Tuesday's DraftKings slate is a single game, SHSU @ BAMA, and it locks Tue 11/3 at 7:30 p.m. ET (4:30 p.m. PT). The format uses a captain slot that scores 1.5x points at 1.5x salary, with a $50,000 cap.
One note on the numbers: our projections are not built for this slate. What we can offer instead are the DraftKings averages, and they point to BAMA. Amari Allen leads at 28.5 for $13,400, followed by Aden Holloway at 27.8 for $12,000 and Drew Fielder at 25.4 for $11,200. Holloway carries an OUT tag from DraftKings, so he is not a play. Allen and Fielder are the two top-end BAMA options that remain.
On the SHSU side, Justin Begg averages 19.2 at $6,600, which makes him the best points-per-dollar number among the leading names, though he carries a Q tag. Enel St. Bernard averages 17.5 at $8,200, and Jacobe Coleman averages 15.4 at $9,800, a steeper price for the output.
The cheapest production comes from BAMA's frontcourt. Jamarion Davis-Fleming averages 13.8 at $5,200, and Brandon Garrison averages 13.6 at just $1,000. That salary is the story of the slate, since it frees up room for the expensive stars everywhere else.
We have no ownership figures for this slate, so we won't guess where the crowd will land.
Our model's top lineup spends the full $50,000. It puts Drew Fielder at captain for $16,800, then adds Amari Allen at $13,400, Enel St. Bernard at $8,200, Matt Dann at $6,200, Keitenn Bristow at $4,400 and Brandon Garrison at $1,000 in the utility spots. Garrison's price is what makes the Allen and Fielder pairing fit under the cap.
