ALL ACCESS - 2024 NBA Draft Big Board (January 25, 2024)

Added 2024-01-25 15:13:08 +0000 UTC

After previewing my big board in December, I'm back with an update. My top 30 prospects for the 2024 NBA Draft and it is LOADED with advanced stats and fantasy projections.

A few important notes:

* I've placed the players into tiers based on their expected draft capital. It matters (A LOT) where a player is drafted in the draft order to determine what kind of opportunities, minutes, and role the prospect likely gets in the NBA. So while Zach Edey has the best per-possession fantasy stat set in this class, when he's drafted and what kind of minutes he gets in the NBA will be a huge determining factor in his ultimate rank on my board.

* Players are placed in tiers based on how the big media draft boards view these prospects' draft stock at the moment. They are then ranked within that tier based on their fantasy stat sets and their ages.

* The fantasy points projections are based on 1) the prospects' current per-70 possession statistics this season and 2) the "official" NBA fantasy scoring system and the Sleeper default scoring system. These are meant to be rough projections of what the prospects' fantasy points production could look like in the NBA if they got starters' minutes.

Let me know if you have any questions in the comments below. This is a draft where I'd be fine trading back in a round to try to acquire additional assets because I think we are going to be able to pick off the prospects we like throughout rookie drafts while most managers just go by the real-life draft order. "Bad" drafts make it harder to find the real talent - but the method I use here has been proven going back a decade to find fantasy talent.
