The Late Round Sleeper: Mission Statement

In this day and age fantasy sports is a multi-million dollar industry that ESPN, Yahoo, and countless other companies have turned into their cash cows, but let us never forgot that this phenomenon began in your best friend Kenny's downstairs "man den" while his unsuspecting wife was actually nurturing and caring for the children.

The mission of The Late Round Sleeper is to take a serious look at fantasy sports without taking it too seriously. The site will focus on the upcoming NBA fantasy season, where perennial sleeper candidates like Tyrus Thomas, Anthony Randolph, and Boris Diaw can make or break the success of your team and the bragging rights involved. We are looking for the guys that may have slipped through the cracks, the players with "attitude issues" who just got dealt to a run-and-gun team, and the "Upside" guys, in other words- fantasy gold.

We will break down the best weekly pick-ups, the buy-low candidates, and the waiver wire warriors that might actually be able to help your team. But most importantly, we will do all of this while respecting the "two beers deep" culture that is the essence of fantasy sports, and what makes it so entertaining and addictive.
