Same platform,
basketball season.

NuroPicks NBA Fantasy is the same escrow-backed, SHAP-explained platform your NFL league already runs on - tuned for 82-game NBA seasons, categorical scoring, and nightly box scores. Your wallet carries over. Your roster doesn't sleep when football ends.

Skill-based fantasy. No spam. One launch email when leagues open.

Built for NBA, not retrofitted

SAME ESCROW, NEW SPORT
🔒

NFL managers keep their buy-in flow

Your NuroPicks wallet carries over. No new KYC, no new deposit method. Fund an NBA league in two taps and keep your NFL roster active at the same time.

CATEGORICAL AI, NOT POINTS-ONLY
🧠

Trade advice that understands 9-cat

"You give up 3PM and gain REB + STL - good if you're weak in those categories." Our NBA trade advisor branches on scoring mode so a 9-cat roto trade isn't graded like a points swap.

NIGHTLY GAMES, LIVE STATS
🏀

Every tip-off, tracked in real time

NBA plays 4-6 nights a week. Our live poller hits every box score every 15 minutes during game windows so your matchup score updates while the games are still going.

Pick your scoring religion

NBA fantasy has four distinct scoring vocabularies. We support all of them.

POINTS ROTO

Points Roto (default)

DraftKings-style. Each stat has a weight, add them up, highest weekly total wins. Best for first-time NBA managers.

9-CATEGORY

9-Category Roto

Classic. Win or lose each of PTS, REB, AST, STL, BLK, 3PM, FG%, FT%, and TO (inverse). The purest test of roster construction.

8-CATEGORY

8-Category

9-cat minus turnovers. Favors high-volume scorers who cough it up sometimes. The 'fun' variant.

H2H POINTS

Head-to-Head Points

Weekly bracket-style matchups, points roto under the hood. Closest cousin to NFL for NFL-managers making the jump.

Why NFL managers love NBA

01

Fantasy plus betting edges carry over

Our NBA projections feed the same player-prop edge engine that drives NuroPicks main. If Jayson Tatum is a fantasy buy, he's probably also a value on points-over tonight.

02

Injury-aware lineup nudges

We track load management and DNP-rest separately from true injuries. Starters sat on the back of a back-to-back aren't flagged as hurt - they're flagged as predictable, which is a sharper signal.

03

Year-round retention, finally

Most fantasy managers bounce Feb 1 when the NFL ends. NBA fantasy takes you to April (regular season), June (playoffs bracket pools), and keeps the community alive until August training camp.
