How to Play
Basketball
Creating your team
Every basketball team you create on Dream11 has to have 8 players, of which a maximum of 5 players can be from any one team playing the real-life match.
Player Combinations
Your Dream11 can have different combinations of players, but has to be within the 100 credit cap and must qualify the following team selection criteria:
| Player Type | Min | Max |
|---|---|---|
| Point Guard | 1 | 4 |
| Shooting Guard | 1 | 4 |
| Small Forward | 1 | 4 |
| Power Forward | 1 | 4 |
| Center | 1 | 4 |
Star Player and Pro Player Points
Once you have selected your 8 players, you will have to assign a Star Player and a Pro Player for your team.
The Star Player will give you 2x points scored by them in the actual match.
Your Pro Player will give you 1.5x points scored by them in the actual match.
The Star Player By (% SP By) and Pro Player By (% PP By) stats help you understand how other players have chosen their teams.
Choose popular picks as your Star Player and Pro Player, or find a differential to score big against your competition.

Other Important Points
- Any event during overtime will be considered for awarding fantasy points.
- A player who has been transferred from one team to the other might still be available for selection for his older team until the next scheduled team update on Dream11. However, no points will be attributed to the player in such a situation.
-
Once a match has been marked as completed and winners have been declared, no further adjustments will be made to the points awarded. Points awarded for a LIVE game will be subject to change only when the match status is “In Progress” or “In Review”.
