Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be promoted
CWashington Wizards
January 9, 2020
The Wizards would like to promote Pasecniks to the 15-man roster, Candace Buckner of The Washington Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Pasecniks has impressed in 12 games since joining the Wizards, averaging 8.4 points and 6.2 boards in 22.2 minutes per game. However, the team currently has a full roster, meaning they'd need to cut or trade someone already on the team. Ian Mahinmi, C.J. Miles and Isaiah Thomas could all candidates to be on the move to make room for Pasecniks.

2020 Fantasy Outlook
Pasenicks showed some potential in limited opportunity during his first NBA season, averaging 5.8 points and 4.0 rebounds across 16.2 minutes over 27 games. The 24-year-old could likely benefit from adding some more bulk to a frame that was listed at 229 pounds last season (at a height of 7-foot-1), To open the 2020-21 campaign, he projects fourth in the pecking order for playing time at center behind Thomas Bryant, veteran offseason addition Robin Lopez and Moritz Wagner. Pasecniks therefore could be the subject of a DNP-CD on many nights and may consequently be given plenty of developmental run in the G League.
