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 readingHow to replace Mike Conley in fantasy basketball
Two seasons ago, this would have been an imaginary roundball gut punch. Conley’s been a rock-solid top-10 fantasy floor general — good but never elite in any particular category (other than two seasons where he averaged 2.2 steals). These days?

Don’t worry; I have […]

Here’s a look at the players who stand out this week, with their ownership percentage listed.
