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

RJ Barrett and Shaeden Sharpe should both be SG/SF. They are both listed as guards by their team and play both shooting guard and small forward.

Caris LaVert SF Eligibility
LaVert is the starting SF for Cleveland. With Darius Garland back, and Donovan Mitchell playing the other guard position, LaVert is a SF. He was listed as the starting F in the game on 11/2, and will continue to play that position.

Jalen McDaniels CHA - SF,PF
When Mason Plumlee or Nick Richards aren't on the court and the Charlotte Hornets are playing small ball, it'sJaden McDaniels play as a center, not P.J. Washington.P.J. Washington has the center position, and so should Jaden McDaniels.
Please add C position to Jalen McDaniels. -

Most NBA fantasy leagues have this guy playing two positions PF/C and initially back in his career he had both positions in Yahoo. So now he´s not.Please add PF/C positions, thanks.

Isaiah Hartenstein should have F/C status. NBA.com has him as a F/C and he plays 45% of his time on court as F or G.

Franz Wagner starts at G. He only has SF/PF eligibility. Please add G, SG or PG, to his position eligibility. That's eight games he has started at G. Yahoo Fantasy Baseball adds eligibility when a player starts five games at a different position. You guys suck at your jobs.

Please add C to Scottie Barnes...."In last Wednesday’s win over Philadelphia, Barnes started at centre and served as the primary defender on 76ers star Joel Embiid."
Paolo Banchero also should have PF/C added.

Others to think about (besides Simmons obviously):
Herro should be a sg/sf
Sengun should be a pf/c
Adebayo should be a pf/c
Claxton should be a pf/c
All are consistent with nba.com, yahoo sports, and ESPN.

Give Simmons the F eligibility please, not sure why he isn’t. It’s hurting me in games played every week.

Caris LeVert SF
Several games started at SF even without Garland. Once Garland is back, the clear starting SF.

Thank you for gathering our feedback! I love Yahoo Fantasy sports, you all are the best!
Quick question, could you look into the player Caris LeVert on the Cavaliers? His eligibility is listed as SG only, but he starts at SF as listed on the Yahoo Cavaliers Team page. Much appreciated!
