While Valanciunas’ production has declined over the last three years, the 33-year-old center has proven that he’s still durable appearing in 79, 82 and 81 games. After a midseason trade to the Kings last year, he adequately filled in for Domantas Sabonis while he dealt with injury. Valanciunas could offer the Nuggets similar big man insurance and have fantasy streaming value on nights Nikola Jokic takes off.

On Tuesday, Denver added another shooter to its roster, reportedly signing Hardaway to a one-year deal. In his first and only season with the Pistons, the veteran guard was a fixture in the starting lineup. Making 77 appearances, all starts, Hardaway averaged 11.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.2 three-pointers per game, shooting nearly 37 percent from three. THJ’s scoring average decreased compared to his 2023-24 production with the Mavericks, but he’s a capable shooter who should provide the Nuggets with solid value off the bench.

Brown, a solid contributor off the bench for the Nuggets’ title team in 2023, is headed back to the Mile High City. He’ll be on a one-year contract, and the role should be similar, especially with the Nuggets acquiring Cam Johnson from the Nets. Despite coming off the bench, Brown provided consistent fantasy value in Denver, but the last two seasons have been disappointing. He’s unlikely to be a player worth selecting in standard league drafts, but there may come a point when he’s a valuable waiver wire addition.

Unsurprisingly, Ayton has decided to join the Lakers after agreeing with the Trail Blazers on a contract buyout. Los Angeles had a clear need at the center position, and they’ll look to the first overall pick in the 2018 draft to fill it. While he has averaged a double-double in his first seven seasons, Ayton’s last two years in Portland were underwhelming. Limited to 40 games last year due to injury, he averaged 14.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 30.2 minutes. Ayton is not the uber-athletic center who tends to flourish playing alongside Luka Doncic, but he’ll play starter’s minutes for a hopeful contender. Being in a lineup with Doncic, LeBron James and Austin Reaves will limit Ayton’s fantasy ceiling, but providing top-100 per-game value should not be an issue.

No surprise here as it’s been clear the Raptors covet Poeltl. The 29-year-old center’s name was kept out of trade discussions, including when the Raptors were calling on the availability of Kevin Durant before he was traded to Houston. Poeltl averaged 14.5 points and 9.6 rebounds across 57 games for the Raptors last year. He’s locked in as the Raptors center for the next four years after picking up his player option and adding three additional years.

The Bucks acquired Sims last year in the four-team trade that sent Khris Middleton to the Wizards and Kyle Kuzma also to the Bucks. The 26-year-old backup big man appeared in a career-high 53 games last year as well as all five of the Bucks’ playoff games. Sims isn’t much of a fantasy factor when the Bucks are at full strength.
