The 10 Best Fantasy Basketball Seasons in Recent History
Which NBA players have provided the most value to fantasy basketball owners in recent years?

4. Shawn Marion, Phoenix Suns (2005-06)

Values: 1.32 Total/1.11 Per Game/.56 Per 36 Minutes

In his many years in charge of the Phoenix Suns, head coach Mike D'Antoni turned several solid players into heavy producers. We usually think of Steve Nash and Amar'e Stoudemire, but Shawn Marion was even more of a statistical monster. In 2005, the Swiss Army Knife of a forward turned out 21.8 points, 11.8 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and 1.7 steals in 40.3 minutes.

In those four countable categories, Marion had values of at least 1.25. In rebounds and steals, he took it a step further to reach values of 2.52 and 2.1, respectively. The only other category in which he attained a value of 2.0 or better was field goal percentage, where Marion converted at a rate of 52.5% for a value that placed fourth among all NBA hoopers.
