Understanding Fantasy Basketball Scoring at Celestial League

Welcome to the Balls System page at Celestial League! Here, you’ll learn how we score every move on the court and how to maximize your team’s performance to dominate the fantasy basketball world. Understanding the scoring system is essential to crafting a winning team, so let’s dive into how the points are awarded and subtracted based on player performance.

How the Balls System Works

In Celestial League, we use a unique Balls System to assign fantasy points to players based on their real-life performances in NBA games. Each action on the court — from scoring points to making assists — adds or subtracts from your fantasy basketball score. Let’s break it down:

Points Scoring

Your players can earn positive points for various actions. Here’s how the points are awarded:

• Field Goals Made (2 Points): Each time a player successfully makes a shot from the field, they earn +2 points.
• Three-Pointers Made (3 Points): Successful three-pointers earn a player +3 points.
• Free Throws Made (1 Point): Every time a player makes a free throw, they earn +1 point.
• Assists (1.5 Points): Helping a teammate score earns +1.5 points.
• Rebounds (1 Point): Grab a rebound? That’s +1 point.
• Steals (2 Points): A steal on the court earns +2 points for your player.
• Blocks (2 Points): When a player blocks an opponent’s shot, it’s worth +2 points.
• Turnovers (-1 Point): Every time a player commits a turnover, you lose -1 point.
• Personal Fouls (-0.5 Points): A personal foul will cost your player -0.5 points.

Point Deductions

But it’s not just about adding points — bad performances can hurt your score. Here’s where you might lose some fantasy points:

• Missed Field Goals (-1 Point): For every missed shot from the field, you lose -1 point.
• Missed Three-Pointers (-1 Point): Missing a three-pointer? That’s -1 point taken off your score.
• Missed Free Throws (-0.5 Points): Missed free throws result in -0.5 points subtracted.
• Turnovers (-1 Point): Committing turnovers can negatively affect your score with -1 point for each one.
• Personal Fouls (-0.5 Points): Fouls will cost you -0.5 points each time your player commits one.

Bonus Points

We love rewarding excellent performance! Certain milestones earn bonus points to help boost your fantasy team’s chances of winning:

• Double-Double (3 Points): If a player records a double-double (10 or more in two statistical categories like points and rebounds), they earn +3 bonus points.
• Triple-Double (5 Points): A triple-double (10+ points, rebounds, and assists) gets your player +5 bonus points.
• 30+ Points Scored (2 Points): If your player scores 30 or more points in a game, they earn +2 points.

The Impact of the Balls System on Strategy

• Understanding how to manage your team’s scoring is crucial to fantasy success. Here’s how you can maximize your chances of winning:
• Focus on High-Scoring Players: Players who make a lot of three-pointers, assists, and rebounds will accumulate points quickly.
• Avoid Turnovers and Fouls: Be mindful of players who tend to rack up turnovers or personal fouls — these can take away precious points.
• Track Player Performance: Use the system to track your players’ strengths. For example, if a player is known for being a solid rebounder, they could be a valuable addition to your team to maximize your points.

Our Balls System is designed to create a dynamic, competitive environment where each player’s actions truly impact your success.
