A new NBA Basketball Rankings puzzle publishes daily at midnight UTC. Boards are generated from team-season leaderboards for stats such as points, rebounds, assists, games played, and minutes. The generator requires at least 10 eligible players and rejects tied cutoffs before publication, keeping the final rank fair. Misses cost lives but add useful hints, so you can move from stars to rotation players without needing perfect recall from the first guess. Scores reward both completion and mistake control.
