Trade End Date: February 25, 2016

https://help.yahoo.com/kb/all-star-week-scoring-fantasy-basketball-sln14221.html

The fantasy league "week" that includes the NBA All-Star game takes place in Yahoo Fantasy Basketball from February 8-21, 2016.

Here's how fantasy leagues will be affected:

Stats earned in the All-Star Game are not counted in scoring for Yahoo Sports Fantasy Basketball.

There are no changes to your weekly transaction limit during the All-Star gameweek.

- So if your league features a 3-transaction limit, managers will only be able to make 3 player adds via waivers or free agency during this Fantasy week.

All-Star Game live stats will be displayed during the game itself and points are displayed on your team page and in StatTracker, but these won't count toward your league scoring totals.

The All-Star Game points will be cleared in an overnight update.

SET YOUR LINEUPS, use your I.L spot if you have an injured player.

Takes like 30 seconds to set a weeks game in advance.
