2024-25 NBA Draft Guide: Dr. A’s ‘My Guys’

Last Updated on August 25, 2026 9:42 am by André Lemos | Published: October 10, 2024

Welcome to my 2024-25 Official ‘My Guys’ Column. This is not an end-all, be-all list. It’s simply guys I feel good about this season and the rounds I would like to get them in, based on current ADP (Average Draft Position) information. I may reach a round early for any of these guys, based on how much I like them and if I think they’ll get back to me. But this is a general look at fantasy players I think are going to put up fun numbers and help teams win, regardless of the intricate details of each league. Of course, those details are important, especially if your league uses weird ones, or if it’s 9-cat vs. 8-cat, vs. Roto vs. Points, so don’t just ignore the specifics of your league when drafting.

I have found that I much prefer drafting early in Round 1, as in a Top-4 pick, or I’d just rather have the 11th or 12th pick in 12-team drafts. This list is based on 12-teamers, so adjust accordingly if you’re in a bigger or smaller league. Without further ado, here we go.
