Fantasy Basketball is full of multi-cat monsters and big-name stars — but the real edge often comes from the weirdos. Josh Lloyd breaks down players who cross the usual fantasy archetypes, excelling in category combinations almost nobody else does.

From blocks + assists specialists, to scorers who don’t tank percentages, these unique profiles can give you an edge in drafts and week-to-week matchups. Josh ranks the “weird” players into tiers, highlighting both stars and sneaky late-round steals that can swing your league.

Players discussed include Chet Holmgren, Domantas Sabonis, Zach LaVine, Bilal Coulibaly, Paolo Banchero, and more.

Master the art of finding hidden value and learn why every team needs at least one weirdo to dominate fantasy basketball.
