Below are our 2023 NBA Playoff Best Ball and rankings. Currently these rankings are live while the regular season is ongoing. Due to this, there will be shifts based on the performance of the teams and changes to the standings. The standings and playoff projections will be changing as the regular season comes to a close, and rankings will be adjusted accordingly, particularly for those teams making the play-in tournament, moving up into the top 6 (and avoiding the play-in), or those falling down to the play-in or out of the playoffs altogether.
These rankings will be updated on an ad-hoc basis and finalized when we get the final playoff picture at the end of the regular season.
We also adjust our rankings for Average Draft Position (ADP), so that you are able to maximize the value of players that we have ranked above their ADP, as well as team stacks. Currently, we are utilizing ADP from both Underdog Fantasy tournaments.
