Edition 0 · published Oct 18, 10:15 PM ET. Built from Sleeper's per-game projections scored with league settings: each team's best legal six (PG/SG/SF/PF/C/UTIL) plus 25% of its top-3 bench, Out/IR excluded. Refreshes until Week 1 tips, then locks.
Number one with a bullet. 178.1 projected FP/G up top means everyone else is fighting for second, and they know it. Franchise guy: Giannis Antetokounmpo, projected for 39.5 FP/G. Everybody else here is a plus-one.
Projected best six: PG Darius Garland · SG Devin Booker · SF Cedric Coward · PF Giannis Antetokounmpo · C Ivica Zubac · UTIL Trae Young
Straight belt is legit. 178.6 projected FP/G from the best six is contender money, and Menji2004 is already practicing the trophy speech nobody asked for. The whole operation runs through Luka Dončić (42.0 proj FP/G). Jarrett Allen (23.4 proj FP/G) is the lineup hole the rest of the league will be aiming at.

Podium squad. TLINNN built a 175.0 FP/G starting six and is one hot week from being unbearable in the group chat. Jayson Tatum (35.6 proj FP/G) is doing the heavy lifting, and probably wondering what he did to deserve these teammates. Somebody explain why Kon Knueppel (26.1 proj FP/G) is in the starting six. We'll wait.
Projected best six: PG Stephon Castle · SG Austin Reaves · SF Kon Knueppel · PF Jayson Tatum · C Evan Mobley · UTIL Damian Lillard
Middle of the pack and loving it, apparently. DeRawk's starting six projects to 175.3 FP/G, the fantasy version of a gas station hot dog: it'll get you through, nobody's bragging. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (35.3 proj FP/G) is doing the heavy lifting, and probably wondering what he did to deserve these teammates. Weak link: Keyonte George at 25.2 proj FP/G is starting for this team. Starting. On purpose.

Joseb1317 built the fantasy equivalent of a 7-seed: 172.6 projected FP/G, real chance at a play-in, zero chance of scaring anybody. The whole operation runs through Jalen Johnson (36.3 proj FP/G). Day'Ron Sharpe (23.6 proj FP/G) is the lineup hole the rest of the league will be aiming at. Kristaps Porziņģis is listed Out, so the medical staff is doing some of the GM's job.
Projected best six: PG Derrick White · SG Brandon Miller · SF Lauri Markkanen · PF Jalen Johnson · C Day'Ron Sharpe · UTIL Jalen Brunson

CertifiedDelinquents lives in the land of 'fine.' 171.8 projected FP/G is a playoff team on paper. Paper doesn't win you anything, Cobbzz. The whole operation runs through Victor Wembanyama (39.6 proj FP/G). Weak link: RJ Barrett at 22.0 proj FP/G is starting for this team. Starting. On purpose. Average roster age: 29.4. This isn't a fantasy team, it's a pension fund, and LeBron James (41) is the chairman of the board.
Projected best six: PG Dylan Harper · SG RJ Barrett · SF Kawhi Leonard · PF LeBron James · C Victor Wembanyama · UTIL Stephen Curry
Somewhere between 'sleeper pick' and 'please stop.' 171.0 projected FP/G for Keper4. Guess which one the projections lean toward, keper4. Franchise guy: Alperen Şengün, projected for 32.0 FP/G.

SaucyySpider217 looked at this roster and hit 'confirm,' and that's on the record forever. 171.6 projected FP/G is below the line. Domantas Sabonis (34.2 proj FP/G) is doing the heavy lifting, and probably wondering what he did to deserve these teammates. Ty Jerome (23.2 proj FP/G) is the lineup hole the rest of the league will be aiming at. Average roster age: 30.2. This isn't a fantasy team, it's a pension fund, and James Harden (37) is the chairman of the board. Jusuf Nurkić is listed Out, so the medical staff is doing some of the GM's job.
