It's fantasy basketball mock draft season, and things are no different here at Yahoo Sports. Our team recently conducted a 12-team, nine-category head-to-head mock draft with other fantasy basketball analysts, and all the picks are in.
Team-by-team results are at the bottom of the article — but first, here are some interesting findings about the draft's results.: When you get the first pick of any fantasy basketball league, no matter the format, you follow in Raph's footsteps by selecting Nikola Jokic. Like any snake draft, the long, arduous wait for the second pick is brutal, but he did a great job on the turn, grabbing last year's breakout Lauri Markkanen and Fred VanVleet in the third.
: He made a conscious effort to get more scoring in the backend of the draft, with three of his last four being Bennedict Mathurin, RJ Barrett and Keldon Johnson. He already had five 20-points-per-game guys on his team before these picks, so addressing more rebounding and blocks would've been a better outcome.: He grabbed Luka Dončić and Desmond Bane at the top, but I'm digging what he did in the middle rounds to get steals and blocks without investing in a center.
He has a very balanced roster with a lot of potential for racking up a ton of steals and selecting Onyeka Okongwu gives him some sleeper potential in the latter rounds. Steven Adams is a serviceably cheap rebounder as well.: He executed a punt assists strategy well, so if he wants to be more competitive there, he'll have to trade or let go of one of his big men.: He compiled an impressive set of wings in the first four rounds, grabbing Jayson Tatum, Jimmy Butler and Scottie Barnes.
, but he assembled quite the block party. Jaren Jackson Jr. and Myles Turner, that's nasty. Plus, Tyrese Maxey. That's a helluva start through five rounds. Paul Reed is a fun sleeper outside of the top 120.: 31% of his roster is made up of Indiana Pacers. I like them, too, but that's too much sauce. He'll also get crushed in rebounds and turnovers, but that's what happens when you decide to punt categories!: Piva assembled a safe, high-floor squad of proven veterans.
