Why Sports.ws Fantasy Hoops Dominates

Head-to-Head Scoring Our unique scoring system lets you play a full 82-game season. We invented head-to-head "Per Minute" scoring and are the biggest site using it. To see it in action, try our fantasy lineup simulator. Your schedule produces box scores, standings; customizable your playoff series and brackets. Assign any fantasy point value to any statistic. Start as late as you want with no penalty or delay. While it may sound more complicated than standard rotisserie or head-to-head, it's actually less work to maintain your lineup. Stop being penalized for fluke injuries and not being able to check every Monday!

The Competitor They claim to be "Head-to-Head" by adding up stats each week instead of each game. Players get treated the same whether they play 2 games or 4 games in a week; you waste time rearranging your lineup based on which team is going to play. No differentation between a player who plays the whole game and a player that plays a few minutes. Weekly results means lineups and standings only change once per week.

Sports.ws Each game is counted; you get 82 box scores based on your lineup settings. Every player is eligible for every game. Spend less time worrying about "spots" you are going to fill; backups automatically sub in when minutes are available. Play 3 or 4 games a week, just like the pros.
