FAQs

1. What does this calculator project?

It projects fantasy points per game and total points across the selected number of games. It also estimates floor, ceiling, salary value, and risk-adjusted availability.

2. Can I use custom league scoring?

Yes. Every major scoring component is editable, including points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, made threes, and achievement bonuses.

3. Why do projected minutes matter so much?

Minutes drive opportunity. The calculator scales the base fantasy output by comparing projected minutes against the player’s normal average workload.

4. What do pace and matchup multipliers represent?

Pace estimates possession volume, while matchup reflects opponent difficulty. Values above 100 increase projection, and values below 100 reduce it.

5. How is risk handled here?

Injury risk and blowout risk reduce the final projection. Volatility controls the spread between the floor and ceiling estimates.

6. Is this better for daily or season fantasy?

It works for both. Daily players may focus on salary value and matchup, while season players may prioritize weekly totals and availability-adjusted games.

7. What does value per 1k salary mean?

It shows how many projected fantasy points a player returns for each 1,000 units of salary. Higher values generally indicate stronger cap efficiency.

8. Should I trust one projection alone?

No. Use this tool as a structured estimate, then compare news, rotations, opponent injuries, and late lineup changes before locking decisions.
