Best Fantasy Basketball Team Names for 2024

To win in fantasy basketball, you need to scour the practice reports, pore over the advanced stats, monitor the waiver wire and of course get lucky.

To be cool in fantasy basketball, you need none of that, though. You need dad jokes.

Because the way to be cool in fantasy sports is to have a cool team name. If you finish in first with a team name like “John’s Team 42315,” well, I mean, congrats on your win, but you’re boring. But if you finish third with “Everybody Loves Draymond,” well … you didn’t win, but you were way more interesting than John was, and doesn’t that count for something?

So with that in mind, the FTN team and I got together to come up with our full list of the best and coolest (or at least the most eye-rollingly, groan-worthy dad-jokey) fantasy basketball team names for the 2024-2025 season. There are over 200 names here, so scroll through, find your team, find your team name. Or at least find your inspiration.
