Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers
A serious candidate for the MVP award, Kobe Bryant was also a fantasy basketball MVP. He might not have scored as much as in past years but he was very solid all-around. In upcoming seasons, there’s no reason why Bryant shouldn’t be a top five pick.
Allen Iverson, Denver Nuggets
Like Bryant, Allen Iverson doesn’t score as much as he used to. That said, he might be an even better fantasy basketball player. His field goal percentage is high and so are his assist numbers. If you drafted Iverson this year, you should be happy with your investment.

If your fantasy league uses free throw percentage as a category, there’s no doubt that you know how frustrating it can be to have a bad free throw shooter on your team. On the flipside, there are some players who shoot so well from the line that they can hide the deficiencies on your team. Not only does straight up percentage count but as important is the quantity of attempts. Here are the best free throw shooters in fantasy basketball.
1) Dirk Nowtizki, Dallas Mavericks
He gets to the line a whole lot and he hits for a great percentage. Since Avery …read more

1. Chris Paul, New Orleans Hornets
Paul is the best player in all of fantasy basketball this season. His game is perfectly built for him to be a fantasy basketball stud for a long time.
2. LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers
Perhaps the best player in all of the NBA, James is also great in the fantasy world. The scary part is he’s still getting better.
3. Chris Bosh, Toronto Raptors
Bosh is an underrated bigman superstar – in both the NBA and in fantasy basketball. His skill level seems to rise each month he’s in the league.
4. Josh Smith, Atlanta Hawks
Smith is an athletic freak …read more

1) Kobe Bryant, Las Angeles Lakers
It’s no surprise that Bryant is the number one fantasy shooting guard. He came into the season with a lot of hype and is backing it up. The good news is that he should get even better because he’s not scoring as well as he eventually will. Besides his scoring, everything else looks good.
2) Manu Ginobili, San Antonio Spurs
Ginobili has always been a good fantasy player, but this year Ginobili has been a great fantasy player. He’s doing everything and the amazing part is he’s averaging less than 30 minutes per game for the Spurs. …read more

Here are the top ten fantasy basketball players this season according to Yahoo’s standard scoring. All of these games are recognizable but a number of them weren’t expected to be this good.
1) Kevin Garnett
If you have Garnett on your team, you have to be happy with his production. He’s giving you production in every category except three-pointers. There’s a great chance he finishes in the top three this season.

2) Shawn Marion
Although Marion had a tumultuous summer, his fantasy game is as good as ever. Even though his free throw percentage is down a bit, he’s still near the top like …read more

Grant Hill, Phoenix Suns
Hill was the story of Thursday’s preseason action. The former superstar who has been slowed by injuries had a breakout performance. In the first half against the Los Angeles Clippers, Hill had 21 points to show that he still has a little bit of magic left. While he’s still a risky pick due to his injury history, he could really blossom into a very good fantasy player considering his skill level and the system he plays in.
Kevin Martin, Sacramento Kings
Martin was inconsistent last season, leading some fantasy players to wonder how he’d perform this year. So far …read more

Another day of preseason action featuring some teams who are getting on the court for the first time this season. I’ll highlight a player from each team that showed some fantasy promise.
Marcus Camby, Denver Nuggets
Talk about a good opener to a season. Even though it’s only preseason, Camby showed his fantasy potential by pulling down 23 rebounds in only 25 minutes of action. As always, if Camby stays healthy he’s a great fantasy player. He can rebound, block shots and isn’t horrible in any aspect of his game. The problem has always been his health, or lack thereof.
Kevin Martin, …read more

While there are tons of good shooting guards available in this years fantasy NBA draft, there are some shooting guards you should steer clear from drafting, These three shooting guards are overrated and shouldn’t be selected around their average draft position.
Kevin Martin, Sacramento Kings
Martin had wonderful stats last season and was a great story, He’ll continue being an important part of the Kings’ attack, That said, he’s not a top ten fantasy shooting guard as some are stating, He doesn’t do enough other than score and even his scoring dipped as the season went on last year, Look for other …read more
