Collin Murray-Boyles 2026-27 Outlook: Versatile Frontcourt Value

Entering his second NBA season at 21 years old, Collin Murray-Boyles is generating steady fantasy traction, with his rostered rate rising to nearly 59%. After refining his conditioning over the summer to enhance explosiveness, he impressed in the preseason with a 19-point, nine-rebound performance that drew praise from Kawhi Leonard.

Toronto’s depth chart positions Murray-Boyles as the primary reserve big behind Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl. While competing alongside established starters keeps his baseline minutes capped, his positional versatility across power forward and center secures him regular rotational opportunity.

Our projections forecast 23.0 minutes, 9.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.0 block per game across 72 appearances while shooting 58.8% from the floor. Meeting that baseline makes him an efficient late-round asset with significant upside should frontcourt injuries open larger opportunities.

Outlook CJ McCollum

CJ McCollum Season Outlook: Veteran Scoring Anchor in Atlanta's Backcourt

CJ McCollum enters his 14th NBA campaign holding the starting point guard role for Atlanta alongside backcourt partner Dyson Daniels. At 35 years old, McCollum carries an ADP of 85.1, representing steady mid-round value for fantasy managers targeting dependable guard production. While his start rate has cooled slightly to 71%, his 97% rostered share confirms strong baseline trust in his established rotational security.

Our models project McCollum to remain heavily involved, forecasting 29.9 minutes, 18.0 points, and 3.8 assists per game while shooting 45.1% from the field. Having moved past a minor nose contusion suffered in early October, his perimeter scoring and secondary playmaking will balance Atlanta's attack alongside primary frontcourt hub Jalen Johnson.

Across our projected 75-game slate, McCollum provides an accessible path to roughly 1,350 total points. Although his advanced age brings modest rest and durability risk, his secure volume and steady efficiency make him a high-floor fantasy asset.
