Ignore his worst category (rebounds) and he's worth -1.28.
The per-game package is sneaky good — 4.7 assists and 1.5 steals with double-digit scoring — but the availability collapsed to 10 games last season and our expected number sits at a grim 35. That's the whole rank: production we trust, a body we don't. Draft him as a discounted assists-and-steals bet and keep a replacement plan handy.
Scotty Pippen Jr. enters 2026-27 at #171 on our board — Round 15 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 11.0 points, 3.1 rebounds and 4.7 assists in 21.9 minutes a night. The value is built on steals and assists, with rebounds the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-rebounds builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 35 games, which is priced into his draft value.
