Free Underdog Fantasy NBA Best Ball Rankings

With the NBA Season a week away and NFL Best Ball drafts starting to wind to a close, many DFS players have turned to the Underdog Fantasy lobby to get their fix for some season-long NBA. The lack of daily or weekly management is the perfect format for DFS players to get some action down without having to add the waiver grind to the DFS grind.

This year, we are releasing our FREE 2020 NBA Top 200 list including best ball rankings for the Underdog Fantasy format. Piggybacking off of our overall baselines for the 2020 DFS season, we’ve aggregated season-long minute projections and mapped them to the Underdog scoring format to create statistical projections for every player on the season.

Points Rank

These are the raw highest projected scorers on the season based on the scoring format. There is some positional scarcity so much like in NFL best ball you don’t just jam QBs early (except always Mahomes) you’ll want to take into account positional value.

Positional Value Rank

This takes into account scarcity at each position to better proxy where a player should be drafted. Lebron James and Jayson Tatum will likely score fewer points than Trae Young but play at a position with less depth.

ADP

The current Underdog Fantasy ADP for each player.

Target Draft Spot

Every good bettor shows respect for the market. Between ensuring you haven’t overlooked a situation and ensuring you don’t draft a player three rounds too early it is good to show respect for the market. The target draft spot is our final ranking.

Players the Model is Highest On: George Hill, Kyle Anderson, Alec Burks, Isaac Okoro, Danny Green, Shake Milton, Marcus Morris, Danuel House

Players the Model is Lowest On: Jaren Jackson Jr, Kristaps Porzingis, Blake Griffin, Lauri Markkanen, Kemba Walker, Kevin Love, Mitchell Robinson
