Dribble, Dunk, Dominate—Take Your Shot with Fantasy Basketball!
DownloadBasketball Overview and Fantasy Rules for FantasyHots
Basketball is a fast-paced team sport in which two teams, typically consisting of five players each, compete to score points by shooting a ball through the opposing team’s hoop. Played on a rectangular court, the game involves dribbling, passing, and shooting while employing strategic plays to outmaneuver the opposition. Points are awarded based on shooting distances; a field goal (from any area on the court) is worth two points, while a three-pointer (from behind the three-point arc) is worth three points. Free throws, awarded after certain fouls, score one point each.
In FantasyHots, we take the excitement of basketball and turn it into a competitive fantasy game. As a player, you build your own team of real-life NBA athletes and earn points based on their statistical performance throughout the actual games. Here are the key rules to keep in mind when participating in FantasyHots:
