Ziki Loves Pushing Chandler Parsons

Chandler Parsons is a valuable fantasy asset because he provides a little of everything. Although that's more useful in rotisserie style scoring, Parsons can still impact head-to-head leagues. Parsons, however, still isn't considered anywhere near a top 40 player. Therefore Pope was not happy when he received this trade offer:

Ziki gets: Serge Ibaka
Pope gets: Chandler Parsons

Trade offer rating: 6 Stars

Explanation: It's not the worst offer Ziki's ever made, but it's pretty bad. Ibaka has tremendous value in head-to-head leagues because he's rather dominant in FG% and blocks, while rather strong in rebounds as well. His points have also sky rocketed this year with the departure of James Harden. Naturally this makes him the kind of player Ziki is looking for -- a top 15-20 fantasy player he can rip off someone else. It would've made sense to check with Pope first to see what Pope actually wanted in his fantasy categories, given that it's all the stats Ibaka provides. But that would be expecting way too much from the always ambitious ZIki.
