Every week, I'll give you suggestions for your upcoming fantasy basketball matchup by ranking the top 20 NBA players at each NBA position. Players are ranked and evaluated with a few factors in mind - recent performance trends, health issues, number of games for the upcoming week, and gut instinct. Of course, feel free to take all this with a grain of salt or add it into your thought process.
Please note that I understand that Kobe Bryant is one of the best players in the game right now. However, if the Black Mamba only has two games for the week and someone like Gerald Wallace has four, well, I'm going to rank Wallace higher than Bryant for the week. Understood? Good, let's check out the latest position rankings!
