Fours is Connections for basketball
Sixteen NBA players, four hidden groups of four. Find them all before four misses spell BUST.
How to play Fours
Pick four
Tap four players you think have something in common, then Submit.
Lock in a group
A right four locks in as a coloured row and shows what connected them. Three out of four says “One away…”
Watch your misses
A four you already tried costs nothing. Four misses spell BUST, and the groups you missed are shown.
Come back tomorrow
There is one board a day for everybody, new at midnight Eastern. Your shared result never gives away a name.
What the groups look like
Some are easy to spot, like players born in Canada or undrafted players. Others are sneakier, like last names that are colors or last names that start with an animal. These come from the practice boards, so the daily stays a surprise.
