Opinions on players in fantasy basketball are often created by expectations. If a player performs better than he was projected to, then their praises are shouted from the mountaintops, like Myles Turner and C.J. McCollum.
On the flip side, if a player fails to produce at a certain level, they are quickly assigned the dreaded “bust” label. For example, owners who drafted Nikola Vucevic in the fourth round are probably staring daggers in the direction of Orlando, Florida right about now.
However, so much of this kind of analysis hinges on draft position that it can sometimes distract from a true evaluation.
