Victor Wembanyama is the only player in the league averaging at least 24 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks per game.<\/p>\n
Alright, we\u2019re at the NBA All-Star break and it\u2019s time to talk about the players who\u2019ve been coming through for fantasy basketball teams this year. Not the guys you thought would be good \u2014 the guys who are good.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m putting together my Fantasy All-Star team based purely on production through Feb. 11, with the starting five coming from some of the best few rounds and the reserves being a compilation of value picks who have delivered through 17 weeks.<\/p>\n
The Starting Five SGA went top-three in basically every draft and he\u2019s somehow exceeded even those expectations. He appears most often on the top-500 Public League teams (29%) \u2014 a clear indication he\u2019s one of the most profitable fantasy assets yet again. Averaging 30 a game has become routine and he\u2019s still getting 6.4 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 2.1 stocks while shooting 55% from the field. Beast.<\/p>\n Guard: Tyrese Maxey, PHI<\/a><\/p>\n Maxey has carried the Sixers for much of the season by putting up career numbers in points, assists, stocks, rebounds and FT%. He\u2019s been a top-six option in High Score and a top-three asset in 9-cat and points leagues. Maxey is right behind SGA in appearing on the best teams in fantasy basketball at 26.6%.<\/p>\n Forward: Victor Wembanyama, SAS<\/a><\/p>\n Wemby hasn\u2019t put up the video game numbers at the same rate as last season, but the production is still elite. At just 22, he\u2019s the only player in the league averaging at least 24 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks per game. He\u2019s a fantasy cheat code who is only bested by less than a handful of players.<\/p>\n Forward: Jalen Johnson, ATL<\/a><\/p>\n One of the early steals of draft season. Johnson\u2019s ADP was around pick No. 25 in the preseason, yet he\u2019s performing as a top-15 player in 9-cat formats and a top-five player in High Score and points leagues. Trading away Trae Young<\/a> was great for his fantasy value, as Johnson\u2019s point-forward skillset was subsequently unleashed. With 10 triple-doubles on the year, fantasy managers can expect many more in the second half of the season.<\/p>\n Center: Nikola Joki\u0107, DEN<\/a><\/p>\n Yes, the Joker missed 16 games, but he\u2019s still far and away the best player in fantasy. He\u2019s averaging 69 fantasy points per game in High Score and is averaging a triple-double for the second year in a row. And it\u2019s not just those key counting stats \u2014 he\u2019s uber-efficient and still racking up steals. It\u2019s hard to imagine a world where Joki\u0107 is not worthy of a consensus No. 1 pick.<\/p>\n Honorable mentions: Jamal Murray<\/a>, Jaylen Brown<\/a>, Scottie Barnes<\/a><\/p>\n The Reserves NAW\u2019s glow up has been crazy. With an ADP outside of 120, he\u2019s been one of the Most Improved Players in the league. He actually went undrafted in 67% of drafts, and he ranks in the top 75 in High Score and points leagues while being top 50 in 9-cat. Like Johnson, he\u2019s also benefiting from Young getting traded to Washington.<\/p>\n Guard: Keyonte George, UTA<\/a><\/p>\n George was going around pick No. 113 overall in drafts. He\u2019s now putting up 23.8 points, 3.9 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 1.1 steals per night. Unfortunately, George is dealing with an ankle injury.\u00a0However, I\u2019m holding off moving him, as I think he\u2019ll be less rested than some of his other veteran teammates.<\/p>\n Forward: Kon Knueppel, CHA<\/a><\/p>\n The rookie went fourth overall in the real draft but went undrafted in 81% of Yahoo fantasy leagues. Congratulations if you landed Knueppel, because he has league winner written all over him. Now he\u2019s averaging 18.9 points on 48\/43\/90 shooting splits. He\u2019s also putting in work as a rebounder and playmaker. He\u2019s already hit 183 3-pointers and is on pace to break the rookie record by a mile. Charlotte\u2019s fun again, which is wild to say and Knueppel\u2019s a huge reason why. It\u2019ll be a tight Rookie of the Year race between him and former Duke teammate, Mavericks G\/F Cooper Flagg<\/a>.<\/p>\n Forward: Kawhi Leonard, LAC<\/a><\/p>\n Kawhi was going super late relative to his current value because nobody trusts his knees anymore. Fair! But aspiration drama aside, Leonard\u2019s been available, playing in 41 games so far. Leonard is on a heater, absolutely torching opponents for 27.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 2.1 steals per game. The Clippers could manage his minutes now that they had a fire sale at the deadline, but still, it feels like now is a good time to sell high on Kawhi.<\/p>\n Center: Alperen Sengun, HOU<\/a><\/p>\n Sengun was a bit of a settle pick here; I was between him and Jalen Duren<\/a> and Sengun\u2019s numbers are just better. He has some warts for 9-cat, but the raw production, along with his commitment to playing better defense, is paying off for fantasy managers in High Score and points leagues.<\/p>\n Honorable mentions: Deni Avdija<\/a>, Trey Murphy III<\/a> and Michael Porter Jr.<\/a><\/p>\n Who else do you think is worth adding to the Fantasy All-Star team for the 2025-26 season?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Victor Wembanyama is the only player in the league averaging at least 24 points, 11 rebounds and 2…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":478050,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[557],"tags":[64,63,590,243138,85],"class_list":["post-478049","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nba","tag-nba-fantasy-2025-26-all-stars","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/478049","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=478049"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/478049\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/478050"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=478049"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=478049"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=478049"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
