fantasy sports industry

The fantasy sports industry involves participants creating virtual teams composed of real professional athletes, often across popular sports like football, basketball, or baseball. Players earn points based on their athletes' real-world performances during games. Participants often join leagues with friends or strangers, competing for prizes or bragging rights. Companies organize these platforms, offering tools for drafting, managing teams, and tracking stats. The industry has grown rapidly, blending entertainment with data analysis, and appeal for sports fans seeking an interactive way to engage with sports and test their strategic skills.
