DraftKings Sportsbook: How to Use Enhanced Features on Stats Hub

The Stats Hub in the DraftKings Sportsbook continues to develop with the intent of helping bettors make better bets.

Across the four major sports — NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL — multiple tools have been added to the Stats Hub that can help bettors craft parlays or find the best straight bets on DraftKings Sportsbook.

Before digging into the tools, here’s a quick refresher on how to get to the DraftKings Sportsbook Stats Hub:

Where is the Stats Hub?

Mobile

Atop the home screen on the app, where it reads “Sportsbook” then “Quick Parlay” followed by other options, scroll from right to left. At the very end of this row of options, customers will find the Stats Hub.

Desktop

When opening https://sportsbook.draftkings.com, customers can click on the Stats Hub right at the center of the page.

What enhanced features does the Stats Hub offer?

Here’s a quick list of the tools we’re going to highlight:

• Line Moves
• Consistency Sheets
• Systems
• Teasers
• Streaks
• Team Splits / Player Splits
• Matchups

Line Moves

Opening odds and closing odds are not always the same. Lineup changes and other factors can have an impact. This feature allows bettors to see how the odds on both the favorite and underdog from a single game have fluctuated since the initial odds were set.

Consistency Sheets

Like to bet player props? This page is for you!

Consistency Sheets provide bettors with a comprehensive view of how players are performing against their props.

For bettors who want to get more specific about a player’s setting or look at different prop options to build out a parlay, there are filters that can help:

• Market
• Home/Road
• Fav/Dog (favorite/underdog)
• Sample Size
• Sort by (stat)
• Over/Under (alternate between success toward hitting the over and success toward hitting the under)

On top of modifying filters on this page, bettors can easily place single bets or build out parlays across multiple games on the Consistency Sheet page. Additionally, they can click on a player’s name to view their individual player page, which provides access to their individual Consistency Sheets page and their individual Player Splits page.

Systems

This tool identifies settings in which Moneyline, Spread (Run Line for MLB and Puck Line for NHL) and Game Total plays on a given slate have been successful over the last seven days, last 30 days and the entire ongoing season. (NRFI and YRFI system plays are also available for MLB.)

Once the market option and time filter are selected, systems and system grades will appear. The grades are calculated based on the play’s winning percentage and value. (For example: The “heavy favorites at home” system may hit at a higher rate, but they may not receive as high of a grade as the “underdogs after not playing the previous day” system. Because while hitting at a lower rate, the “underdogs after not playing the previous day” system could generate better value since plays in an underdogs system will be longer than those of a favorites system.)

Instead of viewing which systems are in play by grading, as seen above, bettors can also take a “by team” look with MLB systems (as well as other sports in the future). This allows bettors to scroll in search of the team they want to research and find which systems are in play for them for the upcoming game.)

Systems that are in play on a given day will be accompanied by a yellow circle with a number. This number will indicate the number of games that system applies to on that day.

Bettors can click on any system visible on the Systems page to find more information about the option, including

• System win percentage over a selected time range
• System record over a selected time range
• Available plays for the system on that given day, with the ability to bet right from that page
• A game log of the system history over the selected time range

Teasers

This tool is only applicable to the NFL and NBA, as it allows bettors to research team performance against teased spreads.

The Teaser tool shows a given team’s cover rate against the teaser amount, which can be adjusted at the top of the tool’s page. Bettors can also find facts and streaks for specific teams against the specific teaser amount.

Streaks

Some streaks aren’t as obvious as others, be they player streaks or team streaks. The Streaks tool in DraftKings Sportsbook’s Stats Hub makes sure no red-hot or ice-cold plays slip past any bettor.

Team Splits / Player Splits

Currently only available for MLB but coming to other sports, these pages allow bettors to look at player and team stats in specific settings with the use of various filters.

As mentioned in the Consistency Sheets section, there are also individual player pages that allow bettors to focus on a player’s individual splits based on various factors.

Matchups

One of the newest tools on the Stats Hub, the Matchups tool is currently only available for NBA betting, but it will soon be available for MLB and NHL betting, as well as NFL betting prior to the upcoming season.

This tool provides insight into how a player’s upcoming opponent has performed. Bettors can see what a team has allowed on a per-game basis in the following categories for the NBA:

• Points
• Assists
• Rebounds
• Blocks
• Steals

With this tool, bettors can see the total averages for those points, as well as the averages by position.

Matchup grades are also available on NBA Consistency Sheets and will become available for the other four sports once their Matchups tool goes live.
