Fantasy Basketball: 5 Stars to Target Entering the 2022-23 Season

Season-long fantasy basketball is unique.

It's because if there's any league that might need to pare down its schedule, it's the NBA. Only 8 of the top-15 players that led the league in per-game scoring -- your stars -- played more than 65 total games last season. Guys take nights off due to back-to-back games, chronic ailments, or ice-cream headaches.

No other fantasy sport you'll play will have healthy players regularly out of the lineup.

As a result, the hardest picks in NBA season-long formats might be the stars. Depth will shuffle all season, but we have the best idea of who are going to be those players to lead the NBA in scoring averages.
