How to play

Draft the best DARKO lineup.

Five rounds, one pick each. The players' single-season DARKO scores are hidden — just pick the one you think had the biggest impact, five times, to build your lineup.

1. Draft five

You'll see a board of player seasons from one NBA season — names and faces, no scores. Trust your gut, pick the one you think had the biggest DARKO impact, and we'll reveal his real number. Five rounds, five players, one lineup.

2. Use lifelines
  • Redeal: Don't like these players? Get a fresh batch from the same season.
  • Position: Narrow the board to one position you pick.
  • Double Dip: Grab two players from the same round.
  • Reveal: Peek at a player's offense, defense, and total before you lock in.
  • Jump season: Want different players? Jump to a new NBA season.
3. Score bonuses

Your five picks set the base score, then bonuses stack on top: +3 for a full PG-SG-SF-PF-C lineup, up to +2 for balanced offense and defense, and a +4 Lockdown bonus for a defense over +11. A lopsided roster drags it down.

What's DARKO?

DARKO estimates a player's current talent from box-score and tracking signals, then expresses offense, defense, and total value as points per 100 possessions. Higher is better, and each card is one player season.

A 90th percentile lineup is a 6‑ring lineup.Good luck!
