Top 200 Rankings: Fantasy Basketball Head-to-Head (9-Category)

Top 200 fantasy basketball rankings for head-to-head 9 category (9-cat) league formats and the 2020-2021 NBA season. Use these rankings for your fantasy drafts.

Welcome back, RotoBallers! The NBA season is rapidly approaching, and here at RotoBaller HQ our awesome team of writers is cranking out lots of great preseason fantasy basketball analysis articles to get you ready for the season, including our 2020-2021 fantasy basketball rankings.

For those of you getting ready to draft your teams, below you'll find our top 200 overall tiered rankings for head-to-head 9-category leagues. If you're new to fantasy basketball, this league type matches owners up in head-to-head matchups every week, with owners attempting to win in as many of the nine categories as possible. These categories usually are points, rebounds, assists, steals, rebounds, three-pointers made, field goal percentage, free throw percentage, and turnovers.

In case you missed it, you can also find our other preseason draft analysis including various fantasy basketball draft sleepers and many other articles on risers, fallers, value picks and players to avoid. Feel free to hit us on Twitter up at @RotoBallerNBA for any questions, and be sure to follow all of our and fantasy basketball player news to help crush your drafts and dominate your leagues all season long. Good luck RotoBallers!
