| Notes | ||
| Ayton's 2025 projections still peg him as more of a complementary piece than a centerpiece. His efficiency (57% FG) and double-double potential keep him fantasy-relevant, though his muted shot-blocking and lack of range limit ceiling. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros | Claxton's 2024 campaign confirmed his elite shot-blocking and rebounding ability, though Brooklyn's offense limited his scoring ceiling. His minutes projection for 2025 is strong, making him one of the safer anchors for FG% and defensive stats in the middle rounds. With durability improving, he's a riser who fits perfectly on punt-FT% builds. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros | |
