How to Play

Build the roster

Spin for a draft pool, then select five cards under the point cap.

• 2 Guards
• 2 Forwards
• 1 Center
• Stay at 32 points or less

Spin rules

Each spin shows 8 available cards. You can keep spinning while building your roster.

• Your first 3 spins are free.
• Each spin after that costs 0.5 points.
• Switching a drafted player costs 1 point.
• Unused free spins can add a small win bonus.

Game modes

Use the mode toggle before drafting to choose the card pool.

• Standard uses the main player file plus Sports Rap Network cards.
• Legends Only uses nba_legends.csv.
• Changing modes resets the current draft.
• Only seasons with 65+ games played are eligible.

Card values

Regular cards are scored by stats only, then ranked against the full card pool.

• Values 1-10 are percentile tiers across all regular cards.
• Stats include points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, shooting efficiency, and turnovers when available.
• Sports Rap Network cards are special 12-point cards.
• The card note explains why each value was assigned.

Win total

Your final record compares your roster to league-average production.

• Scoring: points per game
• Playmaking: assists per game
• Rebounding: rebounds per game
• Defense: steals and blocks
• Star power: total stat strength
• Cap discipline, switches, and paid spins also affect the result

Perfect season

An 82-win season is possible. You need elite stats, a balanced roster, smart cap use, minimal penalties, and a little luck from the final variance.
