Fantasy Basketball Shooting Guard Tiers 2025-26

Tier 9

Luguentz Dort (SF)

Good: 3PM, TO | Average: STL, BLK, FT% | Bad: PTS, REB, AST, FG%

Luguentz Dort isn’t the most attractive fantasy player, as Oklahoma City’s stacked lineup often overshadows him. The Canadian is also extremely streaky, but he can give good two-way numbers when he’s hot.

Keon Ellis (PG)

Good: STL, BLK, TO | Average: 3PM, FG%, FT% | Bad: PTS, REB, AST

Keon Ellis is coming off his best season yet, but it will be difficult for him to replicate that given the Kings’ added depth. The 25-year-old has a 3-and-D skillset.

Gradey Dick (SF)

Good: FT% | Average: PTS, STL, 3PM, TO | Bad: FG%, REB, AST, BLK

Due to injuries, Gradey Dick was able to get more involved offensively. However, that’ll be more difficult with the arrival of Ingram. The 21-year-old can provide points and threes, but not much else.

Alex Caruso (PG, SF)

Good: STL, TO | Average: BLK, FT% | Bad: PTS, REB, AST, 3PM, FG%

Alex Caruso‘s playing time and production dropped in his first season with the Thunder. Injuries and team depth were the main factors that impacted his value. The guard’s calling card is his stocks.

Gary Trent Jr. (SF)

Good: TO, 3PM | Average: STL, FT% | Bad: REB, AST, PTS, BLK, FG%

The absence of Lillard means Gary Trent Jr. can get some extra playing time. He’ll be a key player in the bench rotation for his scoring, three-point shooting and steals.

Tier 10

Tre Johnson

Grayson Allen (PG, SF)

Max Christie (SF)

A.J. Green (PG)

Jeremiah Fears (PG)

Anthony Black (PG, SF)

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (SF)

Moses Moody (SF)

Buddy Hield (SF)

Isaiah Joe

Tier 11

Malik Beasley (SF)

Terry Rozier (PG)

Kris Dunn (PG)

Duncan Robinson (SF)

Luke Kennard (PG)

Sam Merrill (SF)

Terance Mann (SF)
