Ignore his worst category (turnovers) and he's worth 0.84.
Everything we said in July still holds, and then Philadelphia signed LeBron too. He is now the second scorer in a room with Embiid and a 42-year-old point forward, not the alpha he was in Boston with Tatum hurt — and that 28.7 was earned in the 66 games Tatum missed. We price the co-star version instead: 24.5-6-4.4, which is still ahead of the 23 he posted next to a healthy Tatum, because Philly's usage genuinely opens up on the nights Embiid sits. Do not let the scoring headline inflate the 9-cat math. 3.2 turnovers, 1.8 threes, one steal, 0.4 blocks and streaky percentages are why he sits here and not fifty spots higher. A points-league star and a 9-cat mid-rounder, same as ever.
Jaylen Brown enters 2026-27 at #80 on our board — Round 7 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 24.5 points, 6.0 rebounds and 4.4 assists in 33.0 minutes a night. The value is built on scoring and assists, with turnovers the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-turnovers builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability helps the case: we project about 67 games.
