Common questions

Who is better in fantasy basketball, Ayo Dosunmu or Malik Monk?

Ayo Dosunmu is the better 9-cat player this season, by 3.46 of total value. He takes 5 of the nine categories, gaining most in Steals and Field goal percentage, and gives ground in Turnovers and Blocks.

How is the comparison calculated?

Per-game projections for 2026-27 converted to z-scores against the draftable pool, one per category, then totalled. A positive z means above the pool average in that category. No editorial judgement is applied.

Does this hold for points leagues?

Not necessarily. This page is 9-cat. Points leagues ignore the percentage categories and treat turnovers differently, which usually favours high-usage scorers. Switch format on the rankings page to see the other view.

What about injuries and minutes?

Projections already carry an expected minutes load, but they cannot price a player who is ruled out. Current status is shown beside each name, so check it before acting.
