It’s the final weekend before the NBA regular season begins, which means you’re coming here for your fantasy basketball drafts.
Should you draft Alexandre Sarr this season? Here’s the latest outlook, projections, and rankings for the Washington Wizards Power Forward.
Should You Draft Alexandre Sarr in Fantasy Basketball?
Alex Sarr enters his sophomore season ahead of schedule in terms of development, flashing more polish as a rookie than many anticipated. The 2024 No. 2 overall pick finished fourth in Rookie of the Year voting, flashing two-way production with 1.6 threes, 1.5 blocks, and 0.7 steals per game. His shot-blocking, floor spacing, and defensive activity give him strong upside in category formats.
A full-time center role is likely this season, with Jonas Valanciunas in Denver. Sarr should post stronger board numbers while maintaining elite rim protection. Incremental improvements as a pick-and-roll finisher and shot selector could help unlock his scoring potential.
An increase in minutes would significantly boost Sarr’s fantasy value across formats. His solid passing instincts add another dimension to his game. Sarr should be viewed as a rising fantasy option in category leagues, with even higher appeal in points formats.
