2024-25 NBA Draft Guide: Punt Build Rankings

By Keston Paul Published September 16, 2024 Updated August 19, 2025 1 min read

The table that will be provided is fairly easy to use. The player names and their 9-cat per-game rankings are fixed so that you can scroll and easily compare their pure 9-cat ranking and the punt ranking. The change due to a punt and then the actual ranking in that punt are grouped by alternating color schemes.

As you can see below, Anfernee Simons goes from 93 in 9-cat to 65 in a punt steals build thanks to a +28 increase.

The Punt1 to Punt9 are not an indication of preference, they are just labels. You can sort by any of the columns you desire including a couple of final columns which show the average rank and average change of a player throughout all of the punts.
