It\u2019s been a tough go of it for fantasy basketball managers trying to navigate an unusually high amount of injuries early on. But with that comes plenty of value from players having to step up into bigger roles.<\/p>\n<p>For Yahoo High Score leagues, it\u2019s still about the stars (and always a few surprising names) in the perfect lineup week-to-week. Let\u2019s go over the top performances from Week 2.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/https:\/\/d29szjachogqwa.cloudfront.net\/images\/user-uploaded\/sm-high-score-perfect-lineup-week2_2630.j.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"531\" height=\"664\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Week 2 High Score perfect lineup. (Amy Monks)<\/p>\n<p>More on the top performers<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/player\/1629029\/luka-doncic\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Luka Don\u010di\u0107<\/a>: Don\u010di\u0107 did that thing again. The thing where he waits until Sunday to pop off and lift your squad to a victory. Last week, Don\u010di\u0107 used an 86-point fantasy performance to lift your team to end the week. In Week 2, he raised the stakes with 90 points to top all scorers, posting a 45-15-6 line with 5 steals and 1 block in 35 minutes in a win over Toronto. Managers who snagged Luka should be toward the top of the standings all season.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/player\/1642843\/cooper-flagg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cooper Flagg<\/a>: Can you even call a season a breakout when it was this obvious? Flagg was a first-round asset in drafts and is already paying dividends for managers who took on the small, small amount of risk. He\u2019s leading an improved Mavericks team that enters Week 3 4-2 on the season, averaging 26.8 points, six rebounds and 6.6 assists while posting elite stocks (3.8). Flagg had his best performance of the young season against the Heat, scoring 29 points with 11 assists, 6 rebounds and 8 stocks. Just wait until the triple-doubles start to come.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/player\/1641705\/victor-wembanyama\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Victor Wembanyama<\/a>: After a slow start (by his standards), Wembanyama is beginning to consistently reach his ceiling for fantasy. He posted back-to-back games with 75-plus fantasy points, including a 79-point gem on Halloween. The 43 points was the second highest total of his young career, the Spurs big also added 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 7 stocks in a win over the Timberwolves. Imagine if Wembanyama had gone for a higher rebound total? His ceiling remains astonishing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/player\/1630578\/alperen-sengun\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Alperen Sengun<\/a>: This is the beauty of High Score: even when a player misses games, he can still bring you home. The Rockets big spent most of last week on the mend while dealing with a sore back. Fortunately for managers, he started the week with 29 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists and 7 stocks for 77 fantasy points in a win over the Hawks. Durability may be an issue but Sengun possesses one of the better ceilings in fantasy basketball.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/player\/203507\/giannis-antetokounmpo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Giannis Antetokounmpo<\/a>: The new-look Heat got off to a slow start in the Antetokounmpo era with four straight losses, but bounced back in Week 2 with back-to-back wins to close things out. Antetokounmpo remains the focal point with a usage rate just over 30% of the season. He should contend for runner-up in the scoring race (Don\u010di\u0107 is running away with it right now). Antetokounmpo ended Week 2 with a 31-18-10 triple-double to take down the Pacers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/player\/1642847\/jeremiah-fears\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jeremiah Fears<\/a>: There\u2019s almost always one outlier in this story each week. In Week 2, it\u2019s Fears, who went from a High Score of 24 points to 74, which has to be one of the biggest jumps in the history of this game. He put up 22 points, 8 rebounds, 13 assists and 6 stocks in just 29 minutes in the win over Sacramento. Dejounte Murray missed the game for the birth of his child, which put Fears into a more prominent role. That won\u2019t always be the case, but we know what Fears\u2019 ceiling can be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Luka Don\u010di\u0107 put up a season-high 90 High Score points in Sunday\u2019s win against the Raptors.
