Every fantasy basketball championship is built on consistency. While chasing high-upside breakouts can be tempting, the safest fantasy basketball players to draft in 2025 are those who deliver reliable production night after night. These high-floor NBA picks combine excellent per-game averages with proven durability—giving you the stable foundation every winning roster needs. In this guide, we reveal our three All-Floor teams featuring the most dependable fantasy producers for the 2025 season, from elite guards like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to dominant big men like Nikola Jokic.

First Team All-Floor

Guard: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Oklahoma City Thunder

The 2025 MVP is versatile on both sides of the ball and can rack up fantasy totals quickly. He's a three-level scorer who is especially adept at drawing fouls, which result in additional trips to the charity stripe. He's also very durable, with only 13 missed games over the past two seasons.

Guard: Anthony Edwards, Minnesota Timberwolves

Edwards is the offensive centerpiece of the Timberwolves and has a talented supporting cast around him. He's a dynamic player who makes highlight-reel-worthy plays on a nightly basis. Although he takes abuse when he slashes inside and draws a lot of attention from opposing defenses, Edwards has played 72-plus games over the last four seasons.

Forward: Jaylen Brown, Boston Celtics

Although he underwent knee surgery in the offseason, a breakout campaign could be in store for Brown. He's the heir to the throne of Boston's offense with Jayson Tatum out until April at the earliest, and he'll have

Forward: Jaylen Brown, Boston Celtics

Although he underwent knee surgery in the offseason, a breakout campaign could be in store for Brown. He's the heir to the throne of Boston's offense with Jayson Tatum out until April at the earliest, and he'll have little competition at the wing once he's back to 100 percent. He's missed a few more games than other people on the first team, but his tremendous upside earns him a spot.

Forward: Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee Bucks

Giannis is a nightly double-double threat and is arguably one of the most dynamic players in the league. He can burn you on both sides of the ball, and the only knock on his game is his work at the free-throw line. He can play hurt and only misses games in the most extreme circumstances.

Center: Nikola Jokic, Denver Nuggets

Jokic's inclusion in the first team is no surprise. Jokic will pop with triple-doubles almost every week, and few players in the league can match his prolific numbers. He can spur the Nuggets to victory through sheer will, and it's a miracle that he's stayed healthy throughout most of his career despite his tremendous volume. He's missed only 15 games over the past two seasons.

Second Team All-Floor

Guard: Luka Doncic, Los Angeles Lakers

In the past, Doncic's lack of conditioning and overall fitness have been a concern, but it appears he's taken steps to correct that narrative in the offseason. According to reports, he has shed several pounds and is in the best shape of his career. With LeBron James nearing retirement, Doncic is poised to take the reins of LA's offense, and he's already made an impact since joining the team last February. Like Jokic, he has triple-double potential whenever he takes the floor and is a dream addition to any fantasy squad.

Guard: Jalen Brunson, New York Knicks

Although the recent hiring of Mike Brown might alter the offensive scheme for the Knicks, it shouldn't adversely affect Brunson. He's one of the most productive and consistent guards in the league, and he's coming off a career season where he was the driving force behind New York's playoff run. He's been impacted by injuries in the past, but he's averaged 70 games over his three-year tenure with the Knicks.

Forward: Evan Mobley, Cleveland Cavaliers

Mobley could be one of the most underrated players in the league, but he won't fly under the radar with us. Although he was limited by injury during the 2023-24 season, he's been very durable otherwise. He matches his excellent attendance with a superior interior game and the ability to stretch the floor with adept mid-range shooting. He'll often finish with a double-double and will rarely disappoint.

Forward: Pascal Siakam, Indiana Pacers

Siakam had a very productive 2024-25 season and was typically the team's top scorer. With Tyrese Haliburton out and Myles Turner off to Milwaukee, Siakam should be the offensive centerpiece for a squad that will need Bennedict Mathurin and Andrew Nembhard to step up. There's little doubt that Siakam's role will expand, and he's managed to remain injury-free for the past four seasons.

Center: Victor Wembanyama, San Antonio Spurs

There were some initial concerns about Wembanyama's durability after an injury torpedoed his rookie campaign, but he silenced the critics by appearing in 71 games last season. Wembanyama is one of those generational players whose upside is uncapped, and he should have one of the highest floors on this list. Nikola Jokic was the only barrier keeping him from first-team honors.

Third Team All-Floor

Guard: Trae Young, Atlanta Hawks

Young is the definition of consistency, as the talented point guard continues to churn out a high floor nightly for the Hawks. He had some injury struggles during the 2023-24 season, but he's usually good for at least 70 games. Young is an adept dime-dropper who can put up double-doubles with regularity, and Dyson Daniels' presence on the floor has helped to boost Young's production. 

Guard: Devin Booker, Phoenix Suns

With Kevin Durant off to Houston, all eyes will be on Booker as the unquestioned leader in Phoenix. He's one of the best shooting guards in the league and is a productive multi-category fantasy threat. He's capable of enormous totals, and we will probably see more than a few 40-point explosions in the new offensive scheme. Although such upside is his best asset, his floor is very dependable and invaluable.

Forward: Paolo Banchero, Orlando Magic

Orlando will be a team to watch this season as they add Desmond Bane to the starting lineup, and Banchero will continue to be the team's top offensive option. Although he flies under the radar a bit due to the small market, he's deserving of a second-team spot. He can rack up rebounds and points regularly, and although his 2024-25 season was thwarted by an oblique injury, he's only 22 and is just beginning to come into his own. Banchero is still developing and has some shooting issues he needs to fix, but his sheer volume will make up for the deficiency.

Forward: Scottie Barnes, Toronto Raptors

Barnes is the offensive engine for the Raptors, who are finally starting to put together a competitive roster. The team depends on consistent fantasy production from Barnes, and he almost always delivers. While he's had some injury setbacks over the past two seasons, it's easy to forget that he just turned 24 in August, and his body should be able to handle the volume. While we value durability, his nightly contributions were strong enough to merit an addition to the third team. His thumb injury appears to be behind him, and he should be ready to go for the regular season.

Center: Domantas Sabonis, Sacramento Kings

Sabonis doesn't get the attention he deserves. Two seasons ago, the center actually outdueled Nikola Jokic for the highest triple-double total, and he nearly repeated that feat last season. He displays MVP-level production without getting any votes for the crown, but that could change if Sacramento's playoff chances improve. A triple-double is a regular occurrence for Sabonis, and he's proven to be very durable. He's only missed 15 games over the past three seasons.

Bam Adebayo, Miami Heat
