Welcome to the 2025 Fantasy Basketball Rankings. With Fantasy Basketball platforms like Yahoo Fantasy, now open for the 2025-26 NBA season, we are here to take a look at our pre-draft rankings! Whether you’ve been chomping at the bit to get back on the hardwood of fantasy basketball or just starting to turn the page into next season, we have you covered with draft rankings for points leagues and category leagues.
First, we’ll focus on draft rankings for 8-category leagues. In an 8-category fantasy basketball league, managers draft players and compete weekly in specific statistical categories like points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, 3-pointers, field goal %, and three-point %. The team that leads in the most categories wins the matchup.
