Best Play Here
If you're holding all four tiles, paly, play, pyal, and pyla are your only highest scoring words, each worth 9 base points before board bonuses. Missing a letter or two? alp, aly, and apl are solid 3-letter fallbacks that stay valid across every dictionary here. Since A, L, P, and Y don't repeat, you can also hold back a tile like the P or Y and rebuild toward a different word next turn instead of dumping the whole rack at once.
