SuperDraft is one of the hottest platforms in the market for DFS players. SuperDraft offers a unique twist on your traditional DFS experience with game modes like “Multiplier” and “Super 15.”
This article will focus on daily plays from SuperDraft’s exclusive Multiplier game mode. By eliminating the traditional salary cap structure and providing a points multiplier for every player on the slate, there is almost limitless flexibility when building lineups on SuperDraft. You can load up on all the studs, but their point multipliers will be low. You can balance those plays out with some long shots that could score up to 2x their fantasy points to vault you to the top of the leaderboards.
As always with NBA DFS, make sure that you are on top of any late breaking injury news and starting lineup changes. With nine games on tonight’s NBA slate, let’s get into some of the Multiplier plays on SuperDraft.
Guard
Dejounte Murray (1.05x)
The Spurs may not be trying to win every game but they sure are trying to compete with whoever they have available each night. They should have their full complement of players tonight against the Wolves and although the Spurs are four-point home underdogs this game boasts the highest total on the slate by five full points. Murray has been a fantasy darling this season and that should continue against the Wolves tonight especially if Patrick Beverley (questionable) sits out. Murray is not just one of the highest upside options in terms of raw fantasy points, he’s also been one of the most consistent. Over his last five games he’s scored between 55.75 and 60.25 SuperDraft points. He contributes in all five categories, leading the league in steals, and is my favorite guard option if you’re “spending up” at the position.
Terrance Mann (1.65x)
The Clippers have been shorthanded all season and have been without not just Kawhi Leonard but also Paul George and Norman Powell for over a month now. Tonight, we’ll see an even more condensed version of the Clips, who announced this morning that Reggie Jackson and Marcus Morris will rest and Robert Covington is still away from the team due to a personal issue. While it’s not a great matchup on paper, I can’t ignore the increased opportunity for Mann. He should get all of his minutes at point guard tonight and I wouldn’t be surprised to see an assist rate over 30% (we don’t have any sort of reliable sample size) while Mann’s rebound rate is already an above average one for his position (9.8% on the season). He’s my favorite Clippers option, with Luke Kennard and Amir Coffey following him in terms of priorities on this shorthanded roster.
Forward
Giannis Antetokounmpo (1x)
By the time lock rolls around, we may have so much value that you don’t need to go to anyone near the multiplier floor. But as of now, the reigning NBA Finals MVP looks like a great option. The Bucks take on the Jazz in the elevation of Salt Lake City, but the reigning champs are 1.5-point road favorites. Any time a Milwaukee game is expected to stay competitive for all 48 minutes you should have interest in Giannis, who averages 59.1 SuperDraft points per game on the season in 32.5 minutes per game. In close games he’ll typically play into the mid and even sometimes high 30’s in minutes, and his ceiling (despite the tough matchup and environment) rises accordingly. Giannis comes in as my favorite “stud” at the forward position, barely getting the nod over forward eligible Joel Embiid.
Isaiah Roby (1.85x)
I was a fan of Roby on Sunday’s slate and he disappointed in a major way. Coach Daigneault turned to Olivier Sarr for the majority of the center minutes. I’m back on the Roby train tonight against Charlotte, which is one of the best positional matchups in NBA DFS. We’ve seen him get big minutes multiple times in the last few weeks (Roby has exceeded 33.5 minutes three times in his last five games) and he’s averaged 44.25 SuperDraft points in those three games. Roby wasn’t active for the only other meeting between these two teams this season (he was in the G-League), but the Hornets have given up big fantasy performances to opposing centers all season and at his 1.85x multiplier I love going to Roby in tournaments at what should be miniscule ownership.
Center
Nikola Jokic (1x)
The Joker has been amazing in almost every facet of his game this season. His unmatched (in my opinion) performance this season has been reflected in his fantasy results, averaging 60.6 SuperDraft points per game. Over his last five games, he is averaging 71.4 SuperDraft points per game with a 35.2% usage, 46.5% assist, and 21.5% rebounding in 34.8 minutes per game. For those of you like me who aren’t so quick with the math, that’s a massive 2.05 SuperDraft points per minute in the last five games. Now we don’t want to expect that type of production tonight, but this game should be intense. Jokic gets the nod for me over Embiid, but I have no issue if you want to pair both on the chance we see a legendary center battle.
