He’s posting 31 FPPG in High Score and will be worth streaming (at minimum) on Tuesday at Phoenix. I’d still grab and hold regardless of schedule.

Aaron Wiggins – SG/SF, Atlanta Hawks – (42% rostered)

Atlanta’s newest weapon is off to a hot start, averaging 14.9 points and nearly 3 3s in 26 minutes per game. On Saturday, Wiggins went for 20 points with 5 3s, 6 assists, 4 rebounds and a steal in a win over Brooklyn, tying his season high in points and setting one in assists. He’s been a top-100 player in 9-cat through four weeks and is a strong source of points, 3s and steals with a low turnover rate.

Brayden Burries – SG, Milwaukee Bucks – (35% rostered)

The rookie has started three straight games over Ryan Rollins, making him a must-add. He put up a career-high 21 points, 11 rebounds, 6 assists and a block in 38 minutes in Friday’s loss to Toronto. As a starter, he’s averaging 13.0 points, 8.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists. His shooting has been rough (42.6% from the field), so his production comes from his ability to generate counting stats in the core categories. Milwaukee plays four times, with the first two being a Tuesday/Wednesday…
