The National Basketball Association (NBA), Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) and Dream11, the world’s largest fantasy sports platform, today announced a multiyear extension of their existing collaboration that will see Dream11 continue as the official fantasy gaming partner of the NBA and WNBA in the country. The renewal builds on Dream11 and the NBA’s relationship that began in the 2017-18 season with the launch of the league’s first official fantasy game in India.

Through the extension, fans in India can compete daily in a variety of public and private NBA and WNBA-themed fantasy games. Simulating the role of a general manager, fans can construct a virtual team of NBA or WNBA players and accumulate points based on the players’ real-life on-court performances.
