Analyzing the #1 Fantasy Basketball Player

With the basketball season about to start, many fantasy basketball leagues have begun to form. Some are in the midst of drafting as we speak. If yours is coming up, I hope you should be lucky enough to end up with a top pick. If you are, there are some great options this year.

On the other hand, deciding who to go with at number one might be a bit of a challenge. Who to pick really depends on your needs, but let’s take a look at the possibilities.

If you’re into the idea of getting an elite point guard, you’ll have to look no further than Chris Paul. No basketball player has been more effective than Paul during the last two years.

People love Paul’s exceptional stats, especially when it comes to his assists and his defense. There’s truly no one better in either area, and these stats will surely anchor a team in the assists and steals departments.

While Paul is a great option without a doubt, many will be tempted by the idea of having LeBron James on their fantasy team. They have every reason to be tempted. James is arguably as valuable as Paul, as he contributes just about everywhere, especially when it comes to assists.

LeBron can also score points as well as anyone in the league, and even shoots a number of threes. This is generally hard to get from someone at the forward position, especially considering the fact that he blocks shots too.

Next on the list of possibilities is Kobe Bryant, a personal favorite of many NBA fans. Bryant’s stats are similar to LeBron’s, only he has less turnovers and a better free throw percentage, giving him a more well rounded appeal.

While most will go with either Paul or James, it’s really a matter of personal preference. Anyone you choose at number one is sure you put some great stats up for your team. Good luck with your draft, and I hope you end up with that number one pick.
