Nice! A great resource for anyone who has bloody Ersan "The Turkish Teacup" Ilyasova on their team. Always giving me fits.

Push notifications to my mobile device on a status change would be most excellent.

(Ask HN: HNBA fantasy bball league anyone?)

You kind of asked for it if you picked Ersan, though. He gets injured quite often.

(Sure, why not. A bit late though, isn't it?)

As for the website, it looks good. Maybe I'm missing something but do I have to search for players specifically? Can't I just browse player information league by league? (Sort of like what Rotoworld does here: http://www.rotoworld.com/playernews/nba/basketball-player-ne...)

So true. He's not even the worst. My team would be rocking a fantasy hospital league right now.

Yeah. Suppose so. Maybe next year we can get one going. Good to know there are other fantasy NBA fans on HN, though.

Yeah, lots of devastating injuries this year.

I don't know if there are other fantasy NBA fans on HN, but I'm sure there are a lot of NBA fans. I've seen a few instances where people built something regarding the NBA. I don't know a lot about other sports, but analytics is also a very hot topic in the NBA for a couple of years now, so I'm sure there are NBA nerds reading HN (Wouldn't be surprised to see someone from APBR, for instance).

I'd be up for a HNBA fantasy league this year or next.

Good to see some fantasy NBA fans here! A friend and I finally released Fantasy MVP (for iOS). It's designed for users who have multiple Yahoo! and ESPN basketball leagues. Get all your scores in one easy to read list, no more switching between apps, and no ads. I just wanted one scoreboard for all my leagues, so a friend and I built this.

Try it out! https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fantasy-mvp/id738774993?mt=8...
