Injury status should not change from out to questionable
I have Josh hart he was just out Saturday. He is not questionable the next day. He doesn’t even play till Tuesday. Needs to be fixed
Thank you for your feedback regarding injury status designations. Hart has not been ruled out for his next game. If he does get ruled out, his status will then be updated to Out.
Basketball uses the IL roster position:
- Eligible designations - Out (O) or Out For Season (OFS).
- Ineligible designations - Probable (P), Questionable (Q), and Doubtful (D).
How long does a player retain the Out designation?
- Out - When the NBA designates a player as Out, he stays IL-eligible until the next morning. This status will be held until after nightly transactions have been processed.
- Out for 3+ games - The player stays IL-eligible until he returns to play. Games are counted starting after the game the player was injured in.
- Out For Season (OFS) - Will not play again in the current season.

Bring IL+ back or allow player with Q and D tags to remain in IL.
As im sure you know, the change around the IL roster spot has infuriated many of us long term Yahoo Basketball users. The deletion of IL+ was a bad move. But this constant updating players who are O to Q or D, days before their next game and limiting roster moves with them in IL is ridiculous. I have not heard of a single user enjoying this change. Weve had leagues for almost 20 years. Have multiple Yahoo plus users over the years. And I cant even amend the league I commissioned to allow for Q or D eligibility? No…
Thank you for your feedback regarding adding IL+ back to allow players with Q and D tags to remain in IL. We will pass it along to our team!

Bring back rank stats in the app
On the player details popup, why did you remove the Ranks for Last 7, 14, 30, and Season to date (as well as previous seasons)? That is a critical consideration when assessing who to pickup. Additionally, why don’t the available views on the App match what you can see on the website via desktop? ( For instance the Rank view)
Thank you for your feedback regarding bringing back ranks in the app. We are working to add ranks back as soon as possible!

Don’t change players status
Don’t change players status until it’s confirmed. O -> Q should not make a player ineligible to be on the IL
If a player sits a game, they should remain IL eligible until they are confirmed HEALTHY!!! Or bring back IL+
Awful experience for users and I’m sure you’re getting this feedback from everyone. Do something or people are never using your app again

Yaxel lendeborg
Yaxel on the warriors need center eligibility as he plays point center for the team. Same position as draymond green with more Rebs
Thank you for your feedback regarding Yaxel Lendeborg's position eligibility. Position eligibility is determined by a combination of box score data, past performance, outside websites that track positional data, and a few of our trusted reporters. Adding or changing position eligibility is rare, however certain trends may result in updating a player's eligibility. We'll pass your feedback regarding Lendeborg along to our team!
Custom Position Eligibility
Commissioners can use this tool to award players position eligibility that they haven't earned by Yahoo Fantasy's standards yet. Keep in mind, this tool will only allow commissioners to add positions to a player's eligibility, not remove or edit them.
- Select your league.
- Click the Commissioner tab.
- Click the Rosters & Scoring tab.
- Click Custom Position Eligibility

Bring back the pop up windows for player information
Prior to a recent update, I was able to click on the little blue letter icon next to a players name, and a popup window would appear with player stats and information. The recent update has made this process more cumbersome and clunky by opening a new tab. Bring back the popup window, it was a MUCH better user experience - quicker and more efficient!
Thank you,
EdWe appreciate your patience while we looked into this issue with the layout on the desktop site. We are happy to report that our engineers have fixed the problem.

You changed the UI so I cannot click on the little news box next to my players name to check their blurb.
Why did you make the UI worse in every way? myteam is now a drop down list to swap? It takes me to a new page when i click on the little text bubble?
What kind of monster did that. Tell them that it wont bring more traffic to your awful 'news' page because people are going to stop clicking it entirely.

Make comments clickable in Fantasy Chat Profile
When viewing my comment history in Yahoo Fantasy, I can’t click on a comment to return to its original player discussion. This makes it nearly impossible to check replies and reactions, especially when I’ve commented under dozens of different players. Please make past comments clickable so they take us directly to the original thread. Notifications for replies would also be a great addition!

Different colors for status tags
Also, since "Q" (questionable), "P" (probable) and "D" (doutbful)are not eligible for IL, can you just make those letters a different color, like Orange? Because the letters are small and Red just like "O" for out, it's harder to distinguish. A different color would make it a lot easier to identify.

The new Injury status designation does not work for fantasy basketball.
Please bring back the IL+ or come up with a better solution. ie Keep players tagged as OUT until the next team injury report comes out. Or maybe make it so you can't go weeks in advance and set your lineup. Whatever your lineup is today is what it is tomorrow. Thanks for fixing this!
Thank you for your feedback regarding injury designations. Players listed as Out now keep their Out designation until nightly transactions process, even if their official status changes after the game. Players out 3+ games or Out For Season stay eligible until they return. See our help article for full details.

Search players by date
i have two issues i can't solve - You can't search for players playing past tomorrow. that is the limit. You can see the schedule but that is not helpful to pull up specific criteria.
Example - its Thursday and i want to see only the available players playing on Sunday. There is no way to do that.Another issue in the same category is to search all players that are already on teams playing today or on a specific day. This is helpful to see who may be injured that day so you can pick up the player that…

Add the numerator/denominator when you hover the FG% and FT%
Allow us to view our FG% and FT% in terms of shots taken by hovering over the percentage. This information is visible in the mobile app and this small addition would be a nice, simple QOL addition
