Fantasy Hoops Players! 

Welcome to the 2017-2018 Fantasy Basketball season. The 2017 NBA off-season was crazy! Many impact players changed teams. Chris Paul is on the Rockets! Carmelo Anthony and Paul George have joined Russell Westbrook on the Thunder! With a good amount of team rotations changed from last season, which players can we trust to produce for our fantasy teams? That’s where we come in!

I hope this guide points you in the right direction, but that’s all it should be: a guide. The only way to win a fantasy basketball Championship is by learning how a team runs, what to look for on the stat sheet and between the stats. You will not only learn how to make draft day decisions on your own, but you’ll also learn how to run your team throughout the course of the season.  

We can give you a #1-300 player rankings sheet, but what are you learning? Nothing! This guide teaches YOU how to be Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, Gregg Popovich etc. This guide is going to educate you on how to balance your team, what to watch for when watching your players play and standout stats of players that can contribute to your overall roto score and/or head to head category score this season.

Just like in an NBA game, this guide is 48 minutes of game planning, screen setting against players you want to avoid drafting and of course identifying those clutch players and sleepers who could end up being difference makers in your team ending up as the No. 1 seed versus a lottery team.

Don’t like a player we recommend? Don’t draft him! Worried about a team having a tight rotation with barely any wiggle room to add in an 8th or 9th man? Feel free to stay away! You’ll learn that it’s possible for the worst NBA teams to be comprised of sleeper fantasy potential. If you want to be a player, skip right to the rankings portion of this guide and enjoy. If you want to become a Coach though, and learn the ins and outs of the game of basketball and how to read through the stat trends, it will make your lives easier throughout the season. Be a Coach! Be a GM! Win!

By studying this guide, when you watch your players play (which you should absolutely do on a semi-consistent basis) you’ll be able to tell real quick how involved your players are on offense on their respective NBA teams. This guide will make you an even bigger NBA fan and you’ll see the game of Basketball differently than you ever have.

John Wooden, one of the greatest basketball coaches of all-time once said, “Things turn out best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out”. What you’re about to read is not only a “draft guide”, but it serves as a class to make you understand the game of basketball. Worried about having a bad draft? Don’t be! The Fantasy Alarm team and this guide are sticking with you throughout the duration of the season, just like a best friend should!

On a personal note, I’m very passionate about the NBA! I love watching tape, learning about the players, how the 30 NBA teams run and talking about the league. If you need any extra assistance leading up to your drafts AND throughout the season please reach out to me on twitter @FenstySports. After six months of waiting, it’s time to play the game. Lets make this season YOUR season and win you that ring. I look forward to seeing you all at the Championship Parade in April. Winning time starts right here and right now!

Sincerely,

Justin “Fensty” Fensterman
