Notes 
 Still somehow overlooked in real life and fantasy. Best to punt FT% if you're taking Giannis.
Michael Waterloo - FantasyPros
Prove-it year for Davis after being limited the last couple of years. Still a per-game beast but you don't know how many games you'll get from him.
Michael Waterloo - FantasyPros
 All Giannis Antetokounmpo did in 2012-2022 was average a career-high 29.9 PPG, with 11.6 RPG, and 5.8 APG, while shooting 55.3 percent from the field. Antetokounmpo even increased his free throw shooting for the third consecutive year to 72.2 percent. While his 29.8 percent 3P average puts him a spot below Jokic, his 2.5 combined blocks/steals per game futher solidifies his incredible nightly floor. Antetokounmpo led the league in fantasy points per game in both FanDuel and DraftKings scoring.
Mike Randle - FTN
I struggle with ranking Anthony Davis because he has only played 76 regular season games over the past two years. Still only 29 years old, he barely missed averaging a double-double with 23.2 PPG and 9.9 RPG. Davis adds even more production on FanDuel or DraftKings DFS scoring, bringing 3.5 steals/blocks per contest. He averaged 35.3 minutes per game, his highest in five seasons. However, Davis did see a drop in free-throw efficiency (71.3%, lowest in his career) and 3P marksmanship (18.6%). When Davis is healthy, he produces like a Top 10 fantasy option every, single, night.
