Tuesday's DraftKings college basketball main slate runs eight games: UF @ FSU, MSU @ DUKE, VT @ IOWA, WYO @ UNC, MEM @ VAND, IL @ TTU, CRE @ KSU and KU @ UK. Lock is 6:00 p.m. ET (3:00 p.m. PT) on Tuesday 11/10, with a $50,000 salary cap.
One note on the numbers before we get into them. Our model has not produced projections for this slate, so we cannot offer a top lineup or a projected total salary. What we can show is how the highest DraftKings averages line up against price.
Ben Hammond of VT leads everyone with a DraftKings average of 43.1 at $8,500. Thomas Haugh of UF is next among the premium bats at $9,200 and a 39.1 average, while Tyler Tanner of VAND carries the slate's top salary at $10,000 with a 37.5 average. Andrej Stojakovic of IL sits in the middle tier at $6,800 and 38.0.
The value end is where the averages stand out. Ethan Brown of IL averages 36.9 at just $3,000, and Cruz Davis of TTU averages 38.1 at $4,500. Jayden Reid of MEM is at 41.8 for $4,800, which is the second-highest average on the board at less than half of Hammond's price. Amani Hansberry of VT averages 37.0 at $5,900, giving VT two of the top averages on the slate.
Ownership figures are not available for this slate, so we cannot say where the crowd will land.
