How the NBA nightly contest works
Every night you make three picks from the DraftKings main slate: one Spend Up player, one Value player and one Best Bet.
Spend Up must cost $8,000 or more on DraftKings. It hits when the player scores 5 times his salary in thousands, for example 50 DK points at $10,000.
Value must cost $5,000 or less. It hits at 6 times salary, for example 27 DK points at $4,500.
Best Bet is one spread, moneyline, game total, team total or DraftKings player prop. It risks 1 unit at the best price when you pick.
How points and the season ledger work
Each DFS hit is worth 1 point. The Best Bet adds its unit profit: a win at -110 adds 0.91, a loss subtracts 1, a push adds 0.
Every pick is saved to a season ledger. Picks are graded every day from final scores and official box scores.
A player who does not play scores 0 DK points. A prop on a player who does not play is void.
