FSAN 2026 Fantasy Basketball Draft (10-Team, ESPN, H2H Points)
Fantasy basketball season is finally here and the drafts are officially in the books! Join Bryan Joiner and Ben Clarke on the Full Court Press Podcast as they break down their latest 10-team fantasy rosters in the newly created FSAN league and share early season impressions. Whether you are looking for draft steals or injury risk warnings, we have got you covered with a deep dive into every round of the draft.
In this episode, we analyze the first seven rounds of our most recent draft, discussing our thought processes as each pick progresses. We explore the logic behind taking high-upside players early and why some veterans like Domantas Sabonis might be risky picks this year given potential trade rumors. The guys also debate the value of guards like Tyrese Maxey falling to the late second round and whether certain breakout candidates are being drafted way too high based on their average draft position.
We also take a look at the late-round gems and the impact of early-season injuries on roster construction. From the versatility of players like Naz Reid to the defensive potential of young talents like Amen Thompson, we break down which players are poised to outperform their projections. Stick around until the end to hear our thoughts on the waiver wire and how to manage your team through the first few weeks of NBA action as we look for those early season league winners.

2026 Do Not Draft List
Winning your fantasy basketball league is about more than just who you pick; it is about knowing who to avoid. Bryan Joiner and Ben Clarke break down their official Do Not Draft list for the upcoming 2026 fantasy basketball season to help you avoid the pitfalls of high average draft position players who might not perform as hoped for.
In this episode of the Full Court Press Podcast, we dive deep into the players whose current average draft position simply does not match their projected value. We cover everything from injury-prone stars like Anthony Davis to high-volume scorers like Anthony Edwards who might not provide the category depth you need. Whether it is concerns about new team dynamics or historical efficiency issues, we are giving you the red flags you need to watch out for before you click that draft button.
We also check in on preseason standouts like Kel'el Ware and Cam Boozer and discuss why certain rookies might be safer bets in the later rounds. From the Knicks depth chart to the changing landscape in Charlotte, we analyze the situations that could make or break your fantasy season. We debate the value of players like Jalen Williams and Bam Adebayo, offering insights into why their high draft costs might be too risky for your roster construction.
