Hi! As we are passionate Yahoo Fantasy Basketball players for years, we want to play the game as realistic as possible. So, we kindly request you to check your possibilities to let us play in 30-team leagues. Currently, it is only allowed to play in max 20 team leagues.

By enabling this feature, we, as 30 different players will be able to get our team names from NBA and manage our teams like NBA franchises with similar roster size.

As this season has started our request is for the following seasons. We believe that you can easily set mentioned feature in order to make Fantasy Basketball leagues better and more realistic.

Thank you,
Leo

i remember reading that smack was coming back but am seeing no evidence on the 2018-19 league pages... any information as to what is happening there??

with regard to the messenger feature, we rarely use it... that just feels like a text message somehow, which i can easily do on my cell phone. not the same. what we miss is being able to comment directly on the matchup pages! always seemed to liven things up when it felt like everyone was engaged & paying attention to each other's teams... made for a HUGE difference in involvement

yahoo team- we appreciate the improvements in the stat accumulation dept, but please please consider enhancing that interpersonal aspect! more places in which to communicate... seems easy from a coding standpoint & is so very beneficial to the liveliness of leagues

THANKS

With the vast unpredictability and imbalance in the NBA season schedule, the number of players a certain fantasy team has playing throughout the week can have a very significant impact on the outcome of that week. I think a weekly start limit option needs to be seriously considered. Similar to the weekly start limit for starting pitchers in fantasy baseball. If you set the limit at, let's say, 40 or 42 starts per week, this guarantees that each team will have the same number of players playing for the week, and benching one of their worst players once or twice in a week shouldn't bother anyone. It is an easy fix for an important problem. And adding it as just an option for commissioners to enable or not, doesn't force it on leagues unwilling to add this feature.

We set our league to "Daily - Today" roster changes this year, however I noticed a potential flaw and had a suggestion that could make it better.

During one game, I wanted to drop a player who had already played that night for a hot waiver wire pickup, however I couldn't do so since the guy I wanted to drop had already played that night. I had no bench players to drop and another team came up and scooped him up.

Why not make it so that you can drop a player in your lineup whom has already played, however the change does not go into effect until the next day? If he hasn't played, the change goes into effect immediately.

IMO this would be the best of both worlds.

I am sure that everyone here can appreciate the function of a mock draft. It lets us prepare for the real deal, but I find one major flaw in this system. It does not actually give a real life mock draft and this is mainly caused the by the large number of people leaving the draft. There is such an abundance of mock drafts happening every few minutes (not a bad thing) that a large number of people tend to leave mid draft if their draft is not going their way. But in reality that is going to happen in a real draft situation. I hope that there is a way that you can limit this from happening and issue some sort of penalty for leaving the draft or limiting them from joining another draft until the one that they are in is finished. I feel like that would help people to stay within the draft until it is finished.

Best Regards,
Dan

P.S. Can you add the standings function in mobile draft?
