Yahoo Fantasy Basketball has published its full 2026-27 nine-category rankings, and the list runs to 200 players across all five positions. The rankings come from Dan Titus, a Yahoo Fantasy Basketball analyst, and they are meant to help drafters prepare for the upcoming NBA season.
The rankings cover point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward and center, with a single combined list available below as well. Yahoo says the page will be updated throughout the preseason as new information comes in.
What the Rankings Cover
The nine-category format rewards points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, three-pointers made, free throws made, field goals made and field goal percentage. That mix puts a premium on efficient scoring as well as traditional counting stats.
Titus’s list ranks players from 1 to 200 based on projected value in those categories.
How to Use the List
The rankings are presented as a single table, but users can also toggle between individual position lists. Yahoo advises saving and bookmarking the page so drafters can return to it as the season begins.
The rankings are live now, and Yahoo promises updates as the preseason progresses. For drafters who want to plan ahead, the current list is the starting point.
