MIES (Switzerland) - The first-ever FIBA SMART Fantasy League is live, just in time for the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2027 Qualifiers.
Fans around the world can now step into the coach's seat and build their ultimate national team lineup, featuring players from the World Cup Qualifiers.
SMART Fantasy League participants will draft their guards, forwards, and centers, manage their salary cap, and select a SMART Captain and an X-Factor to maximize their team's potential.
They can win Nike Gift Cards worth up to USD 200 per World Cup Window, as players earn Fantasy Points based on their real FIBA Efficiency Rating (EFF), with additional bonuses for standout performances.
Lineups can be set before each game day, right up until tip-off, with the flexibility to make bench adjustments between games in pursuit of the perfect selection.
The competition features four separate Fantasy Leagues - one for each region: Africa, Americas, Asia/Oceania, and Europe - giving fans the chance to compete regionally or participate in multiple leagues simultaneously.
Fans can compete solo or take on friends by creating or joining leagues:
Create a league: Give it a name, choose your starting game day, and invite your crew. Join a public league: Open to all fans worldwide. Join a private league: Challenge your inner circle in an exclusive competition.
Leaderboards update in real time, showing both players total score and performance on the latest game day - so they'll always know where they stand.
