Amidst watching too much basketball due to the ongoing EuroBasket tournament, scouting all the NBA depth charts, figuring player usage, minutes and opportunity, reflecting upon my previous mistakes, correcting projections in the yearly review article, and going on a one-month spiritual journey to the Himalayas in order to determine who the hell the Spurs will start this season, I am proud to present you, for the sixth year in a row, my 2022-23 top 155 projections for roto!
As always, note that each player’s value presented is their per-game value, so some players will be higher than the position I would draft them. Injury risk, games played and personal preference are not included, so use them as a baseline for your drafts, but do rearrange them based on your preferences and willingness to risk. If you are interested in finding out the method used to calculate the player values, check this previous article of mine. A good example of this is Kawhi Leonard, who I have ranked at no 8 but, with him probably missing all back-to-back games and the fact he missed the entire season, I wouldn’t reach for him that high. But he is a per-game monster and this is reflected in his ranking. Without further ado, let’s check the projections before I mention some notable players.

Notable Players
Nikola Jokic: In my mind and in my projections (and the numbers never lie), Jokic is far ahead from any other option that you can have at no 2. This is a good season to get lucky and land the first pick, as it will grant you a big advantage from the start.
Kyrie Irving: There is risk in picking him this high but, if he stays healthy and stays commited, he can be a beast on this Nets squad. But that’s two big ifs and one big risk.
Kristaps Porzingis: I am very high on Porzingis this year and I think he can become dominant again in Washington, barring the usual injury concerns.
Anthony Edwards: I was cautious in my projections for him compared to the industry last year and it paid off (I predicted his exact fg/a at 17.3). I think he continues his improvement but will still be outside the top 30 in my book.
Brandon Clarke: I can understand the surprise to see him this high but Jaren Jackson will start the season injured and Clarke’s game is as fantasy-friendly as they come. Could be a game changer for the first half of the season.
Lauri Markkanen: I love taking Lauri this year as I think that there are only two outcomes after his trade to Utah. Either they think he can be part of their future so they play him or they think he is not so they play him to increase his trade value. Both options equal fantasy goodness. Besides, the move back to the power forward position will surely help his stats.
Zion Williamson: I’m a bit lower than most on Zion, as I think he will need some time to shake off the rust off after such a long period of inactivity ( and food binging, but I can relate).
PJ Washington: Another target of mine in most drafts, as I think the increased minutes and usage from the absence of Miles Bridges will elevate his game and value.
Josh Giddey: He is currently ranked 54th in Yahoo rankings which is just absurd. He can and will improve from last season but those percentages can’t get him that high in my projections.
The Spurs conundrum: I have included Jakob Poeltl, Devin Vassell, Keldon Johnson and Tre Jones (barely). I think they might play their veterans in the first portion of the season but gradually start giving the younger guys and even the rookies more minutes. It’s a situation to monitor and it’s possible a young guy from their roster becomes fantasy relevant eventually, but I’m not drafting them to see them warming the bench at the start of the season.
I will gladly discuss those notable players and any of the projections with you fine folks in the comments down below. Let me know who you are targeting or avoiding in fantasy drafts, what punt build you have in mind and any other fantasy related questions. Also thank you for the uplifting words on the previous articles and I sincerely hope the projections help you conquer your fantasy leagues once again.
