NEW TO BASKETBALL? THERE’S A SPOT IN THE FLOCK.
The short rulebook.
Five players. Five different jobs.
Choose one different NBA player for each slot: points, rebounds, assists, blocks, and steals. Any basketball position can fill any slot. Only that slot’s statistic counts: your rebounds pick earns rebounds, not their points or assists.
You have 100 fictional Duck Dollars for the whole squad. A player’s price varies by category—a great scorer may be an affordable rebounder. Different managers may pick the same players, but you cannot use a player twice on your own roster.
How do I win?
Each category is a separate race using cumulative regular-season totals. More is better in all five. With six scoring managers, first in a category earns six league points and last earns one. Add all five categories to find the league leader.
Categories have equal weight, so a steals specialist matters as much as a scorer. Ties share the points for their places. Tied overall totals share a rank. Saved rosters begin competing on the league’s scoring start date.
What if a player does not play?
A player who misses a game earns no stats for it. This is a totals contest, so availability and playing time matter. No appearances means zero in that category; it does not mean the player is removed from your team.
There are no injury replacements outside a scheduled draft window. Check injury news and rotation roles before locking. Provider roster and injury labels may be delayed.
How do drafts and redrafts work?
Create a league, invite up to 24 managers, and save all five picks before 00:00 UTC on the scoring start date. No past games count. Choose season keepers or up to three redraft dates at least 14 days apart.
Each redraft opens seven days before its scoring date. You can change players and category assignments. Earlier results remain yours; new picks begin on the new date. If you skip a redraft, your last saved roster carries forward. Dates are fixed when the league is created.
How are Duck Dollar prices calculated?
Prices are fictional game credits, not NBA salaries, entry fees, betting odds, or cash prizes. Prior-season statistics inform prices and suggestions; neither is a prediction.
Which games count?
Completed NBA regular-season games only. Preseason, play-in, playoff, and exhibition games do not count. A game is assigned to its scheduled tip-off date in America/New_York time. League draft locks use 00:00 UTC. The scoring season ends before July 1.
Results refresh hourly. Recent box scores are checked again for corrections, and older games are revisited on a rotating schedule. If a refresh fails, the last successful data stays visible with its timestamp. This independent open beta is not affiliated with the NBA or ESPN.
