Rosters - Position eligibility requests 2023-24
Position eligibility requests for the 2023-24 season.
We will continue evaluating players for new positions going forward and make updates where appropriate.
Entire list of updated players for the 23/24 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/position-eligibility-fantasy-hockey-sln7057.html

Steph Curry is playing SG as well per yahoo comments. Terrance Mann is the starting PF for Clippers per yahoo comments. I will have additional comments, but yahoo cannot announce a position in comments and then not award the position. We have taken commissioner changes out of our league as too much controversy, so yahoo as a fantasy platform needs to step up.

Hey all, I know you don’t pay attention to Canadian basketball, but for the second year in a row, Scottie Barnes should be a G, F. He plays point guard and SF. Please change it.

Hi, can you please look into the following two players in relation to gaining Center eligibility in fantasy basketball:
Daniel Gafford (Wizards) is a starting C but only has PF eligibility. He is listed as such on the Yahoo! depth chart here: https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/teams/washington/roster
Kevon Looney (Warriors) is also listed as PF/C and 2nd on the Center depth chart on the Warriors page, but only has PF eligibility in fantasy. See here: https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/teams/golden-state/roster

Can you please explain how is DeMar, who started 55+ games at SF and 15 at PF only has SG-eligibility?
Karl Anthony Towns started 0 games at C last season and still maintains C-eligibility, along with Jimmy Butler starting 0 games at PF but being awarded PF-eligibility recently, and LaVine started just 21 times at SF with SF-eligibility. There are a ton of other examples, but I think DeMar is one of the most egregious, he should have the same SG, SF, PF that Paul George has.

Wen Chieh Huang commented
Position eligibility for DeMar DeRozan is currently only SG, which is not correct. Your Depth Chart even shows he is SG/SF/PF and the starting SF. Please update it, thank you!
-
John Smith commented
Can Center eligibility be added for Lauri Markkanen? He's 7 feet tall and does spend some time at the C position.
-
bryant dentz commented
I see that DeRozan is listed as just "sg". DeRozan has been a small forward the past 5 years with his secondary position being power forward. Please change.
-
dan taren commented
DeMar Derozan is listed as the third string PF and starting SF, why doesn't he have SF, PF instead of SG?
Jarred Vanderbilt is the third string C, why has he lost his C designation? Thanks!

+PF Jalen Williams OKC
Please update - it's been months. Yahoo's position eligibility updates this year have been extremely poor.

Daniel Gafford should have PF eligibility.
Evidence:
- Gafford has started 26 straight games as PF next to Porzingis.
- Today's official roster against Dallas, for instance, lists him as PF
(https://www.nba.com/game/nyk-vs-was-0022200895/box-score#box-score)He's listed as a power forward on:
- NBA.com ("forward-center")
https://www.nba.com/player/1629655/daniel-gafford- Basketball Reference ("center and power forward")
https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/g/gaffoda01.html- Fox Sports ("power forward" only)

Jeremy Sochan surly qualifies for something other than PF, he seems to play PG or SG a lot
