Yakima's available roof cargo baskets are the LoadWarrior # Y07070 and MegaWarrior # Y07080. The BasketCase carrier you referenced has been discontinued.
The LoadWarrior and MegaWarrior are designed to sit on top of the crossbars, where the BasketCase sat between the crossbars. Since most roof racks today are getting closer and closer to the vehicle's roof to maintain a low profile, the BasketCase style is not as universal as a cargo basket that sits on top of the crossbars. A great feature of the LoadWarrior and MegaWarrior baskets is that an additional Loadbar can be added to the basket to allow you to mount accessories, like a bike rack, to the top of the cargo basket.
This Loadbar is included with the MegaWarrior # Y07080, MegaWarrior with Extension Kit # Y07080-82, and the LoadWarrior with Extension Kit # Y07070-74.
I have attached a review video of the Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080 for you.
