Fantasy Basketball High Score Perfect Lineup: Victor Wembanyama’s historic game leads the way in Week 3

We’re approaching the one-month mark of the 2026-27 NBA regular season, and it’s been a rough go for fantasy basketball managers trying to dodge injuries. Case in point: Lakers superstar Luka Dončić sat out Sunday’s game but still managed to deliver earlier in the week (more on that below).

But if you’re back here, you’re enjoying your second full season of Yahoo High Score fantasy basketball. As always, the top point total from each player each week is what counts toward your final goal. Let’s take a look at the perfect lineup from Week 3 and how the top performers fared. One of the players had a historic performance.

He did leave Sunday’s contest with an ankle injury, which is something to monitor.

Victor Wembanyama: The Spurs’ big man made fantasy basketball history by tying Bam Adebayo for the highest point total in High Score with 110. Adebayo’s legendary 83-point game from last season got it done. But Wemby’s stat line was a bit wilder: 52 points, 24 rebounds, 8 blocks, 2 assists and 2 steals. He almost had a 52-24-10 triple-double with blocks. We may not see another fantasy output like this all season.

Nikola Jokić: The Joker is going to pop up plenty in this list throughout the season, though he has been off to a slow start in…
