Fantasy Basketball Auction Draft 2025 — Josh Lloyd runs through a full 9-category mock draft using a balanced budget strategy. Kevin Durant is the most expensive player on the roster, but this approach focuses on depth, flexibility, and value rather than top-heavy spending.
Josh breaks down live auction prices, player tiers, and how to react when bidding gets out of control. Learn how to manage your budget, target mid-tier talent, and secure endgame steals without being left holding cash.
Featuring analysis of players like Kevin Durant, Cade Cunningham, Scottie Barnes, and Alperen Sengun, this mock explores how to pivot your strategy when stars go for big money and when to attack undervalued assets.
Watch to learn the mindset, pacing, and discipline needed to dominate your fantasy basketball auction draft.
