SuperDraft NBA DFS Picks (11/8)

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 daily article will focus on daily value 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.

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

Guard

Russell Westbrook, Los Angeles Lakers (1x score multiplier) – The Lakers will remain without LeBron James for this game against the visiting Hornets. That makes Westbrook an attractive play even at his floor multiplier, but LeBron is not where the Lakers injury report ends Monday. Anthony Davis, who exited the Laker’s last game early with an illness, is listed questionable to play with a finger injury. With James off the court this season, Westbrook is sporting a 34.1% usage rate. When Davis joins James on the sideline that number balloons to 41.5%. As of this writing, my gut feeling is that Davis will be out on the court for the purple and gold here, due to the Lakers currently being favored by a point and a half. Davis would be my preferred target of the two in that scenario, but if he sits, I would be many lineups in on SuperDraft (think 10-plus) before I built one without Westbrook in a guard slot. 

Malik Beasley, Minnesota Timberwolves (1.9x) – Another play that hinges on injury news that we don’t have quite yet. The Wolves have been without D’Angelo Russell for the last two games after injuring his ankle, and he’s listed as questionable for the trip to the “Grindhouse” to face the Grizzlies. In Russell’s recent absence, Beasley has been thrust into a much larger minutes role averaging over 31 minutes per game over the last three games (including the loss against Orlando, when Russell exited early). Beasley has always been a score-first guard and is not shy about hunting for his shots, especially from beyond the arc. Over that same three game sample Beasley has taken 46 shots, with 36 of them coming from three. With SuperDraft’s three-point bonus plus the minutes load Beasley saw last time Minnesota took the court (on-pace for 39 minutes before he was pulled in the blowout), I have a ton of interest in rostering Beasley if Russell takes a seat again.

Forward

Julius Randle, New York Knicks (1.15x) – With Joel Embiid now out for Philadelphia, the frontcourt looks a lot more appetizing to attack from the New York side of the ball. Randle has continued to play tons of minutes in this Tom Thibodeau offense and the upside is there with his multiplier still sitting above the floor. He’s struggled from the floor so far this season, especially from three, where he’s down more than seven percent from last year’s numbers on the same attempts per game. While he may experience a downtick in efficiency when all is said and done this year, I would be surprised the drop off is as drastic as it appears now. The Knicks have also listed Mitchell Robinson and Nerlens Noel as questionable for this game. If one or both sit, you could see Randle spend some time at the five in this game, which would only raise his already attractive ceiling. 

Zach LaVine, Chicago Bulls (1.25x) – Multipliers on the Bulls starters have been interesting to track over the first three weeks of the regular season. With all four of the “stars” healthy, it’s tough to predict which of the Chicago players will have the most production on a night-to-night basis. But as our sample size grows on this new-look Bulls roster, so does our knowledge of what to expect. LaVine and new arrival DeMar DeRozan have been the go-to options thus far, so much so that they are both in the top five in scoring across the entire league. They each hold a 1.25x multiplier and both players per game stats are extremely similar. LaVine gets the nod for me with his slightly higher usage rate (31.1 to 30.3) and near seven three-point attempts per game (compared to DeRozan’s two) in a friendly matchup against the Nets.

Center

Andre Drummond, Philadelphia 76ers (1.45x) – Right before this article was submitted, 76ers star center Joel Embiid was ruled out with rest (and then placed in the health and safety protocols) on the front end of the back-to-back, opening up Drummond as an amazing value at his elevated multiplier. We’ve seen a few examples of Drummond starting for this Philly team, both in the preseason and once in the regular season. Predictably, he has produced at a similar rate as we were used to in his days as the main man in the middle for the Pistons and later the Cavs. In those days, Drummond would be sitting closer to the floor multiplier rather than his 1.45x he’s got here. I wouldn’t get too cute on this slate, especially if I’m only running one lineup. Lock in Drummond and move on.
