Premise: Every player in FBB has a number rating, it's not the best, but it will serve as a baseline for this article. I'm taking the average of the top 10 players for each hometown, enough to fill out a 10-man rotation. If there aren't 10 players associated with a hometown, those spots will count as a 0.
