Daily fantasy sports are games that allow players to create professional teams of athletes from specific leagues - like the NBA, for example. When selecting the team, each entrant must adhere to a budget cap to 'buy' players for their daily team. The teams that gain the most points on that day (accrued total from the individual stats of each player) win. The winners then get a share of a pre-determined pot funded by their entry fees. Daily fantasy sports are a short version of fantasy sports leagues that last a whole season.
