Top 100 Fantasy Players on New NBA Teams + Offseason Winners & Losers

The NBA offseason has witnessed significant player movement, prompting discussions about the biggest winners and losers. Kevin Durant tops the list of players changing teams, now with the Houston Rockets. At age 37, concerns linger about his longevity, but his usage and minutes should remain high. Desmond Bane's trade to the Orlando Magic positions him alongside Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner, which complicates his fantasy potential. John Collins has moved to the Utah Jazz, raising questions about his usage rate alongside other stars like Kawhi Leonard and James Harden. Meanwhile, Jordan Poole's transition to the New Orleans Pelicans offers him more playing time but with uncertain usage dynamics. Mark Williams, now in Phoenix, is expected to bet on a starter role, potentially maintaining his impressive stats from last season.

The discussion also covers impact players like Bradley Beal and Deandre Ayton, who are set to fill key roles with the Clippers and Lakers, respectively. Lillard's situation in Portland remains ambiguous, with speculation about potential trades. As the season approaches, analysts emphasize the vital importance of understanding the new dynamics and pecking orders within teams to maximize fantasy value. The anticipated return of Basketball Monster's projections promises to aid fantasy players in navigating these changes effectively.
