Top five NBA fantasy point guards in 2020-21

In the first of a five-part series, we will take a look at the top five point guards in the NBA from a fantasy perspective, heading into the 2020-21 season. When selecting a point guard, it is very important to look at one particular statistic the most, and that is assists. However, you still cannot ignore points, either. The statistics used in this piece came from Yahoo! Sports and Basketball-Reference.

5) Trae Young–Atlanta Hawks-The centerpiece of a Hawks squad that is on the rise with the recent free agent signings of Bogdan Bogdanovic, Danilo Gallinari, and Rajon Rondo, Young averaged 29.6 points per game, 9.3 assists per game, and 4.3 rebounds per game. He also had a field goal percentage of .437, a three-point percentage of .361, and a free throw percentage of .860.

4) Luka Doncic–Dallas Mavericks-There is a lot to like about this 20-year-old Slovenian, who could be put in the same conversation with Dirk Nowitzki as the greatest Mavericks player of all-time when he is all done. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves just yet. Doncic averaged 28.8 points per game, 9.4 rebounds per game, and 8.8 assists per game in 2019-20, alongside a shooting percentage of .463, a three-point percentage of .316, and a free throw percentage of .758.

3) LeBron James–Los Angeles Lakers–You may not think of LeBron James as a point guard, but at age 35, that is where he played the most last season. Considered one of the most versatile players in the game today, James averaged 25.3 points per game, 10.2 assists per game (led the NBA), and 7.8 rebounds per game in 2019-20. He also had a shooting percentage of .493, a three-point percentage of .348, and a free throw percentage of .693.

2) Damian Lillard–Portland Trail BlazersThe five-time all-star had a career year in 2019-20, as he averaged a career-high 30 points per game. Lillard also averaged a career-high in assists with eight, and had 4.3 rebounds per game. A workhorse known for his endurance, Lillard led the NBA with 37.5 minutes per game. He also had a field goal percentage of .463, three-point percentage of .401, and free throw percentage of .888.



1) James Harden–Houston RocketsA member of the Rockets (at least for now), James Harden led the NBA for the third straight season in points per game (34.3). He also had 7.5 assists per game, 6.6 rebounds per game, a field goal percentage of .444, a three-point percentage of .355, and a free throw percentage of .865.
