Included in this guide are nearly 100 pairings that will get you off to a great start in deep leagues. These pairings are broken down by first-round pick and punting build. 2022-2023 Deep League Pairing Guide For access to all of this year’s punting guides, projections and rankings, pairing guides, sleepers and busts, and much, […]
One of the questions that I get asked the most is when is it ok to reach for X player. That’s a very reasonable question. In competitive leagues, we often have to reach for the players that we want. This guide answers that question for the players currently ranked inside of the top 100 in […]

This list was updated to account for the major rankings update that ESPN made at the end of September. If/when the next major update happens, I will be updating this list to reflect the new rankings. I will also be making adjustments to this list as preseason goes along and rotations start to take form. […]
Luka Doncic (Pick 4-9) Punt FT%: Doncic/James/Gobert/Holiday/McCollum – The ideal Luka punt FT% start. Average in steals, below average in turnovers, and above average everywhere else. Elite in all of the big man categories despite only having one big on the roster. That allows you to go small again in round six if you wish. Elite […]
If you are short on time this draft season, this is the guide for you. Below are 60 five-man combinations that will send you into the sixth round in good shape. I wouldn’t recommend taking this approach, but you could simply copy one of the below starts and finish your draft in a very good […]
Yahoo has cleaned up their rankings quite a bit after a very questionable start to draft season. There are still plenty of players ranked too low in their rankings, but there are not a lot of players that are ranked much higher than they should be. Overall, Yahoo has done a solid job with their […]
ESPN’s rankings are weirder than ever. They are always a mess, but this year they feel especially nonsensical because it seems like they put some effort into their rankings before giving up halfway. If you take a look at their rankings, you’ll see that they did their homework with some players. Ja Morant is in a reasonable […]

Luka Doncic (Pick 4-9) Punt FT%: Luka Doncic/LeBron James Above average in Points, Threes, Rebounds, Assists, Blocks Average in FG% Below Average in Steals, Turnovers From a per-game standpoint, this is the perfect Luka pairing in punt FT% in eight-category leagues. In nine-category leagues, it is still ideal, but it loses some appeal because it […]
Giannis Antetokounmpo (Pick 2-4) Punt FT%: Giannis Antetokounmpo/Fred VanVleet Above average in Rebounds, Assists, Steals, Blocks, Turnovers Average in Points, Threes, FG% On a per-game basis, this is a perfect pairing. Giannis-led teams go into the second in an average-or-worse spot in threes, assists, and steals. Adding Fred to a Giannis-led squad brings the team […]
This is version 2 of this year’s Yahoo Sleepers/Undervalued Players list. Below are more than two dozen players that are currently ranked lower than they should be on Yahoo. Some of the players on this list are traditional sleeper types, but most are known names that Yahoo has mispriced for one reason or another. Players […]
The Punt Steals Strategy This is another punting guide that is worth a read, even if you have another strategy in mind. Not because it’s a strategy that a large chunk of your league is going to use like punt FG% is, but because this is a strategy that works well not only as a […]
The Punt Points Strategy If you are the type that likes to swing for the fences, then this is the punting strategy for you. Punt assists, punt FG%, and friends are all great strategies that can lead to a team that dominates your league, but none of those builds have the upside that punt points […]
The Punt Blocks Strategy The punt blocks strategy is another strategy that you should at least familiarize yourself with. Not because it’s guaranteed to show up in your league like punt FG% and punt FT% are, but because like its sister strategy, punt steals, it is one of the easiest strategies to switch to mid-draft. […]
The Punt FT% Strategy The punt FT% strategy is a strategy that will show up in every single competitive H2H league. As long as Giannis Antetokounmpo and Luka Doncic continue to throw up bricks at the line, there will be a place for the OG of punting strategies. While you will see this strategy in every league, you […]
Instead of coming up with a traditional sleepers and busts list for salary cap leagues, I have put together an analysis that identifies players who are overpriced and underpriced in the various league settings and punting strategies. This analysis compares a player’s projected value in dollars based on Elite Fantasy Basketball’s projections to their average […]
