Overview
Sleeper brings people together over sports. We built Sleeper to help strengthen bonds between friends, families, and co-workers. Some of our fondest memories include Super Bowl parties with classmates, water-cooler debates at work, watching Christmas NBA games in our pajamas with family, and playing in fantasy leagues with friends.
