Draft legends from every era, set your game plan, and watch the game play out. No account needed to start.

Play your friends now.

Make a free account, add your friends by username, and challenge them to an NBA or NFL draft. Same squads, same clock, and the game decides whose team wins.

How to play

  1. Pick a sport. NBA or NFL. Each round rolls a real team from a real era, like the 1990s Bulls or the 1985 Bears.
  2. Draft from memory. You and your opponent draft from the same squad. Knowing who played there, and which season was the good one, is the whole game.
  3. Set your strategy. Choose how your team plays: a gamestyle and minutes in basketball, a game plan in football.
  4. Watch it play out. The game is simulated from real season statistics, play by play, with a full box score at the end.

Questions

Is Draft Nova free?

Yes. Draft Nova is free to play, in your browser, with nothing to install.

Do I need an account?

No. You can play a practice game right away without one. A free account keeps your record, badges and stats, and lets you play ranked games and challenge your friends.

Can I play NBA or NFL?

Both. Basketball drafts a ten-player roster from NBA history. Football drafts quarterbacks, running backs, receivers and tight ends by name, and the lines, defense and special teams as units.
