2024-25 Fantasy Basketball: Roundtable debate — our favorite sleepers at each position

You can’t leave a fantasy basketball draft without taking a chance on at least a few sleepers. That won’t change for the 2024-25 draft season. Here, Dan Titus is joined by RotoWire analysts Alex Barutha and Kirien Sprecher to reveal their favorite targets with sleeper potential.

Sexton enjoyed a mini breakout in the 2020-2021 season, but injuries and a trade to Utah halted his momentum. That was until last year when the now 25-year-old vet enjoyed the second-best fantasy season of his six-year career. Sexton’s efficiency (48/39/86 shooting splits) and combination of scoring and facilitating put him on the cusp of being a top-100 player.

If Jones can flirt with 50/40/90 shooting splits, dish out eight-plus assists and record a steal per game, he should easily clear his current ADP (110.4) even if he isn’t scoring at a high clip. Jones also has a strong track record of staying healthy, playing at least 65 games in seven straight seasons, including 70-plus appearances four times. — Kirien Sprecher

Ivey’s first two years in the NBA have been a mixed bag. He had a solid rookie season but lost all momentum last year when Monty Williams took over as head coach and basically decided not to play Ivey for two months. Now that Williams is gone and J.B. Bickerstaff is in, my hope is that the…
