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

 

 

Guard

Donovan Mitchell, Utah Jazz (1.2x score multiplier) – The Jazz are big home favorites in the game with the highest total on the slate against Sacramento. There’s certainly some blowout risk in spots like this, but coach Quin Snyder has shown over the past few years that he will run his starters late into games that turn into blowouts at home. Unless the deficit balloons past 25-30 points to begin the fourth quarter, I don’t have much worry about Mitchell’s minutes being limited. It’s somewhat surprising that Mitchell, who is sporting a massive 33.8% usage rate through the first six games, hasn’t had a “ceiling” game yet. Any player with that type of opportunity in a matchup against the Kings, who have the worst defensive rating of the 10 teams on the slate, is going to garner significant interest. In a game like multiplier where salary isn’t a factor, I want shares of the Jazz star guard.

Tyler Herro, Miami Heat (1.5x) – We’ll get to Jimmy Butler in the forward section of the article, but if you pass on him you should strongly consider going to Herro in tournaments. Bam Adebayo is questionable as of this writing, and even though I think he ends up playing, we have seen Herro ascend to a new level early this season. He’s in complete command of the second unit for Miami, who has started the season scorching hot with a 5-1 record and more than a 17-point scoring margin. Herro is also getting plenty of opportunity when he’s out there with members of the starting unit as well and has a 29.9% usage rate through the first six games. His potential assists over the first two weeks of play are also a welcome surprise. Herro is averaging 9.2 potential assists per game, which is nearly identical to players like Mike Conley, Devin Booker and Lonzo Ball. He’s shown upside that is more than enough at his 1.5x multiplier and because I want exposure to the Heat on this slate, becomes a strong target for me in large-field tournaments. 

Forward

Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee Bucks (1x) – The Bucks will once again be without the majority of their normal starting five, and the reigning NBA Finals MVP will soak up even more usage than we’re used to against the lowly Detroit Pistons. Milwaukee is somewhat surprisingly only 4.5-point favorites tonight on the road, and if the margin is anywhere close to that number, we should get full run from Giannis here. He struggled a bit against a much stouter Utah defense (who was coming off a loss as well) in the loss on Sunday, and I like him to bounce back in a big way against Detroit. There’s nobody on this Pistons roster with a prayer of stopping Antetokounmpo, who is holding a 34.8% usage rate this season. I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw an astronomical usage rate for Giannis in this one (think above 40%) and he’s by far my favorite stud to roster on SuperDraft.

Jimmy Butler, Miami Heat (1.2x) – As I talked about in the Herro section, the Heat are off to a great start this season, and as usual Butler is leading the way. He’s contributing across the box score, averaging over 25 points, 7 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game while also sitting at second in the league in steals. Coming into a big nationally televised matchup against one of the league’s stars in Luka Doncic, this is a spot where I want to target Butler at his 1.2x multiplier. He’s got triple-double upside every time he steps onto the floor, and that only increases when Bam Adebayo isn’t available for Miami. With Adebayo still listed questionable as of this writing, a potential absence would make Butler a lock for me on SuperDraft.

Center

Jonas Valanciunas, New Orleans Pelicans (1.25x) – There are several viable options in this multiplier range at the center position this evening, but Valanciunas sticks out slightly above the rest. The Pelicans big man has been thrust into the largest role of his 11-year NBA career to start the season and he’s been doing what he’s been known for, and that’s produce fantasy points at a high rate. With Zion Williamson still out, plus Brandon Ingram and Devonte’ Graham questionable, Valanciunas could be in line for some absolutely massive production against the Suns. The Pelicans are significant underdogs on the road in Phoenix here, but barring a disgusting blowout we should see a very solid floor combined with an enormous ceiling on the New Orleans center. Over the last five games, Valanciunas is averaging 21.8 points and 16.4 rebounds in 35 minutes per game. To my point earlier about his larger role, Valanciunas has never averaged more than 28.3 minutes per game in any of his 10 previous seasons. I wouldn’t raise my eyebrows if you rostered Rudy Gobert at this same 1.25x multiplier or Bam Adebayo if he plays, but I’m prioritizing Valanciunas first among that group.
