Do not remove the Today's Game column
On 11/20/2024, the column of today's game (or whatever it was called) is gone. If the player has game it shows under player's name. What's left are the not important Ranking and Fantasy columns. It is much more difficult to see if a player has the game with the new format.
The Ranking column doesn't even work (the current ranking is just a -). The Fantasy column is useless (%Start %ROS), these info doesn't matter anymore because players is already on your team.
Please don't implement changes to make your product worse. Easily to see if a player has game…
Thanks for your feedback, I will pass that on to our product team. This information can now be found underneath the player's name.

Fantasy Basketball Watchlist page has no functionality
Watchlist tool has no basic options and looks like an unfinished build. Stuck on a past week (view) and only shows ‘Overview’ but doesn’t actually provide the overview mode (very cool feature of yahoo’s new high score game). Also the stats columns are not sortable, a basic tool which is another clue that this page was abandoned and incomplete. Please fix, it’s a very important tool for your product. Thanks!
Thank you for your feedback! Your thoughts and suggestions are extremely valuable to us which is why we've passed your comments along to our team. We're committed to continuously improving your fantasy experience and appreciate your continued support.

If you make the app available in Brazil, it would be perfect.
Many Brazilian users play this game; however, we are not able to download the app, which creates a poor user experience. Accessing the website daily via mobile is quite inconvenient. Would it be possible to make the app available on iOS and Android for users in Brazil?
Hey Gustavo,
At this time, the Yahoo Fantasy app can no longer be downloaded on Android devices in select countries. The app can only be downloaded in the United States, Canada, the Philippines, Mexico, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany, Turkey, and Spain.
Yahoo Fantasy can continue to be enjoyed on many other platforms.

In a league I did not setup or agree to?
Someone or Yahoo set up a Basketball team for me and I want to delete it. I did not sign up for this or selected it in anyway. How do I delete it from my profile and how was it setup in the first [place?
The league that you signed up for is referred to as an "Instant Draft." This means that you're automatically placed in a Public league once you enter the draft lobby. Once the draft is over, it's not possible for you or Yahoo to remove or transfer your team from the league.
You may have accidentally joined this league without realizing. Yahoo will not place you into a league without you doing it. You may have unknowingly clicked on a banner at the bottom of the app that showed that said "Draft Now".
We apologize that we can't be of more assistance, but do know that you're not obligated to visit the team pages for the entirety of the season. You can disable email notifications (https://help.yahoo.com/kb/edit-yahoo-fantasy-team-yahoo-account-info-sln6128.html) for your team if you'd like. In the Yahoo Fantasy app, you can either hide your league from the home screen if you are using…

Fantasy Basketball, player ruining our league
There is a player ruining our league. League ID = 219126. $50 Head to Head
'Ariel's Remarkable Team' is blatantly ruining the integrity of this league.
First he trades Lebron James and Kawahi Leonard for Scottie Barnes, which I protested and Yahoo allowed it ....why, I don't know why that was allowed to go through.
Then 'Ariel's Remarkable Team' drops Paul George and Deandre Ayton.
Now, 'Ariel's Remarkable Team' is giving up Barnes, Curry and Shai Alexander for one player, Doncic in a trade proposal. This is absurd and I hope Yahoo does the right thing.

On desktop, we should also see the remaining adds of other managers.
On desktop, we should also see the remaining adds of other managers. At the moment, we can see our own remaining adds but when viewing other managers' teams, we can't see how many adds they have left.
Hi PJ,
We will pass along your feedback to our product team.
Managers can view the Recent Transactions Log for the league to see how many adds a manager has made in a week to determine how many they have left.

