Now, let's look at the top centers for 2024-25 fantasy basketball.1) Victor Wembanyama, San Antonio SpursAge: 20Height: 7-4Weight: 210 lbs2023-24 Review:Victor Wembanyama caught the NBA by storm in his rookie season, playing up to the high expectations surrounding his debut. The 7-foot-4 sensation wowed with his all-around game, earning Rookie of the Year and finishing second in Defensive Player of the Year voting. He averaged 21.4 points, 10.6 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.2 steals, 3.6 blocks, and 1.8 3-pointers in 71 games. Wemby's remarkable combination of size, skill, and athleticism enabled him to dominate both ends of the floor.What’s Changed:The Spurs made no significant adjustments to their center rotation, so it's Wembanyama's turn once again. Chris Paul's acquisition as a point guard should aid Wemby by providing more possibilities for easy shots and greater ball movement.Outlook:Wembanyama's rookie numbers are probably his floor, which is worrisome for the rest of the league. In category leagues, he is often regarded as the top pick, competing with Nikola Jokic for first place. Injuries are the only potential impediment to his fantasy supremacy, but if he stays healthy, Wemby will be a key member of many championship-winning fantasy squads.2) Nikola Jokic, Denver NuggetsAge: 29Height: 6-11Weight: 284 lbs2023-24 Review:Nikola Jokic, the reigning MVP, had another amazing season, averaging 26.4 points, 12.4 rebounds, and 9.0 assists while remaining extremely efficient. Jokic continued to be a fantasy force, racking up 1.4 steals, 0.9 blocks, and 1.1 triples. Despite ranking third in fantasy value, Jokic is a triple-double machine and one of the league's most versatile players.What’s Changed:The Nuggets added Russell Westbrook as a backup playmaker, but Jokic's role has not changed. With little competition for frontcourt minutes, Jokic is primed for another successful season.Outlook:Jokic’s combination of scoring, rebounding, playmaking, and defense makes him a top 5 fantasy pick in all formats. His high floor and unmatched consistency ensure that he will be a key player for any fantasy manager.3) Anthony Davis, Los Angeles LakersAge: 31Height: 6-10Weight: 253 lbs2023-24 Review:Anthony Davis had a bounce-back season in 2023-24, playing a career-high 76 games and re-establishing himself as an elite fantasy player. He posted 24.7 points, 12.6 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.2 steals, and 2.3 blocks per game while maintaining his efficiency on both ends. Health had been a concern in the past, but AD proved his durability last season.What’s Changed:The Lakers didn’t make significant roster changes this offseason, which means Davis will continue to be a focal point in their offense. If JJ Redick can find new ways to maximize AD’s role, we could see a slight boost in his numbers.Outlook:While there are still concerns about his health, Davis remains a top-tier fantasy option. He’s likely to be drafted in the second half of the first round, but savvy managers will recognize his potential to finish as a top player in all formats.4) Joel Embiid, Philadelphia 76ersAge: 30Height: 7-0Weight: 280 lbs2023-24 Review:Joel Embiid was a dominant force in the first half of the season, averaging 35.0 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 6.0 assists in 25 games before Christmas. However, a knee injury sidelined him for a large portion of the second half, limiting him to 39 games. Despite his injury, Embiid remained one of the most impactful players in fantasy, posting elite per-game numbers in 8- and 9-cat formats.What’s Changed:Embiid had a strong showing at the Paris Olympics, where he helped Team USA win gold. He enters the 2024-25 season healthy and ready to reclaim his spot among the top centers in the league.Outlook:Health is always a concern with Embiid, but when he’s on the court, few players can match his production. He’s likely to go in the middle of the first round, and if he stays healthy, Embiid has the potential to be a league-winning pick.5) Chet Holmgren, Oklahoma City ThunderAge: 22Height: 7-1Weight: 195 lbs2023-24 Review:After missing his entire rookie season due to injury, Chet Holmgren made a triumphant return in 2023-24. He averaged 16.5 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks over 82 games, finishing second in Rookie of the Year voting. Holmgren’s combination of size, skill, and versatility made him a fantasy sleeper, and he delivered in a big way.What’s Changed:The Thunder added Isaiah Hartenstein in free agency, which could shift Holmgren to power forward. However, his minutes and role should remain consistent, and he will continue to be a valuable contributor in all categories.Outlook:Holmgren’s ability to block shots, score efficiently, and rebound makes him a high-upside pick in the second round of fantasy drafts. His position flexibility only adds to his value, and he should be a key part of any successful fantasy team.Catch All the Action on Song TV (송티비)As you get ready for the 2024-25 fantasy basketball season, don't forget to watch live NBA action on Song TV, where you can follow your favorite players like Victor Wembanyama, Nikola Jokic, and Chet Holmgren to check the latest sports games (최신 스포츠 경기 중계 확인).
