I will be updating and refining these rankings throughout the offseason as news develops, so check back often for player movement and draft position.  Please see FBD Fantasy Points Scoring and Ranking System for a clear explanation of a player’s FPS ranking score. The latest updated rankings for each position can be accessed through the “2010-2011 Draft Rankings” tab at the top of the FantasyBasketballDaily.com homepage.

Deron Williams (32.9 FPS, 51.5 eFG%, 80.1 FT%, 37 MPG)
2009:    18.7pts/10.5ast /4.0reb/1.3stl/.2blk/3.3tov

It’s a tough choice at the top of the PG board, but I’m going with Deron Williams.    He took 3.4 threes per game last season, hitting 37%.  His free throw rate was exceptional at 39.7, showing that he isn’t just a set jumpshooter and will attack when he gets the chance, even through contact.  His Jumper/Inside game breaks down to 69%/31%.    Probably the biggest knock on him this season is the loss of his pick and roll partner, Carlos Boozer.  Al Jefferson will try to fill the hole, but it is going to take some time to mesh with Williams, which may cause Williams’ turnovers to creep up a little from last year’s 3.3 a game.

Fantasy Basketball News and a New Favorite Bookmark (7/23/10)

Every once in awhile I run across a site offering something new in the world of fantasy sports.   If you are playing daily fantasy games, check out RotoGrinders.com.  Their site is a hub for daily fantasy players which includes fantasy player rankings and results from all the major daily sites, as well as some good strategy and discussion articles.    It’s a site you will certainly want to bookmark on your favorites list.    The site was created by the same guys who formed poker site PocketFives.com and applies some of the same ideas and concepts to the world of fantasy sports.    Give them a look and definitely get signed up to get ranked.

Betting On Fantasy Basketball: Daily Draft Fantasy Basketball Cash Games

I’ve been thinking this weekend about what direction to take the Fantasy Basketball Daily site in for the 2010 – 2011 NBA season.    Last year I split my fantasy basketball posting between Fantasy Basketball Daily and my other site, FantasySportsHandicapping.com.   FBD contained mostly link related posts while FSH contained original daily fantasy basketball content and fantasy picks, such as this post.

This season I will be moving the original daily fantasy content posts from the FSH site to the Fantasy Basketball Daily site.  I’ll still have some link related posts, but a majority of the posts at FBD are going to be original content geared toward daily fantasy basketball action, pregame reports and nightly fantasy picks.   After running the FantasySportsHandicapping.com site for awhile, it became apparent that trying to handle three major sports at the same time just wasn’t going to be possible (at least not without a divorce and childcare).   At this point, I’ve cut back on baseball and football and decided to focus strictly on basketball since it is the sport I like the most.

Friday Afternoon Fantasy Quick Hits (7/16/10)

Free agent signings and trades are slowing to a trickle this week.   I’m planning on getting some early fantasy draft rankings up next week, so be on the lookout for them.  Have a good weekend.

Ronnie Brewer – Signed with Chicago, 3 years, $12.5 million.  I think this is a great signing for the Bulls.  Brewer is a good player who can help you in just about every category.  He will probably be available very late in drafts, so plan on giving him a spot on your roster in the last couple of rounds.
