About these projections

Fantasy basketball projections for 2026-27

These are per-game projections for every NBA player for the 2026-27 season: points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, threes, turnovers and shooting, ranked for a points league or a nine-category league. Where the rankings are an order, the projections are the numbers underneath one, so this is the page to read when you want to know why a player sits where he does and what he is expected to give you on an average night.

The top 50 ranks and their values are free to everyone. Every projected stat line, and the rest of the model, is part of Pro, and once a league from ESPN, Yahoo, Sleeper or Fantrax is synced the board reranks under that league's own point values. The same numbers are priced in dollars on the auction values page, drafted from live in Draft Hacker and weighed in Trade Winner.

What is the difference between rankings and projections?

Rankings are an order, and ours are a blend of what our analysts think. Projections are numbers: the points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, threes, turnovers and shooting percentages we expect each player to average per game in 2026-27. The projections page ranks players by those numbers under whichever scoring you choose, so it is the board to use when you want to see why a player sits where he does.

Can I rank the projections under my league's scoring?

Yes. Switch between points and nine-category scoring at the top of the page, and once a league from ESPN, Yahoo, Sleeper or Fantrax is synced the board reranks under that league's own point values.

How much of the projections is free?

The top 50 ranks and their values are free to everyone. Every projected stat line, and the rest of the model, is part of Pro.
