A player is awarded to the team that submits the highest bid. In the event of a tie, the following criteria will be used:
- The player is awarded to the team with the lowest total season-to-date points.
- If a tie still remains, the tiebreaker proceeds to the starting lineup: the team whose lowest-scoring starting player that week had the fewest points will win the bid. If necessary, this comparison continues down the lineup—second-lowest scorer, third-lowest, and so on.
