Daily Fantasy: Gameplay Tutorial in 7 Quick Steps
Daily Fantasy: The Easiest Fantasy NBA Game
Do you have the insight to become an NBA GM/Coach?
Here is how to play Daily Fantasy–the coolest and most efficient way of playing NBA fantasy.
- Download the Daily Fantasy app.
You may get the Daily fantasy app from the Apple store or from this link for Android users..
- Open the app.
Once you open the Daily Fantasy, go to the Basketball tab and look at the scheduled NBA games. All the scheduled games for the next five days are available for competitions.
- PICK a scheduled game.
Choose a game among the scheduled games. Of course, you may choose more than one game if you wish.
- CHOOSE and JOIN a contest type (e.g. Mega League, Ruby Hunter, Coach Battle, etc).
Once you choose a game, you will see the contest options you may wish to join. Of course, the higher the entry cost, the higher the rewards. You may also pick a league depending on the kind of reward you want–coins or rubies. There are beginner-friendly leagues with very low stakes–perfect for players who are new to fantasy sports, and there are also leagues for more experienced players.
- BUILD your line-up.
Once you have joined a league, you will be asked to build your line-up. You will be given a budget (every player has a “credit”) and you will build a team of around 6-9 players, depending on the player cost. It is required that you use up all the budget, and that you pick at least a player for each of the 5 traditional player positions (PG, SG, SF, PF, and C). It is also inevitable that you may have more than 1 (sometimes, even 3) players for a single position.
If you do not want to pick the players manually, you may press the dice button to make the AI pick the “best available” players considering their usage rates. This is also known as the “auto-pick” feature. After picking the team, press “Done” to submit your entry. You may submit as many squad entries as you want.
- WATCH and ENJOY the game.
If you are playing with a group, it would be a lot more fun and engaging to watch the game together live–it adds another dimension to the game-viewing experience.
- GET your rewards!
After the game is done, all players who joined a match’s league will be automatically ranked according to the game stats. The reward you will receive will be based on your ranking.
Enjoy!
