Best game, each NBA week
Historical Lock-In results credit every player’s highest fantasy-points total from each regular-season week.
The Lock-In difference
A ceiling game is useful only when you can capture it.
Lock-In Mode changes the question from “Which player starts tonight?” to “Which player can deliver the best fantasy-points score this week?” StatDunk keeps the decision visible in a rankings table you can sort, compare, and take into your draft.
How the rankings work
Totals and per-game tell different stories
Totals reward availability across a full season. Per-game value makes it easier to compare upside when workload is uncertain.
Use projections, then validate the profile
Start with the 2026–27 projection board, then use player details and past Lock-In results to test the type of season a player can deliver.
Current-season research
Build the draft board around weekly winning outcomes.
The projection table is the current-season starting point. The historical table is the evidence: use it to see how player value moved when Lock-In rewarded each week’s peak performance.

What is fantasy basketball Lock-In Mode?
Lock-In Mode rewards a player’s best fantasy-points game in each NBA week instead of requiring you to select one game before it is played.
Should I use totals or per-game rankings?
Use totals to value full-season availability. Use per-game rankings to compare upside when players have similar schedules or uncertain workloads.
Are these rankings for the current season?
The Lock-In projection board is for 2026–27. The historical results page is clearly labeled as the completed 2025–26 season so you can separate forecast from evidence.
