NBA All-Star Break: FSL and Joust Running Contests
Jeremy Lin vs. the Heat is now complete and if you don’t follow the NHL, it’s Friday and “you ain’t got sh*t to do!” Forgive me for quoting the 1995 cult-classic movie, but that’s exactly how I feel right now. What to do now that the All-Star break is upon us? Do you feel the same way? Don’t fret! A couple Daily Fantasy sites have stepped up to the plate (er, free throw line) to provide us NBA-heads some action during the four-day long All-Star break! Here’s the run-down of how to get your Daily Fantasy Fix during the NBA All-Star Break.
Fantasy Sports Live – Daily Fantasy NBA All-Star Break Contests
After stepping up to the plate for the Super Bowl, Blinders and FSL have delivered yet again for the Daily Fantasy downtime. Here is the scoop on the contests, directly from Blinders thread in our forums :
All-Star Fantasy Basketball Leagues now available at FSL.
Leagues are up now for the Rising Stars Challenge and NBA All-Star Game. You will need to enter by Friday, as the leagues go off at 9PM est. We doubled Blake Griffin cost to make up for him playing in both games. If you are new to FSL, keep in mind that we do not require complete rosters. We bumped up the team cap levels a bit, but you may want to drop a roster spot if needed, as the players are pretty expensive. Thanks for all the feedback here at RG that made this happen.
If you’re not yet a member of FSL, make sure to check out our Fantasy Sports Live Review for all the info and an up to $30 instant deposit bonus when you join!
Daily Joust – Daily Fantasy NBA All Star Break Games
