We've entered the top 10 in #NBArank, where KD takes a dip due to his foot injury. #NBArank 8| 9| 10
Discuss!Live #NBArank: 11-15

we can blame this virgin:

Neil Paine, FiveThirtyEight.com (rated Durant 6 of 10): "Durant rated as 9 for me before his injury (LeBron James was the only 10 I gave out), and that was under the assumption he'd play something like 80 games and 3,000 minutes. Now, ESPN's fantasy projections call for him to play only 50 games and about 1,900 minutes. In terms of "Real Plus-Minus Wins Above Replacement," that means he'll generate only about 60 percent of the value he would have had he played the full season. If the replacement level for #NBArank is a rating somewhere between 2 and 3, and Durant is losing 40 percent of his value above that level, it drops him to 6."

Yeah, he was ranked that on the fantasy draft rankings because of only being predicted to play 50 games. I bumped him up to #3 (Behind LeBron and Davis), because I'm guessing I can survive without him during the beginning as I prepare for the playoffs.

This guy has way too much time on his hands.