Fantasy Basketball IR Block
Hi there,
I keep getting Error #845 whenever I try to propose a trade. The issue is that one of my players is no longer injured but is still sitting in my IR slot, and Yahoo is blocking me from making trades, which is extremely limiting and—frankly—ridiculous.
I am the commissioner of League ID 1239, and this needs to be fixed. There is no competitive advantage here; it is simply preventing normal league operations.
We should be able to:
Propose trades even if we temporarily have a player on IR
Make “2-for-1” trades (two players for one), which would immediately…

Revert to season rankings
Pos rank doesn’t help
Season rank was betterHi Marco,
There is a plan to bring back the season rank instead of the position rank, but we do not have an estimated date for when this change will take place. You should still be able to view the season rank through the Research Assistant.

High Score League- I dropped a player of mine on sunday night for monday's games and it removed his score from the current week
I dropped my player on Sunday night for Monday's games, and it removed his score from my lineup for the current week, literally causing me to lose. With his points, I had won the week.
I did this via the app, and there was no warning message, etc telling me I'd lose his points for that week. He didn't play on Sunday and all the remaining games were done for the week, so I was picking up a replacement for Monday's games only.
This seems like a glitch to me, as you should definitely not lose points for that week…

Add visibility of likes and dislikes within the player chat profile
Hey Yahoo Fantasy team, I’d love to see some improvements to the player chat profile section because having to scroll all the way down just to find my own comments is really annoying. It would be great if our chat progile showed likes/dislikes on each comment, allowed replies or threaded conversations, and made it easier to quickly view my own posts without digging through everything. A cleaner, more organized layout would make the whole chat experience way more user-friendly. Thanks for considering it!

Open android access in New Zealand
Hi - I'm currently in a fantasy basketball league, totally New Zealand based league. The fantasy sports app is available on iphones, but not on android phones in New Zealand. This is super frustrating, myself and other android users have to utilise the website to manage our teams. I'm looking at alternative ways to get our fantasy basketball fix including moving to ESPN app (which is available here).
Would love it if you could activate the android version for New Zealand.Hi Adam,

Fantast basketball
This league makes no sense. Every time I try to adjust my lineup I lose the points of the player being replaced. I am not sure why I have a bench if I can't use them
Hi Henry,
It sounds like you are in a High Score fantasy league. You can learn more about this type of scoring league at https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN37162.html.

Commissioner should be able to edit a lineup after the game has started
Have found myself in countless situations where this was needed. If for whatever reason there is a mega emergency and someone is unable to set a lineup (ie: hospital, engagement, work, life) we give them permission to text in the chat (before any of the games have started) that if player x doesn't play then he would like to start player y. This can help ensure that if someone misses a time for an important reason That they fairly knew who they would start had they had the opportunity. The problem is that while this is nice theoretically, yahoo only…

Why does it say no games? I lost a game because of the confusion and a guy going OUT before the game. These are PAID LEAGUES. You're making money on people and the app is failing. Thanks a lot

Playoff Teams
There should be an option to do an odd number of teams with a bye for fantasy playoffs. For example 7 teams, 1st place would get a bye then the other 6 would play 3 matchups. By round 2 you're back to 4 teams like any other playoff.

Daily Roster Set - App vs Non-App
I have multiple league members saying they are setting their roster using the "start active players" button and when they check a few hours later - they are not on their active roster. When they use a desktop/laptop this seems to be fine. However, using the mobile app (two different users on different devices - one ipad, one droid) are having the same issue.
Once you enable Start Active Players, it will reset if you add, drop, or trade any players. If these managers are not making any transactions after they use Start Active Players and their starting lineups are not set correctly, please have them contact our support team directly via https://help.yahoo.com/kb/fantasy-basketball? >> Contact Us.

Two-for-one trade bug: managers can void trades by adding/activating players after acceptance.Please auto-adjust spots to ensure fair trades
There’s an ongoing issue with two-for-one (or more) trades in Yahoo Fantasy Basketball that allows one manager to void an accepted trade. For example, when a manager is trading away one player and receiving two, they can cancel the trade after acceptance by either adding a free agent or activating someone from their IR spot before the trade processes, which leaves no open roster slot. Yahoo then automatically rejects the trade due to a full roster, even though it had already been agreed upon by both parties.
In all other cases, Yahoo prevents roster moves that would interfere with an…
