Fantasy Basketball

1. Team Formation

To participate in fantasy basketball, you must create a team of 10 players from the real-life squads playing in the match. Your team should include a combination of guards, forwards, and centers. The selection must adhere to the following format:

• 2-4 Guards: Players responsible for ball handling, assists, and perimeter shooting.
• 2-4 Forwards: Players who excel in scoring, rebounding, and defense.
• 1-2 Centers: Players who dominate the paint with rebounds, blocks, and inside scoring.

2. Scoring System

Points are awarded based on the real-life performance of the players in your fantasy team. Here’s how the scoring works:

• Scoring Points:
  • 1 point for every point scored.
  • 5 bonus points for scoring 20+ points in a game.
  • 10 bonus points for scoring 30+ points in a game.
• Rebounding Points:
  • 1.2 points for every rebound.
  • 5 bonus points for 10+ rebounds in a game.
• Assists and Steals:
  • 1.5 points for every assist.
  • 2 points for every steal.
• Blocks and Turnovers:
  • 2 points for every block.
  • -1 point for every turnover.

3. Captain and Vice-Captain

One of the most critical decisions in fantasy basketball is selecting your captain and vice-captain. The captain earns 2x the points, while the vice-captain earns 1.5x the points. Choose wisely, as these players can significantly impact your overall score.

4. Substitutions and Transfers

You can make changes to your team before the match starts. However, once the game begins, no further changes are allowed. In some leagues, you may have the option to make substitutions during the match, but this depends on the specific rules of the contest.

5. Leagues and Contests

Fantasy basketball offers various types of leagues and contests:

• Public Leagues: Open to all players. Compete against a large pool of participants for rewards.
• Private Leagues: Create or join leagues with friends, family, or colleagues. Set your own rules and compete in a smaller group.
• Head-to-Head Contests: Compete directly against another player. The one with the higher score wins.
• Grand Leagues: High-stakes contests with large prize pools. Requires a higher entry fee and offers bigger rewards.

6. Fair Play and Guidelines

To ensure a fair and enjoyable experience for all players, FantasyHot enforces strict guidelines:

• Do not create multiple accounts to participate in the same contest.
• Respect other players and avoid any form of harassment or abuse.
• Follow the rules of the platform and the specific contest you are participating in.
• Any attempt to manipulate the game or use unfair means will result in disqualification and account suspension.
