Rosters - Position eligibility requests 2025-26

Position eligibility requests for the 2025-26 season.

We will continue evaluating players for new positions going forward and make updates where appropriate.

Entire list of updated players for the 25/26 season: https://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba/playerchanges?type=pos

As of 10/4/23, we added the option for Commissioners to award position eligibility to players that haven't earned it by Yahoo Fantasy's standards yet. Keep in mind, this tool will only allow commissioners to add positions, not edit or remove them. Commissioners can add new positions using the steps here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN7057.html

    Paolo Banchero and Scottie Barnes both play small ball C.

    Please add C to both!

    +PG to Bruce Brown

    Brown is actually listed on your Yahoo Denver Nuggets official roster page as the backup PG to starter Jamaal Murray

  • B C commented  ·   ·  Report

    Scottie Barnes has started 6 games as a G, and should be G eligible.

  • [Deleted User] commented  ·   ·  Report

    Malik Monk (Kings) - SF
    Royce O'Neal (Nets) - PF

    Thank you, Yaboo.

    We appreciate what you do. Please add PG designation for Josh Giddy. He spends a great deal of time of time as the primary ball handler and is top 2 in assists for OKC. He is widely known as a PG in several publications.

    FRANZ WAGNER-add PG—thanks for the SG add, but Wagner has been playing PG for the entire season and especially because their PGs have been constantly out the line up. Suggs, Anthony, etc. have all been hurt for extended periods of time. Wagner has been the PG in their absences. Please add PG eligibility for Franz Wagner.

    The below players must have the following positions as well:

    DESMOND BANE (MEM - PG, SG, SF):
    - Since drafted, he occasionally plays PG.

    MALIK BEASLEY (UTH - PG, SG, SF):
    - He plays some minutes in the PG position when coming from the bench.

    Please add it.

    The NBA is almost positionless. Why does Yahoo still heavily restrict position eligibility? I understand not easily giving out PG or C eligibility, but SG-PF are interchangeable.

  • JX commented  ·   ·  Report

    Bruce Brown - PG

    Luka Doncic, Cade Cunningham - SF

    Jalen Williams - PF

    Jalen McDaniels - C

  • Carlo A. commented  ·   ·  Report

    The Cavs have the following as their starting 5:

    PG - Garland
    SG - Donovan
    SF - Levert
    PF - Mobley
    C - Allen

    Maybe it’s about time for us to formalize the obvious, yahoo?

  • T commented  ·   ·  Report

    Hi, the NBA season is a month old and some of the most clear and obvious position eligibility updates (e.g. +SF Caris LeVert) have not yet been made.

    Could you please update player position eligibility, and do so more frequently going forward? Thank you.

  • T commented  ·   ·  Report

    +SF to Gary Trent Jr. Trent has always been a wing, no idea why he has PG,SG instead of SG,SF eligibility. ty

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Caris Levert should be SF eligible
    Zach Lavine should be PG eligible
    Paul George should be SG eligible

    Please explain how you apparently don’t have enough evidence to support the above changes but you magically had enough data to support making Herbert Jones a sg/sf/pf, Alec Burks a pg/sg/sf (even tho he played only 1 game all season) and even worse Vit Krejci a pg/sg/sf/pf who is a no name bench player that has only played a total of 14 minutes all season? Does that make any sense to you and your so called reliable data support providers? Please elaborate more on how they all qualified for 3+ multiple positions yet Paul George and Zach Lavine and Levert don’t qualify for an extra position when all you have to do is literally turn on the tv and watch their games to see that they do

    Zion Williamson plays the small-ball Center at different times in most games. As also indicated below - Basketball Reference, the Pelicans have ran Zion quite a bit as a C (51% as of today).

    Also, Josh Giddy plays more Point Guard (PG) than any other position. Please update ASAP. Thank you.
