Scoring: point 1, rebound 1.2, assist 1.5, steal 3, block 3, turnover −1. How we project: each player's fantasy points per game over the last two completed regular seasons, weighted by games played, with the more recent season counting double. Once the 2026-27 season starts, its games count triple. Players with fewer than 15 games in that window, including rookies, are not ranked yet.
