Celtics player rankings in Yahoo Fantasy Basketball. Real or fantasy?

 Count me as a devoted fan of Fantasy Basketball. The real world has not been uplifting lately, so sojourns into the fantasy world are welcome. Yahoo's Fantasy rankings this season, however, do not bode well for the Boston Celtics chances of success. Here are the top-5 Celtics:


#23: Jaylen Brown

#46: Derrick White

#81: Anfernee Simons

#95: Payton Pritchard

#238: Sam Hauser

With Brown at #23, that means he probably gets drafted towards the end of the second round - which I did in a mock draft.. White makes sense at #46 since many expect him to start once again and to take on a bigger load. Derrick is a player I may stretch for in a real draft.

Simons beat out Pritchard, but the former may prove to be too much of a defensive liability. Pritchard was drafted early in my mock draft. I expect him to (at least) increase his production this season, whether he starts or not.

Then it's a stretch for Hauser at #238. I expected him to be ranked a bit higher. He could be a sleeper, but I doubt I will be looking for him - unless is comes down to my last pick and I need another small forward or power forward,

There you have it. Not great projections for Boston's 2025-26 season. But another trade or free agent signing by Brad Stevens could brighten the picture. And this is fantasy after all. Isn't it?

  1. My name is Craven, and I’m from New York. I used to suffer from Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and I want to share my story to show that healing is possible, even from illnesses that seem incurable. I know how difficult and frustrating COPD can be because I lived through it. Conventional treatments didn’t bring the results I hoped for. But everything changed when I came across (www.earthcureherbalclinic.com) through a simple Google search and contacted them by email at (info@earthcureherbalclinic.com). Their natural healing program made a profound difference in my life. Today, I am completely free of COPD, and I couldn’t be more grateful!!

A sorrowful farewell to Kitty's Restaurant (North Reading, MA) as a family tradition

  Time to say "Goodbye" to Kitty's Restaurant - my   family's destination and tradition for six generations and more than 80 years. My memories of Kitty's go back to the early-1950's . I would accompany my dad and grandfather on fishing trips to the Ipswich River in North Reading, Massachusetts - followed by a visit to the restaurant on Main Street. In later years, my wife, Linda, and I would eat there with our two kids, Marc and Lisa - and years later - with our two grand daughters - and still later - with our great grandson, Carson. Author and family at Kitty's approx. 10 years ago Kitty's never disappointed. The drinks were big and well-made . The food was terrific - as were the portions. The service was exceptional and we became well-acquainted with the waiters and waitresses. It all worked so very well for many decades. My grand daughter, Courtney , was particularly fond of the restaurant. She was born with cystic fibrosis , and during her fr...
