Season
39 of a very fun and competitive Franchise league. Rules are simple:
1. Pick a Franchise - owners can have more than one franchise
2. All players on your team must be from a season they played for your franchise (no twisting)
3. $47M cap
4. No clones, rookies or WW
5. Team name and Arena should be accurate (but mash-ups like Seattle Thunder are OK)
6. Yes you can use players from all historical versions of your franchise (e.g. NY Nets, NJ Nets etc)
7. The Charlotte Hornets/Bobcats and New Orleans Hornets/Pelicans will be treated as 1 franchise.
8. ABA Franchises can be combined into a single team; note that only ABA seasons between 67-68 and 75-76 are eligible:

In the interest of fairness, we will give everyone a couple of days to sign up and then hold a
draft starting on Sunday, December 17, 2023. Draft order will be random,
anyone signing up before the draft starts has a shot at the #1 pick. Owners with multiple teams will have only first team in the draft, second team will pick in opposite order of first round lottery. Anyone who signs up after Draft Day can choose from the remaining undrafted franchises.
Good luck... Let's go Old Skool!
