2022-23 Updated Fantasy Basketball Rankings

We officially passed the first quarter mark of the NBA season last week which means it’s time to update the Fantasy Basketball rankings! Rosters have changed throughout the season due to injuries, and players now becoming household names such as Lauri Markkanen who made a massive jump into the top-25. Anthony Davis was a popular fade in preseason but we at Fantrax can no longer ignore his dominant play! Lately, there hasn’t been a whole lot of commotion surrounding the no.1 overall pick. It’s been Nikola Jokic and move on but Stephen Curry is back to retake his claim as the best player in Fantasy Basketball. It’s time to check out the rest of the rankings below with our Fantrax crew. With the trade deadline in the future, our analysts here at Fantrax will continue to update our season ranks and get you prepared to win your Fantasy Championships! Let’s get the discussions going folks!

Fantasy Basketball Rankings Breakdown

Stephen Curry takes back his crown from Fantasy MVP Nikola Jokic for the number-one spot in the latest updated ranks.  As long as Curry keeps splashing away, he may just win another MVP trophy. Jayson Tatum continues to climb as he joins the top 3 with number one in his sights. Anthony Davis finds himself back in the top 10 after becoming the number-one player in fantasy over the past month just dominating everybody in sight. His injury risk continues to keep him out of the top 5.

Lauri Markkanen is the highest riser in our ranks going from 100-21. Quite the jump, but the Finnish star has become a fantasy monster taking over for Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert in Utah. Jalen Brunson has exceeded expectations in the Big Apple and has joined the top 30. Karl Anthony slides to the end of the fourth round just to his four-six week injury.

Number one overall pick Paolo Banchero climbed up the ranks with a strong summer league and is proving everyone right becoming a lock for rookie of the year this season. Jerami Grant continues to ball out in Portland and prove the doubters wrong. Grant is a value king in fantasy!

Keep an eye out for Josh Giddey who rounds out near the 1op-100. He is fresh off a top-25 performance on the week and is starting to heat up. Walker Kessler is finally starting to get minutes in Utah is someone to keep tabs on down the stretch!
