GET YOUR GAME ON: Starting a Season

Using the Fantasy Draft

If you really want to start your season from scratch, set the Fantasy
Draft option on the Gameplay Settings Menu to Yes. This will let you
go through twelve draft rounds, trying to get your hands on the
sickest ballers in the league. If you’re not sure who to pick, press 

X

to get a hint. Or, once you’ve gotten your first picks out of the
way, press 

Y

 to have the rest of the draft automatically completed

for you.

Note: 

The Fantasy Draft option is available on the Gameplay Settings

Menu only after you enter Season mode. It will not appear on the
Gameplay Settings Menu if you make any other selection from the
Main Menu.

Making Good Management Decisions

• Manage your roster throughout the season. Keep your good players

on the active roster, and switch your less experienced or hurt
players over to the inactive one. (See pg. 19).

• Have multiple players available for each position. That way, if a key

player suffers an injury, you’ll have a substitute ready to step up.

• Release players if they aren’t contributing, and check out the free

agent list often.
