If you’re new to fantasy hoops and looking to try it out for the first time, here is a tutorial on the basics. From there, it’s easy to grab a handful of people, set up a draft and have some fun! Before that, though, it’s always smart to spend a little time preparing with a mock draft of your own.

So who went in Round 1? Which stars slipped to the second and third rounds? And who stood out as top values in the middle and late rounds?

The participants of our 8-team H2H points mock, in order of draft position, were as follows: Steve Alexander, Matt Williams, Michael Schwartz, Eric Moody, Joe Kaiser, Jim McCormick, Andre Snellings and Eric Karabell.
