With NBA season set to tip off shortly, here is the latest installment of my fantasy basketball 9-category rankings for the 2023-2024 season.
Well, we made it. Almost. After what seemed like the quickest offseason in NBA history, we are less than two weeks away from watching hoops that count. The NBA's return also brings with it the thing that we all cherish most: fantasy basketball.
Back in July, I kicked off the offseason with my Way Too Early 9-Cat rankings. Since then, plenty has changed. There have been many free-agency signings, a few injuries, and, of course, the Damian Lillard/Jrue Holiday trades that shook the fantasy basketball landscape at its core. Safe to say, things are a bit different now.
While I have updated my rankings dozens of times throughout the offseason, I wanted to share my latest tweaks in the likelihood that you have one or more fantasy drafts on the horizon. So, that's exactly what I'm going to do here. Behold, the latest installment of my 2023-2024 Fantasy Basketball 9-Category rankings.
