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

Guard

Zach LaVine, Chicago Bulls (1.2x score multiplier) – The Bulls are off to a hot start with their new-look roster. Unfortunately for the Chicago faithful, they suffered a big loss when second-year forward Patrick Williams injured his wrist last week. With Williams out for the regular season, the Bulls will rely on some lesser-known names to complement their quartet of star players. For our purposes on SuperDraft tonight, we will focus on said star players when targeting the Bulls. LaVine stands out at his 1.2x multiplier in what should be a competitive matchup with Boston. He’s attempting nearly 20 shots per game through six games and has continued his elite shooting from last season, averaging just over 40% from three so far. LaVine has had massive success against the Celtics recently, averaging 32.4 points against Boston in his last five games against the club dating back to 2019. Even with the addition of his new teammates, LaVine is my favorite option from the Bulls tonight on SuperDraft

Tyrese Maxey, Philadelphia 76ers (1.6x) – The biggest news on this slate at the time of this writing is the resting of Joel Embiid. While we’ll get to the primary target in the center section, we should also consider second-year guard Maxey at his elevated multiplier. This early in the season, we naturally have a fairly small sample size of what happens for the other Philadelphia starters when Joel Embiid is off the floor, but the bump Maxey has seen is significant. Again, it’s only a 37-minute sample size through six games, but Maxey gets a 5.5% usage increase to 27% with Embiid off the floor this season. We can shrink the sample size even more by including all of Maxey’s minutes with Embiid off the court and Andre Drummond on (which is what we’ll see a lot of Monday), and the results are actually even more encouraging. In the 26 minutes that Maxey and Drummond have shared the court without Embiid through six games, Tyrese Maxey is enjoying a 30.1% usage rate. Keeping in mind that in an ideal world we’d have more data to look at for this scenario, it’s hard for me to ignore Maxey at this multiplier against a weak Portland defense.

Forward

Jayson Tatum, Boston Celtics (1.15x) – We already discussed my interest in rostering Zach LaVine on this slate, and I’m inclined to run it back on the other side of the Bulls-Celtics game with Tatum. The All-Star Celtics forward has been putting up fantastic numbers (27/9/4) at an inefficient rate (40/27/78). There’s clearly room for Tatum to be even more impressive going forward, and with Patrick Williams out for the Bulls I just don’t see anyone on this Chicago roster with a prayer of slowing Tatum down. With his multiplier sitting just off the floor at 1.15x, it’s hard for me to ignore Tatum while he’s sporting 33.7% usage rate, shooting 25 times a game and going into a big Eastern Conference matchup with a two-point spread.

Tobias Harris, Philadelphia 76ers (1.2x) – I’m adding this blurb after the Embiid news broke late this morning. I do prefer Maxey and the upcoming 76ers player at center, but it’s irresponsible to completely ignore Harris with Embiid out. I still prefer getting to Tatum if you’re looking at a last forward in for the upside and lower ownership in GPPs, but Harris will step into elevated usage with Embiid out. The sample size with Drummond and Harris sharing the court through six games is even smaller than the data we looked at for Maxey, but I think it’s a decent way to show that the opportunity will be increased for Harris regardless. In 18 minutes of sharing the court with Drummond and Embiid off, Harris has a 40.1% usage rate. I expect that to be in the low-30s in this game but that’s still a significant increase from his 25.4% rate on the season as a whole. 

Chris Boucher, Toronto Raptors (1.65x) – Scottie Barnes is doubtful with a thumb injury and on the surface one would think that the veteran Boucher would step into the lineup at start at the power forward next to Precious Achiuwa in the frontcourt. Should that come to pass, I love getting to Boucher in GPPs on SuperDraft at this elevated multiplier. He’s a fantastic fantasy asset when he gets regular minutes, something that hasn’t been happening for the former Oregon Duck so far this season. We’ll need to see the Toronto starting lineup to confirm this play but plan to get some Boucher exposure in the case of the lanky swingman notching his first start of the season. 

Center

Andre Drummond, Philadelphia 76ers (1.6x) – The 76ers backup center might be close to 100% rostered across the DFS landscape with Joel Embiid out to rest his knee. I’m here to tell you that this is not the time to get cute and fade Drummond. We can discuss the merits of Drummond from a real-life basketball perspective later, the (now) journeyman center is still just as productive from a fantasy perspective and should absolutely smash at his 1.6x multiplier. He projects as the highest-scoring player on SuperDraft and anyone telling you differently is just plain wrong. Of course, projections are just that and strange things happen every day in DFS. But you won’t find me trying to predict injuries, fire alarms or natural disasters that could derail Drummond’s night. Cash, GPPs and everything in between, it’s imperative that you take the free square with Drummond and move on.
