SuperDraft NBA Picks for Today

With six games on Thursday’s slate, let’s get into some of the Multiplier plays over on SuperDraft.

Guard

Trae Young, Atlanta Hawks (1.2x score multiplier) – The Hawks are on their first back-to-back of the season and in a prime spot against the Wizards. Even though the Wizards sit at 3-1, they have given up some big performances to opposing guards including 28 points to Malcolm Brogdon, 21 to Patty Mills and 26 (Wednesday night) to Dennis Schroder, who came off the bench. With Young rounding into form (31 points Wednesday against New Orleans after 32 against Detroit Monday), it’s time to attack him at this 1.2x multiplier. The Hawks phenom has averaged over 23 shot attempts per game over his last three, and with this game expected to stay close I would rather roster Young than the other available stud guards at lower multipliers like Stephen Curry. 

De’Anthony Melton, Memphis Grizzlies (1.7x) – Dillon Brooks should be making his return to the Grizzlies rotation soon, but it won’t be Thursday, and that means we can go right back to the value well with Melton. The Griz are also on a back-to-back and are six-point underdogs on the road at Golden State. Melton had his first dud of the season against the Blazers Wednesday, shooting 0-of-8 from the field. I expect a bounceback in this one, as he was averaging 14 shot attempts per game through the first three and even with not making a shot last night is still shooting 44% from the field through four games. Melton has scored 20 or more real points in two of the Grizzlies first four games and unless you think Golden State blows out Memphis, we have to have some significant interest in Melton at this multiplier. We can also consider his backcourt mate Desmond Bane, who has been equally as impressive and also holds a 1.7x multiplier on SuperDraft.

Forward

Luka Doncic, Dallas Mavericks (1x) – The smaller the slate, the more you’re generally going to want to include a star player or two with lower multipliers in GPPs on SuperDraft. As the odds-on favorite to win MVP at most sportsbooks, Luka fits that mold. He has both guard and forward eligibility at SuperDraft which will help you comfortably fit in all the players you want to prioritize in your lineups. After a letdown in the opener (at least by Doncic’s standards), the Mavs franchise player has put together back-to-back big fantasy games. With Kristaps Porzingis questionable for the game against the Spurs, a ceiling game from Doncic is even more likely against a San Antonio club that has allowed 123 points per game over their last two. Doncic averaged 29 points, 8 rebounds and 10 assists per game over the three times these two teams met last season, I think he picks up right where he left off against his division rivals to the south.

Montrezl Harrell, Washington Wizards (1.5x) – Not the easiest of matchups for the Wizards’ new frontcourt addition, but the opportunity could be massive in this one. Daniel Gafford has been getting the starting nod at center for Washington so far this season and with Thomas Bryant still recovering from his knee injury it’s been a two-man rotation at center between Gafford and Harrell. That is, until Gafford got hurt last night in the second quarter. He did not return to the game and is scheduled to have an MRI Thursday morning. In all likelihood Gafford will end up missing this game and if so, we should be locking Harrell into our SuperDraft lineups at 1.5x. He’s always been a productive fantasy player on a per-minute basis, and he saw 38 minutes Wednesday, including 22 of the 24 second-half minutes after Gafford exited. It should be a big night for Harrell against the Hawks.

Center

Nikola Vucevic, Chicago Bulls (1.25x) – Even with Zach LaVine being questionable, we should have interest in the Bulls big man at this elevated multiplier. The uncertainty about where the production will come from on a night-to-night basis in Chicago usually makes it tough, but the combination of LaVine’s questionable status and Vucevic’s 1.25x makes this a good spot to have some shares of the Bulls center. We shouldn’t be scared of a matchup with the Knicks for a guy like Vucevic. He’s averaged 21 points and 16 rebounds per game against New York over his last four meetings dating back to his time with Orlando. I expect another big output here, especially if LaVine ends up inactive.
