Rank 1 allows the most, among all 30 teams (also when the table shows only some). Click a column to sort. Every opposing player counts for the position he played that night: starters for their slot in the starting lineup, the bench for their usual position. Use it with the props board: a line against a top-10 defense for that position has the matchup on its side.
