Fantasy rankings: Towns jumps past Curry into top three
It went from Kevin Durant leaving Oklahoma City for Western Conference rival Golden State, to Tim Duncan deciding to join Kobe Bryant in retirement, to an assortment of high-profile coaching changes, to the U.S. taking home an Olympic gold in Rio. And we haven’t even mentioned the infusion of talent the June draft added to […]
Continue readingLillard overtakes LeBron in rest-of-season fantasy rankings
These rankings are based on season-long rotisserie formats. That means that players who excel in one or two categories will be ranked higher and those who fail miserably in percentages will be ranked lower than they would be in a points system.

Now, with the Wolves playing the Houston Rockets on Wednesday, let’s take a moment to review a day five years ago that has quietly contributed to the extension of Minnesota’s long basketball winter. Though there are others, the Rockets have played the largest part in this extended chapter. This is not meant to be yet […]
Continue readingMonroe, Millsap and Pekovic on rise
As I warned last week, this time-share will continue to frustrate fantasy owners unless an injury strikes in the Raptors’ backcourt. Calderon and Lowry have individual value, but they’ll continue to cut into each other’s minutes and production for the foreseeable future. Note: Brian McKitish’s top 130 players are ranked for their fantasy value from […]
