2018-2019 NBA Fantasy Team: Stairway to Kevin

in #sports6 years ago

It’s time for some fantasy basketball!

Ok, it’s a little early, but I just finished up a draft for a new league I entered with some fellow writers over at the 94 Feet Report (94feetreport.com).

The league has 16 teams in it, 13 players each and is a dynasty league, which I’ve never done before. Here’s how it went down for your boy.

RoundPick No.Overall PickPlayer Selected
188Kevin Durant
2925LaMarcus Aldridge
3840Kyle Lowry
4957Nikola Vucevic
5872Harrison Barnes
6989JJ Redick
78104Darren Collison
89121Domantis Sabonis
98136TJ Warren
109153Rodney Hood
118168Trey Burke
129185Marcus Morris
138200Wayne Ellington

You might be wondering, how did Durant drop to 8th? Who went in front of him? Well here's a list of the top 16 picks.
  1. Giannis Antetokounmpo
  2. Anthony Davis
  3. Karl-Anthony Towns
  4. Nikola Jokic
  5. LeBron James
  6. James harden
  7. Steph Curry
  8. Kevin Durant
  9. Victor Oladipo
  10. Russell Westbrook
  11. Kawhi Leonard
  12. Damian Lillard
  13. Ben Simmons
  14. Joel Embiid
  15. Paul George
  16. Kyrie Irving

So how’d I do? I think my first five picks were solid, and I’m satisfied with Redick and Collison. I’m excited to see how Warren will play in a small-forward melting pot over in Phoenix, and I’m excited to see how much Sabonis improved in the off season for Indiana. Towards the end of the draft the player pool started to thin out, so my last few picks were definitely some flyers. I think Hood will do well now that he is a viable offensive option in Cleveland, but I’m not sold on Burke and his fit in New York.

Stay tuned for updates, as the league play starts October 16th. Also stay tuned for a breakdown of my other fantasy league!
