How to stream in a daily-lineup league

Win more weeks by using every lineup spot, every night.

In a daily-lineup league the team with the most games played usually wins the week. Streaming - picking up a free agent for the nights he plays and dropping him after - is the simplest edge there is.

1. Count the games, not just the averages

A 28-point-per-game player with four games beats a 35-point player with two. Open the Planner and look at "games left" for your roster and for free agents.

2. Fill the light nights

Monday, Thursday and Sunday often have fewer NBA games. The Planner's day strip shows how many of your players play each night - when it drops below your starting spots, that's the night to stream.

3. Don't stream your stars

Keep your top six or seven players and rotate the last two or three spots. Use the trade analyser before dropping anyone good.

4. Watch your weekly add limit

Many leagues cap adds per week. Plan Monday's moves so you still have adds for the weekend.

5. Check injuries before tip-off

Turn on injury alerts in 🔔 so you hear about late scratches in time to swap a player in.
