The fantasy basketball playoffs continue, so here's a look at the Week 22 High Score perfect lineup.

It’s fantasy basketball championship week and if you’ve made it this far, congratulations. All your hard work over the season comes down to one matchup, a matchup that may be difficult to navigate given how wild silly season has gotten. Games are either very, very tight or way too loose given teams are either fighting for actual playoff positioning or are tanking/eliminated from contention.

It has created some of the perfect fantasy basketball environments for players down the stretch. It’s been a fun ride in the first season of Yahoo High Score fantasy basketball, so let’s go over the perfect lineup from Week 22. Week 22 High Score Perfect Lineup.

Dillon Minshall More on the top performers Scottie Barnes, guard : The Raptors swingman is tracking toward being a top-10 asset in High Score fantasy this season with excellent category coverage. Two stats that are of the most importance in High Score are steals and blocks. If you’re consistently racking up either of those catties then you’ve got a good chance of reaching a ceiling.

Barnes has gone 12 straight games with at least one steal, and the last time he didn’t register a steal or block in a game was Feb. 22. Toronto isn’t clear of the play-in in the East yet, so expect Barnes to continue to play big minutes and help out in the championship round.
