I have one IR spot on my roster and have to use it for either Mo Williams or Bogut and drop the other player. Which player would you keep considering their odds of successfully returning from injury and their upside once they do return? My team is pretty balanced so I don't have an especially greater need for a big man versus a PG. This is a tough one for me because whoever I drop will be picked up immediately. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Mo

I'd argue that Bogut has more upside, but he's clearly a riskier choice because his timetable is indefinite and there's still no guarantee he'll play this season. At least with Mo you have a rough idea when to expect him back.
I'm sitting on Bogut right now, and it's annoying.

I was just faced with this situation and chose Bogut.
Mo will be back in 6-8 weeks-ish and will be a top 75-100 type player.
Bogut may or may not be back at some point, but could be a top 25-50 type player (albeit with a really bad FT%).
Depending on your situation, the extra risk may or may not be worth it.

Interesting decision. Part of me says go with Bogut because he could come back much earlier and be more productive. But if a surer thing makes more sense for your team, then you are also looking at 4-4-4 for UTA in the default playoff weeks versus 3-3-3 for GSW. I'd actually lean Bogut on the chance it really works out, but there is an argument for both players. Probably why we're here discussing it in the first place..

Failed to mention I made my decision in a roto league, which makes the Bogut call easier.
