As mentioned, this is an NBA freeroll similar to the one BuzzDraft runs on their site daily, except this one is for a $150 prize pool. One you’ve signed up for your account and clicked on the freeroll link, you’ll draft a Fantasy team of 10 players using a $100,000 salary cap. Then you can watch your team scores update in realtime as the NBA games progress on Friday in the My Challenges section of the website.

Here are a couple of things to watch for on a busy Friday night (11 games) in the NBA to help you pick your team:

And because it’s so hard to find a stud shortstop, he’s easily a top 10 pick in all formats. In fact, he’ll likely go in the top five of almost every draft. Thirty dingers, 100 RBI and a .300 BA out of your shortstop? Sign me up for some of that. I’m also very bullish on the batting eye improvements Tulowitzki made last year. The Rox will have another fine offensive lineup this year, and Tulo will be a huge reason why. more

Of course, you’ve also got those wonderful demon arms, which are mapped to the shoulder buttons. The right is used in conjunction with the right analog stick for melee strikes while the left is reserved for grabbing objects (poles, doors, people, etc.) and whipping them across the screen. Suspended enemies can also be executed in a variety of brutal and satisfying ways. It starts off pretty basic, but as you gather dark essence, new moves can be purchased. Eventually you’ll have a different type of execution for each face button — one restores, another replenishes ammo and so on. Beyond just being visually cool, there is some element of strategy involved as you can address various needs with the executions. more

The goal is to show a little love to some players on the waiver wire that usually do not receive any. Sometimes, it’s not easy in Fantasy leagues to navigate through the murk and mire of the dog days. Week 18 is coming up for the GMs out there, so this exercise becomes even more crucial as we hit the home stretch. more

Watson has started two of the past three games for Rose, and has seen a general uptick in minutes thanks to Rose’s condition – and the fact that even when Rose has been healthy, the Bulls have been blowing out opponents, giving extra PT to all the bench players. In 25 minutes of action Friday, Watson shot it decently (3-for-7), but put some nice peripherals with five assists, four steals and three boards. On Monday, he came through with a double-double, his first since he was a Warrior. Rose remains day-to-day, giving Watson a small window to put up big numbers. more
