“The Other Season,” a competition put on by the creators of NBA 2K9, boasts eight NBA players as fantasy owners and you as their draftee.

Slated to open with the beginning of the NBA regular season, The Other Season pits players against each other in one-on-one video-game basketball matchups online. Players score in the traditional categories: points, assists, rebounds, steals, blocks, fouls and turnovers.

The eight NBAers — Kevin Garnett, Carlos Boozer, Greg Oden, Derrick Rose, Monta Ellis, Steve Nash, Chauncey Billups and Andre Iguodola — will draft teams of the online gamers and compete using the points their gamers rack up.

The winning team will get $10,000 donated to its charity of choice by 2K Sports.
