2026-27 points-league draft guide

Points-League Sleepers

Ten players going after the seventh round whose counting stats beat their ADP. These are the players several outlets agree on most.

  1. 1

    Jaime Jaquez Jr.

    PF/SF/SG · MIL

    15.4 PTS, 5.0 REB, 4.7 AST in 28.3 min; 18.2 / 5.5 / 5.5 in games with 30+ minutes

    The Heat-to-Bucks trade turns a sixth man into a starter on a rebuilding team. He drove to the rim 17.4 times a night last season, more than Jalen Johnson or Cooper Flagg. Points leagues reward exactly that: rebounds and assists piled on top of scoring, with no penalty for a thin three-point profile.

  2. 2

    Cedric Coward

    SF/SG · MEM

    Rookie: 13.6 PTS, 5.9 REB in 25.8 min · per 36: 19.0 PTS, 8.2 REB, 3.9 AST

    First-team All-Rookie, and now Ja Morant (Portland) and Jaren Jackson Jr. (Utah) are gone. Memphis has every reason to hand its young wings the ball, and his per-36 line is a top-80 points player if the minutes come.

    Counterpoint: Cam Spencer and Scotty Pippen Jr. are competing for the same backcourt minutes.

  3. 3

    Brandin Podziemski

    PG/SG · GSW

    82 games: 13.8 PTS, 5.1 REB, 3.7 AST · final 27 games: 17.5 / 6.2 / 4.1

    He finished last season like a starter, signed a $110M extension, and Golden State's core is old and banged up (Butler out until the new year). Four outlets independently flagged him as going too late, near pick 108.

  4. 4

    Immanuel Quickley

    PG/SG · TOR

    Yahoo ADP around 96

    Leaguewinner's projections put him well ahead of consensus, and RotoWire's guard preview expects Kawhi Leonard's arrival to squeeze him less than other Raptors. A starting point guard's assist volume at a ninth-round price.

    Counterpoint: Injury risk is the reason he is cheap.

    ADP #94Our projections #89Boogie Nights #91
  5. 5

    Ty Jerome

    PG/SG · MEM

    15 games with Memphis: 19.7 PTS, 5.7 AST, 47% FG, 42% 3PT

    With Morant gone, Fantrax now projects him as the Day 1 starting point guard and moved him from 122 to 90 in its rankings. His per-minute output is starter-level.

    Counterpoint: Memphis is rebuilding, so a late-season shutdown or rest days are a real risk.

    ADP #95Our projections #93Boogie Nights #91
  6. 6

    Caleb Wilson

    PF/SF · CHI

    UNC: 19.8 PTS, 9.4 REB, 1.5 STL, 1.4 BLK · Summer League: 23.5 PTS, 7.3 REB, 2.5 BLK

    The No. 4 pick should start at power forward with a big usage share. Fantasy managers worry about his 71% free throws and no threes, but points leagues barely punish those. ESPN projects 17.9 points and 8.1 rebounds.

    ADP #73Our projections #68Boogie Nights #68
  7. 7

    Ajay Mitchell

    PG/SG · OKC

    15.1 PTS per game in the 2026 playoffs

    Oklahoma City let Lu Dort, Aaron Wiggins and Isaiah Joe walk. Cason Wallace may start, but Mitchell is the higher-ceiling guard and finished 106th last year in about 26 minutes.

    ADP #182Our projections #113Boogie Nights #113
  8. 8

    Gui Santos

    GSW

    Projected 29.6 min · points rank 123 vs 148 consensus

    Jimmy Butler is out until the new year, Kristaps Porziņģis is out indefinitely and Moses Moody is rehabbing a torn patellar tendon. That leaves real forward minutes in Golden State for a cheap late flier.

  9. 9

    Anthony Black

    PG/SG · ORL

    Finished over 70% of his shots at the rim last season

    ESPN's Jim McCormick likes his growth as a playmaker and expects a better offensive scheme in Orlando to unlock him.

    ADP #162Our projections #134Boogie Nights #135
  10. 10

    Naz Reid

    PF/C · CHA

    68 to 81 games in each of the last six seasons

    The 2024 Sixth Man of the Year finally gets a starting job. He's an efficient scorer, a strong rebounder and a stretch big, and his durability is a quiet edge in a format that rewards games played.

    Counterpoint: Usage could be tight next to Coby White, Kon Knueppel and Brandon Miller.
