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

    I provided links to their NBA page which states the amount of time they spend as a Guard or Forward.
    Paolo Banchero plays Small Forward, Power Forward, and Center. https://www.nba.com/stats/player/1631094/by-position?Matchup=Offense
    RJ Barret Plays small Forward and shooting Guard. https://www.nba.com/stats/player/1629628/by-position?Matchup=Offense
    Cam Reddish Plays small Forward and shooting Guard. https://www.nba.com/stats/player/1629629/by-position?Matchup=Offense
    Gordon Hayward plays small Forward and shooting Guard. https://www.nba.com/stats/player/202330/by-position?Matchup=Offense

    If Aleksej Pokusevski is SF/PF/C eligible than Paolo Banchero, OG Annunoby and Scottie Barnes should also have C eligibility added. Paolo basically plays backup C in some lineups. OG started at PF today, Scottie takes the tip as the C and both play C in games for the raptors long bois lineups. Please do the right thing.

    Paolo - PF/C
    OG - SG/SF/PF/C
    Barnes - SF/PF/C

    how about the ability to further divide the updated list uo? I.e. top 100 players who have had an update, top 250, top 500. or 50, 150, 300. or however you choose to do it. but the vast majority of the players listed aren't fantasy relevant

  • Glenn Lowachee commented  ·   ·  Report

    G. Antetokounmpo should also have SF
    J. Randle should also have C
    J. Vanderbilt should also have C

  • Markus Laminator commented  ·   ·  Report

    Ben Simmons should at least have PF eligibility

    Caris Levert should have SG and SF

  • Kem Gee commented  ·   ·  Report

    Giannis should have SF eligibility, especially now with Middleton & Connaughton not healthy. He would have to play lower with Portis playing PF

  • Colin Franz commented  ·   ·  Report

    He's had PF elibiligity for years. He is a positionless big. This makes fantasy game less fun.

  • Cory Roberts commented  ·   ·  Report

    Brandon Clarke should have C eligibility. Your own article on 10/16/2022 about his new contract extension says he is a F/C for Memphis

  • Jason Deane commented  ·   ·  Report

    Precious Achiuwa should have sf/pf, like end of last year,
    Jokic also had pf last year, only center now

  • Alex P commented  ·   ·  Report

    Julius Randle should also have C
    Jarred Vanderbilt should also have C
    Gary Trent should also have SF
    Kevin Porter should also have SG/SF

  • Richard Ou commented  ·   ·  Report

    I could swear Kelly Olynyk originally had forward eligibility a couple of weeks ago - was it removed? Only after we drafted did I notice he was listed as C only, which hurts my team as I already have two other C-only players.

  • Francis Gavino commented  ·   ·  Report

    Caris LeVert is starting as SF, will play as SG at times. Please change eligibility to SG/SF. Thanks.

  • Bzzt Bzzt commented  ·   ·  Report

    Add SG on Trae. He's going to play 2 when Dejounte's switched to 1.

  • Adam Cook commented  ·   ·  Report

    I have 3 position eligibility concerns on my current team.
    1. Fred VanVleet is only PG and not SG. Fred is poised to play a lot more off-ball this season with Scottie Barnes, Pascal Siakam, and even Dalano Banton running the point. Removing his SG eligibility from last season is confusing.
    2. Ben Simmons being only PG is odd. He's always been a Point Forward. He should have PF at the very least.
    3. Bradley Beal no longer has SF. Will Barton has SG/SF eligibility on Washington, but Beal only has SG. Seems odd to me since they'll likely be sharing each role.
