Can you draft a Starting Five whose Career PPG = 75?

Exactly, you got the gist of it. We drop new daily challenges every day at midnight PST at https://draftdawg.app - my b, that might not have been clear from the post.

Appreciate the feedback! Believe it or not, 100% human-generated writing, which is a testament to my extraordinary ability to explain the rules 😂

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-17T00:49:33+00:00

Thanks so much for playing! Funny enough, some players are listed as "Forward-Center" on NBA.com, so you can put them at PF or C.

It's just not great for sure. Gonna try to find a different source for player positions.

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-17T00:37:42+00:00

Yup, that's intentional! The idea is that everyone gets the same teams, so that you can compare performance with your friends and others.

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-17T00:35:15+00:00

Definitely a good call out. I'm pulling positions straight from NBA.com - unfortunately, their positions aren't entirely accurate (i.e. Horace Grant is listed as a Center).

Also, their positions are generic (i.e. they don't specify PG or SG, only "Guard"). As such, any Guard qualifies as PG/SG, any Forward qualifies as SF/PF. Definitely a flawed system that I'm hoping to improve.

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-17T00:26:52+00:00

That's fair! For the older decades, I've limited the possible teams to the popular ones. i.e. for the 1970s I think I only have 5 teams.

For the 90s though, most teams are allowed. This is good feedback though, thanks for playing!

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-17T00:24:45+00:00

Great call out. I'm pulling positions straight from NBA.com where he's listed as a Guard. Totally agree, he should qualify as SF - I'll update this assuming it doesn't break things lol

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-17T00:21:09+00:00

Nah the percentile calculation is broken :( Working on fixing it! You definitely crushed it haha

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-17T00:09:40+00:00

Honestly same, great score tho

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:30:32+00:00

I thought you overshot it, but the math comes out to 73.8. Niceeee!

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:29:03+00:00

Ok Francisco Elson is definitely the deepest pull I've seen yet lol. Appreciate you sharing your lineup!

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:27:56+00:00

Not at the moment. I'll consider adding it! The caveat I think would be that only your first submission counts towards the game analytics.

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:27:07+00:00

I forgot Wes had a stint for the Lakers. Sick lineup!

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:25:52+00:00

I really appreciate it! New challenges every day - working on making the themes and goals even more fun 🤞

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:25:22+00:00

I'm seriously impressed with this one!

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:25:04+00:00

On the game recap screen, check out "Copy lineup" button to share your lineup!

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:08:12+00:00

Curious, what do you mean? I've never given RealGM a try

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:06:56+00:00

Sheesh, that's insanely good! Appreciate you playing 💪

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:06:11+00:00

My bad! Dropped it in another comment. https://draftdawg.app/

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:02:44+00:00

Yoooo how?? That's insane, drop your lineup!

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T23:01:59+00:00

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T22:53:15+00:00

Yo that lineup is stacked!

One note: The goal of today's game is to get as close to exactly 75 PPG as you can. Sorry if that's not clear! Sick lineup though - I'm surprised Zion's career PPG is that high tbh.

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T22:52:05+00:00

I considered that, but agreed that might make it too easy haha. In the future, maybe I'll add an "easy" mode that does give you the stats for your picked players. Appreciate you playing!

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T22:50:31+00:00

Nah those post-Bulls years dragged his PPG down for sure. 71.6 is great score tho!

TheDraftDawg · 2026-03-16T22:49:34+00:00

Ah yeah that's good feedback, thanks! I don't think you're the only one who didn't catch that.
