The 2024-25 fantasy basketball season concluded earlier this month, with the usual suspects sitting atop the eight-cat per-game rankings. Nikola Jokić remains at the head of the class, but he faced stiff challenges from Victor Wembanyama (before his season-ending DVT) and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. The other two players in the top-5, Luka Dončić and Anthony Davis, were included in a February trade for each other that shocked the basketball world.
As in on-court basketball, availability is essential in fantasy basketball. Five players in the final top-10 appeared in at least 70 games, including Karl-Anthony Towns and James Harden, ensuring that fantasy managers receive a proper return, depending on where they selected those players in drafts.
The most disappointing top-25 player was unquestionably Joel Embiid. While the per-game numbers put him in that space within the rankings, he only appeared in 19 games, and his status for the start of next season likely won't be known until the summer.
