If you're feeling underprepared for your fantasy NBA draft, we have you covered with our top 200 fantasy basketball rankings for the 2021-'22 season. Should you take Nikola Jokic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Luka Doncic, Kevin Durant, or James Harden with the No. 1 pick? How about if your draft slot is later in the first round ? Where do Lakers' teammates LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Russell Westbrook rank? Once it gets deeper into the draft, which potential breakout players should you target? Our top 200 cheat sheet can help with the top-tier studs and the later-round sleepers.
Below, you can find each player accompanied by their current team, position eligibility, and position rank. Pay attention to which players are eligible at multiple positions, as that can help with roster flexibility and provide advantages in specific categories.
DOMINATE YOUR DRAFT: 2021 fantasy basketball cheat sheet
Injuries, surprise busts, and even more surprising breakouts will happen this year. They always do. You can only prepare so much during your draft, but having a solid top 200 at your disposal -- along with rankings for each individual position (which can be found directly below) -- can go a long way toward feeling good about your roster and having some big holes when the season tips off on Tuesday, Oct. 19.
Good luck in 2021!
