"The ESPN fantasy basketball experts got together for their second mock draft of the 2025-26 NBA season, using a 10-team head-to-head categories format. If you're new to fantasy hoops and looking to try it out for the first time, here is a tutorial of all the basics. From there, it's easy to grab a handful of people, set up a draft and have some fun! Before that, though, it's always smart to spend a little time preparing with a mock draft of your own."
"In category leagues, specialists who can contribute and dominate one stat such as steals or blocks or assists are more valuable than in points leagues. And players who struggle with FG% and FT% aren't as valuable as they can be in points leagues."
"The participants of our 10-team H2H categories mock were Andre Snellings, Eric Moody, Eric Karabell, Tom Carpenter, Joe Kaiser, Jim McCormick, Matt Williams and Steve Alexander, and joining us from Rotowire.com were Alex Barutha and Kirien Katzmarek."
ESPN fantasy basketball experts held a second mock draft for the 2025–26 NBA season using a 10-team head-to-head categories format. A tutorial is available for new fantasy players to learn basics and set up a league. Category-style formats increase the value of specialists who can dominate single stats like steals, blocks or assists, while players with weak FG% and FT% lose value relative to points leagues. The mock included experts from ESPN and Rotowire, listed by first-round pick order across 13 rounds. Team rosters were presented in first-round pick order for ten teams named by their drafters.
