Por Some Zingis On Me

Player: Kristaps Porzingis, New York Knicks

Current ADP: 33.0

2015-16 Stats: 14.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.9 blocks, 0.7 steals

I’m sure there are going to be a lot of folks using this one in 2016-17. I’m not entirely sure why, but it just flows so well, especially considering how awkward Kristaps Porzingis’ name can sound at times.

And yet, here we are, with Por Some Zingis On Me as one of the top fantasy basketball team names of the year.

It also helps that there’s a lot to like about Porzingis’ fantasy outlook for the upcoming campaign. The young Knicks star surprised as a rookie last season, showing off unexpected polish and effectiveness for a 19-year-old international prospect.

Look for more of the same from Porzingis in Year 2, as he tries to help the Knicks turn their offseason spending into actual success on the court.
