Unfortunately I don't think this is going to happen. There is a mod for all the legends that you can use for a fantasy draft. It includes basically everyone we drafted. I tried to do the fantasy draft with it a couple times tonight. There are two primary issues.

1) The recent vintages of the mod have some issue that cause them to crash constantly on certain players.
2) The older, more stable versions of the mod do not include people like Giannis and Luka.

I looked to see if there were options for NBA 2k19 or NBA 2k15 which I also own, but there are not. There does not seem to be any way I can make it work without absurd amount of work put in by me. I do spend a lot of time on this site, but I also have a life to live and I am not spending dozens of hours getting this **** to even just work at the basic level. Sorry guys.

I accept this. Ten points to Gryffndor for the attempt.

would it be feasible for you to avoid players who are causing the crash,
by using a substitute player that is VERY close or has very similar attributes?
(probably not)

Im not meddling in your business - I like your original idea...

or two 12 team leagues?

Could you skip the fantasy draft and just adjust team rosters to match our rosters and do custom league settings for a 24 team league maybe?

Also, if you wanna just say screw it then I totally get that too!

This I might be able to do if I use the modding tools myself. I’ll take a look at it.

I am through 9 teams trying to use these sketchy Russian tools to mod this roster together.

I am optimistic this may be done today. I am trying to use the median rating for each player. I will give an overall summary of the teams when it is done, before I start simulating games.

So I spent like 4 days, probably like 10 hours trying to do this with the Russian tools. I couldn't get it quite right. So I found a contact for the guy who made the mod with every historical NBA season and paid him $40 to make this for us. He sent it to me an hour or two ago and I am just testing it.

Every player matches every team. For players with more than one season, he used the median rating. So far it is looking pretty good. I let the computer set what it thinks is the best rotation. The only issue is that it looks like there might be some issues with position assignment that I will try and take a look at.

Here are the teams that I assigned to everyone (If I knew enough about you, I tried to make them relevant. In some cases I had no idea. Also, you can't run a season with less than 30 teams so the Pelicans, Heat, Cavs, Kings, Nets and Nuggets were unused. That let me have one team full of minimum rating players per division):

Governor	Team
dh555	76ers
albiband0	Rockets
20ks	Bucks
jhsukow	Pacers
mptrey	Raptors
amerk1180	Bulls
pharrop	Celtics
dBKC	Clippers
ashamael	Grizzlies
24kpyrite	Hawks
tarheel1991	Hornets
dskantor	Jazz
mikee1	Knicks
jcred5	Lakers
pexetera	Magic
jpevans31	Mavericks
cmcafeeky	Pistons
gerryred	Spurs
bds9992	Suns
goetz93	Thunder
benhoidal	Timberwolves
robusk	Trail Blazers
ysw128	Warriors
longtallbrad	Wizards

I love it.

Cool stuff. I'm a Pacers guy, if you keep running this in future seasons :)

Cool. I think jhsukow is too so maybe whoever finishes highest can have it next season. I just went with a Texas team for pseudo proximity to Alabama since Atlanta and Memphis were already gone. Pelicans would have worked too but I needed one team per division to go unused.

This is great work. Thanks man.

Mind giving us a couple of player ratings so that we could see what the median average looks like for a few guys?

I don't know when of if I will get to that since there is no way other than me writing **** down on paper.

I do plan to post everyone's team offense, defense and overall rankings before bed if I can. Have to bake a cake and wrap presents right now.

No rush! Bake that cake!
