Get ready for the NBA Playoffs with Dunkest NBA Fantasy Basketball! The post-season formula is designed to make the playoffs even more exciting for fans who play.
Wondering what happens to your fantasy teams during the playoffs? Here are the essential points that you need to know:
1) From Regular Season to Playoffs
Dunkest’s NBA Fantasy Basketball considers the Regular Season and Playoffs as two separate phases of the season. Within the game, you have to select two options:
Based on your selection, here’s what happens:
- Regular Season: You can check your scores and position in the various leagues throughout the regular season.
- Playoffs: You can create and manage your fantasy teams and leagues for the post-season.
2) A New Beginning
With the Post Season, everything starts again from the beginning:
- Fantasy Teams keep existing with the same name but you have to choose the entire roster again as it will be “reset”.
- PROMOTION! All fantasy teams created between April 10 and 13 will immediately get 3 free wildcards (instead of 1).
- The credit budget is back to 95 credits (105 for those who renew the purchase of the “MVP” package).
- Each fantasy team can have a maximum of 6 players of the same team.
- Player ratings will be adjusted based on the budget available and their expected performance.
3) What About My Leagues?
Classic Leagues and Draft Leagues are no exception for the new beginning:
- The General and Country Private Classic Leagues will be reset and all fantasy teams restart from 0 points.
- Private Classic Leagues have to be recreated.
4) Playoffs Calendar
The frequency of matches causes the fantasy basketball schedule to change slightly during the Playoffs:
- Each Matchday is shorter and lasts an average of 2 Turns, but sometimes only includes 1 Turn.
- At the end of each Matchday, you can trade players to improve your team.
- All matches of the Playoffs will count towards scoring.
IMPORTANT: The Playoffs Matchday 1 calendar will initially be “fictitious” until the official dates are available.
5) Advantages
The game advantages purchased during the Regular Season are valid until the end of the same.
During the Playoffs, you need to make a new purchase except for the “Season Pass” option, which is valid for Regular Season & Playoffs.
