Fantasy Basketball question

jr24ai3 · 12-16-2011, 11:02 PM

I'm joining a H2H league for the 1st time this year. I have only done fantasy football in the past which was easy since all players had only 1 game/week. What is the strategy in fantasy basketball since some players will play 4 games a week while others may only play 3? It is a 12 team league, and you have 7 starters and 5 on your bench.

I would assume you would always start at least your top 2-3 players every week. So for the other 4-5 starters, do you just play the guys with the most games if all things are equal? Is there ever a time other than injury when you should bench one of your top 3 picks?

Always maximize games played and never bench studs (by studs I mean LeBron, Durant, Rose, etc)
