Fantasy Basketball Player Rankings & Projections

What is the value in fantasy basketball category ranking

The value which we are using is the z-score value. Z-score is a statistical measurement used to determine how far a player's actual or projected performance deviates from the average performance of all players in the league. The Z-score is calculated as the difference between a player's statistical production and the mean production of all players in the league, divided by the standard deviation of the league's production.

The Z-score provides a standard way to compare a player's performance to the rest of the league, regardless of the overall level of production in the league. A positive Z-score indicates that a player's output is above average, while a negative Z-score indicates that a player's production is below average.

What is punting in fantasy basketball ranking

In fantasy basketball, "punting" refers to deliberately not focusing on a specific statistical category to gain an advantage in other categories. For example, if a fantasy manager decides to punt rebounds, they would intentionally draft players who are weak in that category but strong in others, such as points or assists. Punting is a more advanced strategy in fantasy basketball and is not recommended for beginners. Managers who choose to punt must understand the statistical categories to execute the strategy successfully.
