Scoring System
Advanced metrics for the ultimate tactician.
The LuxorLot Point System
Our scoring system is intricately designed to reward true basketball efficiency and heavily punish sloppy, detrimental play. Unlike basic fantasy leagues that only look at cumulative counting stats (like total points scored), our proprietary algorithm closely mirrors actual on-court value and advanced analytics. If a player scores 30 points but takes 35 shots and turns the ball over 8 times to do it, they will not be rewarded as highly as a player who scores 20 points on incredibly efficient shooting with zero turnovers.
| Action | Points Awarded |
|---|---|
| Point Scored (PTS) | 1.0 |
| Total Rebound (TRB) | 1.2 |
| Assist (AST) | 1.5 |
| Steal (STL) | 3.0 |
| Block (BLK) | 3.0 |
| Turnover (TOV) | -1.5 |
| 3-Point Field Goal Made (3PM) | +0.5 (Bonus on top of points) |
| Double-Double (DD2) | +2.0 |
| Triple-Double (TD3) | +5.0 |
Advanced Efficiency Modifiers (Custom Leagues Only)
In custom private leagues, commissioners have the option to enable advanced efficiency scoring modifiers. This creates the ultimate challenge for hardcore fantasy managers. The modifiers are designed to perfectly balance the value of volume shooters against highly efficient role players:
- Field Goal Attempt (FGA): -0.5 pts (Every shot taken penalizes the player)
- Field Goal Made (FGM): +1.0 pts (Results in a net +0.5 for making the shot, and a -0.5 for missing)
- Free Throw Attempt (FTA): -0.5 pts (Penalizes poor foul shooting)
- Free Throw Made (FTM): +0.5 pts (Results in a net 0 for making the free throw, and -0.5 for missing)
By implementing these efficiency modifiers, a manager cannot simply draft players who take 25 shots a game on a bad team. They must find players who actively contribute to winning basketball by taking high-percentage shots and avoiding costly mistakes at the free-throw line. This completely changes draft strategies and waiver wire valuations.
