How do I use projections effectively?

Projections on each athlete or team card are a starting point, not an answer. Some ways experienced players use them:

1. Look at the gap between projections. If the top six projections are tightly bunched, rankings can flip with a single play — consider Best6. If there's a clear gap, Exacta6 may give you an edge.

2. Compare projection to matchup. If an athlete's projection looks low relative to a favorable matchup, you may have found value.

3. Factor in recent trends. Projections use history, but hot streaks and slumps can outpace historical averages. Use the app's recent-form indicators alongside projections.

4. Don't anchor. Projections are informational — not betting odds and not a guarantee. Final scoring is based only on official game statistics.
