With NBA training camps and preseason exhibitions in full swing, we’re inching closer everyday to tip-off of the 2021-22 NBA season. Fantasy hoops managers know without having to be told that it’s time to start researching and locking down a winning strategy for draft season. There’s an overwhelming amount of data to extract ahead of tip-off, and we’ve got you covered with the sharpest and most compact basketball analysis you need to construct your own fantasy super team.
This year’s Draft Guide is stuffed with exclusive content, aimed at providing you the knowledge needed to get prime value in drafts and build championship-caliber rosters. We’re here to assist your team management from the opening tip-off to the last week of the regular season. Whether you’re looking for top sleepers, rankings, positional tiers, mock drafts, expert analysis or player profiles, we’re confident these are some of the sharpest fantasy basketball tools we’ve ever produced.
We’ve already previewed our 8-CAT PG Tiers, 8-CAT center rankings, 8-CAT small forward rankings, 8-CAT power forward rankings and identified some draft reach candidates from our Draft Guide. Today, we get a taste of the latest 8-CAT SG tiers for the 2021-22 season. The two-guard spot has proven to be one of the most crucial in fantasy hoops. Here, you’ll see several familiar names who can put the team on their back with 40 or 50-point games while also stuffing the rest of the stat sheet to provide massive 8-CAT scoring contributions. Check out who makes each SG tier:
2021-22 SHOOTING GUARD TIERS (8-CAT)
Tier 2
Tier 4
When assessing the landscape of fantasy shooting guards, you can’t go wrong with any of the four candidates in Tier 2. Zach LaVine, who finished second among all SGs last season with 27.4 points per game, will strive to elevate his offensive game to the next level with the help of Chicago’s revamped cast of supporting stars. Donovan Mitchell‘s ascent as one of the NBA’s premier guards figures to carry over from 20-21 to 21-22 and keep him as one of the most valuable assets on fantasy hoops rosters. Meanwhile in Tier 4, we have several less-proven stars with major breakout upside. Collin Sexton will look to take the reins of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ offense and build off a productive 20-21 season. Rookie SG Jalen Green also figures to play a big role in Houston, and it could be worth it for managers to take a flier on the rising star who will inevitably see major offensive volume on the court.
