Wednesday's main CBB slate on DraftKings is a five-game card: FDU @ BUTLE, CS-NR @ WICH, SELA @ AUB, RAD @ CAL and NDSU @ STMRY. The $50,000 cap applies, and the slate locks at 7:00 p.m. ET (4:00 p.m. PT).
Lee Dort of CAL tops our model's ranking at $9,300, with a ceiling of 34.1 against a DraftKings average of 21.3. He carries a Q tag on DraftKings, so check his status before lock. William Berg of WICH has the highest ceiling on our board at 34.2 and a DraftKings average of 23.2 for $6,500. Michael Gray Jr. of WICH ($7,300) comes in at a 28.4 ceiling and a 17.4 average.
WICH shows up repeatedly in our top plays. Dillon Battie sits at $5,500 with a 26.6 ceiling, and TJ Williams is $5,800 with a 26.0 ceiling and an 18.4 average. Our model likes how many WICH bats fit into a single build. Noah Hill of WICH carries an OUT tag, so he is off the table.
The best value on the board is Frederik Erichsen of RAD, a forward at $4,300 with a ceiling of 18.2 and a DraftKings average of 10.6. At that price he frees up cap room for the pricier names. Semetri Carr of CAL is another reasonable mid-tier option at $6,100, with a 19.3 ceiling and an 11.2 average. David Jevtic of FDU ($6,800, 23.2 ceiling) rounds out the group.
The fact sheet does not include ownership figures for this slate, so we can't say where the crowd will land. Treat the Q tags on Dort, Owen Freeman of AUB and BJ Omot of CS-NR as the main uncertainty before lock.
Our model's top lineup uses $47,600 of the $50,000 cap. It runs Gray Jr. ($7,300), Josiah Davis ($7,200) and Carr ($6,100) at guard, with Thomas Dowd ($7,900), Battie ($5,500) and Ashley Sims II ($4,000) at forward. Williams ($5,800) and Jordan Frison ($3,800) fill the UTIL spots. Lock is 7:00 p.m. ET.
