| Notes | ||
| Ball projects for a strong bounce-back in 2025 after injuries limited him to just 47 games in 2024. His scoring (1,184 to 1,709 points) and assists (347 to 520) are projected to rise sharply with improved health and heavier minutes (1,505 to 2,374). The jump in threes (179 to 265) reinforces his elite fantasy guard profile. He carries some durability risk, but the upside makes him a clear riser at his draft cost. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros | 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 | |
