Anyone know anything about fantasy basketball?

Question

If u have a waiver designation of 1 and someone else has a waiver designation of 12....and both claim a player, who gets the player? 1 or 12?

Answer 1

The player with the 1 has first option followed down the line to 12. If 1 uses his waiver option he becomes number 12 and everyone moves up 1 slot. So if you have 1 use it very wisely, make sure you are getting an upper tier player or down the road you will see someone get frustrated with a really good player and you will have no shot at getting him. If you are number 12 then make claims every time you think a guy can help and is a better option than what you have, you wont get a lot of them but you might as well try.

Answer 2

The waiver designation was initially determined based on who drafted first in your league. This would give them the 12 ranking while the one who drafted last gets the first waiver opportunity.

To answer your question, when a player is put on waivers (which means he was dropped from his previous team's lineup), anyone can try to add him to their teams. So lets say all the team managers would try to add him to their teams, this would bring about a "waiver request" that would be pending till the day that the player who was put on waiver's "clears waivers" and becomes a free agent.

The team with the highest waiver priority would get the said player (waiver 1) even if all the team managers put up a request. When this happens, the player's whose waiver designation was one, becomes 12. 12 becomes 11, and so on.

Hope this helps.
