Five safest targets for 2025 fantasy basketball anchor rosters: Jokic dominates across points, rebounds, assists, and efficiency with exceptional durability. Edwards delivers high-volume scoring and multi-category impact. Sabonis posts consistent double-doubles with solid efficiency. Derrick White provides reliable multi-category production in a reshaped Boston lineup. Coby White offers a high floor and solid three-point volume in Chicago. These safe bets form a strong foundation.

Brown reshapes the Knicks around Karl-Anthony Towns, aiming to replicate Sacramento’s Sabonis–Fox pace while leveraging Towns’ shooting and IQ. Towns moves between five and four, thrives in elbows and corners, and becomes a true offensive hub. If the spacing and decision-making clicks, New York could unlock Towns’ ceiling and elevate the team’s fantasy upside.

Last season Towns posted 24.4 points, 12.8 rebounds, 3.1 assists with 42% from deep. The plan is to keep him engaged with constant movement and playmaking, not static post-ups. If the off-ball action translates, Towns becomes a core catalyst for both real-world success and fantasy production.

Defense and frontcourt balance remain the big questions, but the blueprint is clear: Towns as a versatile engine, supported by Hart’s energy and Robinson’s rim protection to fuel a fast, efficient Knicks attack.
