NBA Salary Comparison FAQ
The NBA Salary Comparison tool looks at the average salary each site awards you to spend on each player. For example, on DraftStreet you have 8 players to put into a $100,000 salary cap. Thus, you get $12,500 to spend per player on average. This tool compares the proportion each player costs against that $/player figure on the 7 DFS sites:
- FanDuel – $6,666 per player ($60K cap, 9 Players)
- DraftStreet – $12,500 per player ($100K cap, 8 players)
- DraftDay – $11,111 per player ($100K cap, 9 Players)
- DraftKings – $6,250 per player ($50K cap, 8 players)
- FantasyFeud – $100,000 per player ($1mil cap, 10 players)
- StarStreet – $11,111 per player ($100K cap, 9 Players)
- FanThrowDown – $10,000 per player ($100K cap, 10 players)
Sample Calculation:
A) DraftStreet Salary – $17500
B) DraftStreet $/Player Allotted – $12500 (8 players, $100K Salary Cap)
C) DraftStreet Percent of $/Player = $17500/$12500 = 140%
A) FanDuel Salary = $8000
B) FanDuel $/Player Allotted = $6,666 (9 players, $60K salary cap)
C) FanDuel Percent of $/Player = $8000/$6666 = 120%
D) FD-Diff = DraftStreet Pct – FanDuel Pct = 140% – 120% = 20%
