Luka Dončić Headlines 2026-27 Fantasy Basketball Point Guard Rankings

The 2026-27 fantasy basketball draft board puts Luka Dončić at the top of the point-guard pool for points leagues, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Cade Cunningham immediately behind him. The position is loaded with dual- and triple-eligibility names, giving managers room to build around high-usage creators without treating the point guard slot as a one-position decision.

Dončić carries both point guard and shooting guard eligibility with the Lakers, while Gilgeous-Alexander is listed strictly at point guard for Oklahoma City. Cunningham joins Dončić in the PG/SG group, and Anthony Edwards is the first multi-position swing option, eligible at point guard, shooting guard and small forward for Minnesota.

The first 10 also includes Tyrese Maxey, Tyrese Haliburton, Donovan Mitchell, Josh Giddey, Jamal Murray and LaMelo Ball. Giddey’s three-position designation stands out at No. 8, while Murray and Ball are listed as point-guard-only options. Ball is assigned to Minnesota in this ranking.

The rankings move from No. 35 to No. 37, with no No. 36 player listed. Harper begins that final stretch ahead of Ty Jerome, Zach LaVine and Andrew Nembhard, followed by McCollum and Peterson. The bottom portion still offers usable roster flexibility: Dosunmu joins LaVine, Edwards, Thompson, Giddey, Daniels and Reaves as a PG/SF/SG option, while Holiday and Porter close the 50-player list with PG/SG eligibility.
