Fantasy rankings: Caitlin Clark claims top spot

The 2025 rookie class takes center stage in this week's fantasy women's basketball rankings update, as Paige Bueckers, Sonia Citron, Kiki Iriafen and Aneesah Morrow each move up multiple spots.

The rankings also have a new No. 1 player as A'ja Wilson returned from injury with a bang, averaging 22.0 PPG, 10.5 RPG, 2.5 BPG, 2.0 APG and 1.5 SPG in her two games back. Meanwhile, last week's top player Caitlin Clark has struggled over the past three games, and her slump has already lowered her fantasy scoring average by a couple points.

Jonquel Jones has also dropped precipitously in this week's rankings after news that an ankle injury will sideline her for at least a month. In her absence, Nyara Sabally has moved into the starting lineup for the New York Liberty and has become a nightly double-double threat.

Kahleah Copper one of the biggest risers this week as she works her way back from a knee injury that cost her the first month of the season. Copper is still not quite up to full strength, but her playing time has increased in every game. She projects to be a top-15 fantasy producer when healthy.

These rankings are based on ESPN's default women's basketball settings, which award one point for each point, assist and rebound, a bonus point for making a 3-pointer and two points each for blocks and steals.
