Team has been pretty mediocre, though I think with a move or two I think I can be pretty dominant, but need some help getting there.
League Rules:
We play one opponent each week, and scoring is based category based:
FG%, FT%, 3pters, Total Points, Rebounds, Assists, Blocks, Steals, Turnovers
Lineup:
PG, SG, G, PF, SF, F, C, Utility, Utility, Utility
My Team:
Stephen Curry, PG, SG
JJ Redick SG
Darren Collison PG
Lance Thomas SF, SG
Tim Duncan PF, C
Marcin Gortat C
Dwayne Wade PG, SG
Brook Lopez C
Bismark Biyombo C
Kyrie Irving PG
Ish Smith PG
Deron Williams PG

I've been most deficient in the areas of 3 pointers, assists, and turnovers (though that usually goes to the player with most games played each week it seems).
Given my strength at guard and center, I should probably try to package them for a SF? It's advantageous to get as many starts as you can per week, and I'm definitely losing out on SF, and having to sit some of the pg's.

My advice would be don't go chasing every cat. Be real good in 6 of them.

1st, how many teams? and what are the add drop rules? and daily or weekly lineups? plus I assume you left someone off because you can't fill the 3rd forward spot.
one of the first things I would do is drop Biyombo (with ole boy coming back from injury) and stream that position.
I agree with the last poster that punting a category is a good idea. and yea I would try to get some more SF/PF type players especially one that stuffs the stats.
If you are already struggling in assists even with the large # of Pg's, try to trade Collison, Smith, or Williams for SG/SF combos or SF/PF guys. Lance Thomas being your only SF is killing you.
Id imagine your fg% and ft% are never a problem. Punt assists which in turn will help your TO's. I assume you do fine in points, rebounds, blocks, and steals.
I think getting Kyrie healthy will help your 3's. I think you could compete in 3's with him healthy and if you trade for someone like Middleton (bucks), Bradley(Celtics), Heyward(jazz) buy low guys like korver or ariza
or just try to get others who help with a little bit of it all who will boost those other 4 like bazemore(hawks), Antetokounmpo (bucks), demare Carroll (raptors), Iguodola (warriors), young (nets), DeRozan
some of those would be a stretch to trade for but you get the idea.
Core of:
Curry, Irving, Reddick, wade
Duncan, gortat, Lopez
stream a spot
add 1 or 2 stat stuffers
plus which ever of the three point guards who can retain
I think you have a solid squad.

Thank you for your feedback, here are the particulars I left out:
12 Team League
We can do 4 add/drops per week (game)
I did a spreadsheet of my categories and this is what I was able to mine from them:
FG% - 6-3
FT% - 6-3
3Ptm - 6-3
Pts - 3-5-1
Reb - 3-6
Ast - 4-5
Stl - 2-7
Blk - 6-3
TO - 6-2-1
I think a couple of these are anomalies due to the fact I've had a vacant roster spot with Kyrie Irving so as soon as he gets back to full health those will take care of themselves.
I cut Lance Thomas and picked up Cody Zeller due to Al Jefferson being hurt.
I offered a guy Duncan/Reddick for Nic Batum.

I just picked up zeller too. I was trying to decide between him and Frank the tank. Both should have good value til jefferson returns which will prbly be later than 6 weeks.
Yea kyrie returning will help a ton. I had a similar issue with tyreke being hurt to start the year.
I would definitely try to figure out a category to punt. Kyrie wasnt a big assit guy last year if i remember correctly. He will definitely help points and steals though. And help regain 3s lost if you trade reddick.
With the 4 transactions, i would stream a player every couple of days. We have a 3 limit and i try to find back to backs bigs granted im in 10 team league and need the rebound help.
I like the trade though. batum will help you in a lot of places. And reddick is a good sell high since he is an injury risk

Fournier started off hot last year too before cooling off and getting his minutes cut. Would not trade Kyrie for him.
