2024 Fantasy Outlook
Though he's made just one All-Star game, VanVleet has been a top-30 fantasy talent for half a decade. That didn't change last season despite the point guard moving from Toronto to Houston in free agency. He was able to pull back his scoring burden and focus on being a floor general for the up-and-coming Rockets. That resulted in a five-year scoring low (17.4 PPG), but VanVleet registered a career-high 8.1 assists with just 1.7 turnovers and reached a true-shooting career high of 56.8 percent. That was in addition to his quality defensive numbers (1.4 steals and 0.8 blocks) despite being listed at only six feet tall. Houston added even more young talent this summer, selecting guard Reed Sheppard with the No. 3 overall pick. That's in addition to other scorers or playmakers like Jalen Green, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore. It's possible coach Ime Udoka has the 30-year-old VanVleet slightly pull back his role again to help facilitate the futures of the franchise, especially with FVV having averaged over 36 minutes per game in four straight seasons. Either way, he's a bit of an injury risk given the excessive minutes, age and having cracked 70 games just twice in his career (73 last year). A downward trend is more likely than an upward one, but that doesn't mean fantasy managers should avoid him if he's available in the third round. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $50 million contract with the Rockets in June of 2025. Contains a player option for 2025-26. 
To sign two-year deal with Houston
VanVleet will sign a two-year, $50 million contract with the Rockets, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
ANALYSIS
In order to do this, the Rockets will officially decline VanVleet's $44.9 million team option for 2025-26. His new two-year deal will include a player option for 2026-27. A reunion always seems like the most likely outcome, with both sides seemingly motivated to get this done right away. In 60 regular-season contests in 2024-25, VanVleet shot just 37.8 percent from the field with averages of 14.1 points, 5.6 assists and 3.7 rebounds.

After establishing himself as an elite point guard in Toronto, VanVleet opted to sign with the Rockets for the upcoming season. He is coming off three straight seasons in which he ended inside the top 20 in standard formats. The 2022-23 campaign saw him averaging 19.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 7.2 assists, 1.8 steals and 3.1 three-pointers in 36.8 minutes per game. While he has been a consistent second-round asset, his playing time has typically exceeded 36 minutes per night over the past few years, factoring into his fantasy value. His playing time is almost certainly going to be reduced in Houston, a fact that should not be lost on fantasy managers. Fewer minutes may result in a slight reduction in production, landing him toward the end of the second round, or even the early third round. However, by lightening the load on a nightly basis, there is a chance he will play in more than 70 games for the first time in recent memory, boosting his total value. As an elite contributor on both ends of the floor, VanVleet's projected value should hold steady for at least another couple of years.
