Get ready for the 2025 Fantasy Women's Basketball season with our comprehensive guide. Learn scoring, drafting strategies, and tips to dominate your league.

How to Play Fantasy Women's Basketball

The excitement is building as Fantasy Women's Basketball enters its fourth year in 2025. Following a thrilling season last year, we anticipate even more action and surprises this season. WNBA stars like A'ja Wilson, Napheesa Collier, and Caitlin Clark are poised to lead the fantasy charts, making it a perfect time to dive into this engaging game.

Understanding the Scoring System

Fantasy Women's Basketball operates on a points-based, head-to-head format, culminating in an end-of-season playoff. Here’s how points are allocated:

  • Point = 1 Fantasy point (FP) (e.g., a 2-point shot = 2 FP)
  • Rebound = 1 FP
  • Assist = 1 FP
  • Made 3-pointer = 1 FP (e.g., a 3-point shot = 3 FP + 1 bonus FP = 4 total FP)
  • Steal = 2 FP
  • Block = 2 FP

Points, rebounds, and assists are high-volume categories, each earning one fantasy point. Steals and blocks are rarer, thus worth double. Made 3-pointers offer a bonus point, encouraging diverse player rosters.

Key Players to Watch

  • A’ja Wilson led in points and blocks last season, averaging 50.4 FP/G.
  • Napheesa Collier ranked top-10 in multiple categories, with 41.0 FP/G.
  • Caitlin Clark excelled in assists and 3-pointers, achieving 40.4 FP/G.

Drafting Your Team

The cornerstone of fantasy success is a solid draft. Managers can choose from several draft methods:

  • Snake Draft: Rotating order each round.
  • Salary Cap Draft: Managers bid within a budget.
  • Autopick: Automated player selection.
  • Offline Draft: Manual drafting and input.

Strategies for Winning

Stay active by adjusting your lineup, managing trades, and utilizing the injured reserve to optimize your team’s performance throughout the season.
