Cooper Flagg enters Year 2 with massive expectations after winning Rookie of the Year, making him one of the most closely watched players as fantasy drafts approach. ESPN Fantasy has compiled a full set of pre-draft resources to help managers prepare for the season.
The ESPN Fantasy basketball draft guide includes rankings and projections for both head-to-head (H2H) points leagues and roto/category leagues. It also features player profiles, strategies for every kind of draft, expert mock drafts, and lists of sleepers, busts and breakouts from some of the best minds in fantasy basketball.
On draft day, managers can print the rankings cheat sheets to track which players have been selected and who to target next. The draft tips cheat sheet collects the best pre-draft content, including the five players each expert is targeting. It also includes Eric Karabell's "Do Draft" and "Do Not" lists and André Snellings' ultimate draft board.
For the rankings themselves, Snellings ranks his top 150 players for both standard H2H points leagues and eight-category roto leagues covering points, 3s, assists, rebounds, steals, blocks, field goal percentage and free throw percentage. Finally, the NBA schedule grid helps managers plan ahead for head-to-head and weekly matchups, selecting players with extra games and avoiding those with thin schedules during the fantasy playoffs.
