Fantasy basketball draft season is coming down the home stretch, with the start of the NBA regular season arriving on Tuesday, October 22. For those drafting in the next few days, I have you covered with the final preseason update of my annual Top 150 player rankings.
In the chart below, I have provided three different sets of rankings: one for roto leagues (ROTO), one for head-to-head category leagues (H2H), and one for points-based leagues (PTS).
For the majority of players, there will be little variance — a similar ranking across all three scoring formats. But for certain players, as you’ll see, the scoring format makes a huge difference.
This cheat sheet will be updated at least a couple of times during preseason, so be sure to check back again if you’re drafting in mid-to-late October.
Happy drafting, and best of luck to you this season. On to the rankings!
Note: The last column (far right) in the table below is the average ranking (AVG) for each player for the three scoring formats combined.
