Tuesday night's one-game slate sends OHIO to MIAOH on DraftKings, with a captain slot that scores 1.5x points at 1.5x salary under a $50,000 cap. Lock is Tue 11/10 at 8:00 p.m. ET (5:00 p.m. PT).
Nick Poulos of OHIO sits at the top of our model's ranking. At $11,600 he projects for 20.0 points with a ceiling of 28.5, and his DraftKings average is 18.1. Caleb Heavner of MIAOH is next at $10,000, projected for 17.2 with a 25.4 ceiling. His DraftKings average of 9.7 is well below that projection, so our model is betting on more than his recent output. Dom Dorwart (OHIO, $8,000) projects for just 9.4 but carries a 22.5 ceiling, which makes him a tournament upside piece rather than a floor play.
Others to know: Riley Neer (OHIO, $8,600) projects for 13.1, and Maleek Huggins (MIAOH, $5,600) projects for 10.5 with a 19.7 ceiling, a strong number for the salary.
The best value on the board is Damarion Witten of MIAOH. At $1,200 he projects for 8.3 points, or 6.9 per $1,000, with a 14.1 ceiling. Lynel Billups-Williams (MIAOH, $1,600) projects for 6.0 and a 13.6 ceiling, good for 3.8 points per $1,000. Carl Jenkins (MIAOH, $1,000) projects for 2.2, so he is only a salary-saver.
The fact sheet gives no ownership figures, so we won't guess where the crowd will land. Check the status tags before building, though. DraftKings lists Victor Rosa (OHIO) as Q, and Thomas Gotkowski, David McComb, Cade Yacamelli and Eric Karner of MIAOH, along with Will Hryszko, Khamani Debrow and Zach Hackleman of OHIO, as OUT.
Our model's top lineup uses $49,600 of the $50,000 cap. It puts Poulos at captain for $17,400, then adds Heavner ($10,000), Neer ($8,600), D'Shawntae Jones ($6,800), Huggins ($5,600) and Witten ($1,200).
Finalize your lineups before the 8:00 p.m. ET lock on Tuesday.
