What is Damian Lillard’s fantasy basketball ranking in 9-category leagues entering the 2023-24 NBA season?

Milwaukee Bucks superstar point guard Damian Lillard

Ahead of the 2023-24 NBA season, Yahoo! Sports’ fantasy expert Dan Titus has Damian Lillard ranked as the eighth-best player in 9-category fantasy basketball leagues.

While Lillard’s scoring may drop off, playing alongside Bucks superstar forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, his playstyle is still well-suited for 9-cat leagues. This comes as his elite free-throw shooting and high volume 3-point shooting, along with his assists, offer massive value. Meanwhile, Lillard doesn’t hurt any statistical category outside of turnovers.

The biggest concern surrounding Lillard is his availability, as he only played 58 games for Portland last season. However, given that he is now playing for a contender, some of those concerns should be alleviated.

Last season, Lillard averaged a career-high 32.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.3 blocks, 3.3 turnovers and 4.2 3-pointers per game. He did so while shooting 46.3% and 91.4% at the line.
