Facts Over Feelings Scoring Explained

Fantasy 5 uses our own points system to convert a regular-season stat line into a balanced score.

PTS + (1.2 × REB) + (1.5 × AST) + (2 × STL) + (2 × BLK) − TOV

What the weights reward

Every point adds one FOF point. Rebounds add 1.2, assists add 1.5, and steals and blocks add two. Each turnover subtracts one.

A real example

LeBron James averaged 25.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, 10.2 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.5 blocks, and 3.9 turnovers in 2019–20. The formula produces 49.46 FOF points per game.

Why totals matter

Per-game FOF points are multiplied by games played. A player with slightly lower per-game production can rank higher by remaining available across the regular season.

How the game score works

Each round names one position and historical season. First place earns 100 game points; second through fifth earn 80, 60, 40, or 20. A player outside the stored top five earns zero.
