Weekly NBA fantasy matchup planner for category leagues
A free weekly matchup planner for head-to-head category leagues. See how your matchup ends before the week does: every category projected, how many games each team has left, and how close each category is.
Each player's games left come from his NBA team's schedule, and the stats already banked from his box scores this week. His projection times his remaining games is added to those stats. The final-week prediction shows both teams in every category and highlights who is winning it.
Every team shows its games this week: played so far, left to play and the two together. A game played moves from left to played, so the total holds, and a team with more games left can still win a category it trails today.
The margin row shows the gap in every category, percentages included, coloured on the site's value scale: green where you lead, yellow where the two teams are within 10% of each other (in FG% within 0.8 points, in FT% within 2), red where you trail. It reads from your side: plus where you lead, minus where you trail — and in turnovers, where fewer wins, having fewer is the plus.
Add a streamer or drop a player and watch the categories and the games count change, to decide which adds and starts win you the week. Any number can be typed over, and Reset to automatic brings back the schedule and box scores.
Connect an ESPN or Fantrax league and the planner fills both teams from your matchup: your opponent, both rosters and the score so far. On ESPN each day counts that day’s roster, so a player you drop or pick up counts only on the days he is yours, and a game moves from left to played as it tips off. Leagues sync every hour, or press Sync now. Move to next week to see who you face, or back to see how a week finished.
Pick a later day of the running week to see your matchup as if the days before it were over: their games count as played at each player’s projection, shown apart from the actual stats, and each team lists its roster from that day on. The week’s totals and the final prediction stay the same.
No. Add the players by hand and their games and stats so far fill in automatically. With an ESPN or Fantrax league connected, both teams come from your matchup, week by week, with the score so far — summed from box scores on Fantrax, which shares none.
From projected makes and attempts, so the totals add up exactly to the players listed.
Yes. It needs no account and no payment. An account is only needed to connect your own league.
From the NBA schedule: each player's team's games from the day you plan from to the end of the week. Games before that day count as played, from box scores that update every morning.
Monday to Sunday, the week most platforms score. With a league connected it uses your league's own weeks, so the first starts on opening night and a playoff round can run two weeks or more.
It is built for category leagues, head-to-head and rotisserie. A points league is planned on the nine standard categories, not on your league's point settings.
Every hour on its own, and at once when you press Sync now. ESPN’s score is read live; Fantrax shares none, so its stats so far come from box scores each morning.
