  • DEN Shooting Guard #16

    Walker spent the last season with Maccabi Tel Aviv in the EuroLeague. Prior to that, he spent seven seasons in the NBA. Walker 12.4 points and 23.4 minutes per game in 2024-25 with the Sixers. He’ll earn the veteran minimum with the Nuggets.
  • PHX Guard-Forward #3
    Brooks only played 56 games last year, breaking a streak of three consecutive seasons with at least 72 games played. Still, Brooks averaged a career-high 20.2 points per game in his first year in Phoenix. That seems to have made an impression as the Suns decided to lock up the 30-year-old guard for the foreseeable future. With the team bringing in Miles Bridges and Luke Kennard this offseason, it could be tough to repeat the usage that led to his career-high scoring.
  • FA Guard #4
    Davison signed a standard contract with the Rockets last season after starting the year on a two-way deal. He averaged 7.8 minutes in 28 appearances for the Rockets.
  • PHI Forward #23
    While Tyrese Maxey will continue to take on a prominent playmaking role for the 76ers, LeBron’s arrival gives the team another option to trust in that regard. “He is an offense creator,” Nurse said, according to NBC Sports Philadelphia. “He is certainly a guy that will bring the ball up the floor and try to create for himself and others. He is really good for others.” After averaging at least eight assists each of the prior two seasons, James’ average dipped slightly to 7.2 per game in 2025-26. With the offensive weapons in Philadelphia’s starting lineup, he could experience an increase in that category next season, which should help his fantasy value.
  • LAC Guard #24
    The 32nd overall pick in the 2023 draft, Pickett spent his first three NBA seasons with the Nuggets. In 126 appearances over three seasons, the 6-foot-2 guard averaged 4.0 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 0.8 three-pointers in 12.7 minutes per game. Given the options at point guard on the Clippers’ roster who currently hold standard contracts, Pickett’s chances of impacting fantasy basketball next season are slim.
  • FA Guard #50
    The 15th overall pick in the 2020 draft, Anthony spent his first five seasons in Orlando before moving to Milwaukee ahead of the 2025-26 campaign. The 6-foot-2 guard appeared in 35 games for the Bucks before being traded to Phoenix at the February deadline, with the Suns waiving him at the end of the month. Anthony’s move to Australia won’t affect redraft leagues, but dynasty league managers rostering him can afford to move on.
  • TOR Guard #44
    The 36th overall pick in the 2023 draft, Jackson spent his first three NBA seasons in Milwaukee. While there were occasional moments when his athleticism was on display, the former UConn wing could not lock down consistent rotation minutes with the Bucks. In Toronto, he’ll compete for one of the team’s final roster spots when training camp opens in late September.
  • NYK Forward #51
    Diawara, who had his moments during the 2025-26 regular season before falling out of the rotation for the team’s title run, injured his left ring finger during Summer League. While he did need to undergo surgery, the wing has already returned to the court and is expected to be fully ready when the Knicks open training camp in late September. There should once again be opportunities for Diawara to contribute during the regular season, but he is not a player to select in redraft leagues.
  • TOR Center #50
    Jemison has played for five different NBA teams in his three seasons, most recently spending the 2025-26 campaign with the Knicks on a two-way deal. The 6-foot-11 center appeared in 13 NBA games for the champs, averaging 6.3 minutes per game. While Toronto has experienced success in using its G League affiliate to develop players, Jemison is unlikely to be in a position to impact fantasy basketball next season.
  • NYK Guard-Forward
    Selected with the 47th overall pick in June’s draft, Nickel was arguably the Knicks’ best performer at Summer League in Las Vegas. However, a recent lawsuit ruling that now allows players to play five seasons of college basketball may have opened the door for a return to campus. Nickel, who entered his name into the transfer portal in April, is said to be considering the possibility of playing another season of college basketball. According to the Nashville Post, his NIL valuation ranges from $1-1.4 million, likely more money than Nickel would make if he were to agree to a deal with the Knicks. If he does return to college, the Knicks would retain Nickel’s draft rights.
