Quincy

Acy

Acy is 28 years old with seven years of NBA experience, but he was never much more than a backup. It’s unclear if his contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv has an NBA-out clause, but his NBA playing days could be over, anyway.

AD was able to participate at shootaround, but we don’t know how active he was, and didn’t hear anything about Okafor participating. Owners will have to wait for them to go through their pregame routine before we get official word on their status, but if both these guys are out, Cheick Diallo will make for a very attractive DFS target. Stay tuned.

Acy actually saw a decent amount of time with Deandre Ayton (ankle) and Richaun Holmes (foot) out the last few games, but didn’t make much of a fantasy impact in his stint with the Suns. He’ll likely get signed by another team, but he’s still off the fantasy radar.

He continues to play right behind Dragan Bender, and he’s not usually a per-minute guy besides boards. Sure, this man has received MVP chants at MSG before, but he would need minutes in the upper 20s to have value in most leagues. Unless you want to count on Bender foul trouble against Nikola Jokic on Friday, Acy isn’t an option.

Both Richaun Holmes (foot) and Deandre Ayton (ankle) were ruled out in the fourth, so Acy may have to get the start against Karl-Anthony Towns on Sunday. If so, he could be worth a look as a DFS punt, but there’s little incentive to add him in season-long leagues until we get more info on the young centers.

He was still in the rotation last night even with Devin Booker back in action. Acy is basically playing right behind T.J. Warren, who logs heavy minutes at the four for the Suns. Acy is only worth a look in ridiculously deep leagues.

It’s 10-day season and the Suns will slide Acy into Eric Moreland’s spot after cutting him this week. Acy will be the third center on the depth chart or even the fourth with the Suns using Dragan Bender there. Leave him on the wire. Additionally, this is somewhat good news for De’Anthony Melton and Elie Okobo.

Acy has shown promise with a somewhat versatile inside-out game, but any enthusiasm gets chased by negative marks up and down the checklist on both sides of the floor. At 21 years old he is relatively undeveloped and therefore has some untapped upside, but he has a ways to go before he sees the floor.

Acy signed his contract on Sunday and could compete for minutes on the wing during his rookie season. Acy will have a chance to make his presence felt in Toronto but we’re not expecting any miracles right out of the gate.

Carroll hurt his right shoulder while battling through a screen set by Kendrick Perkins on Friday. He played 19 minutes on Saturday and had four points, three rebounds and one steal in a start. He only has value in very deep leagues while Marvin Williams (concussion) is out of the lineup.
