We have a full day of CBI basketball from Daytona to keep us occupied on DraftKings. College basketball is winding down, but the CBI has featured some good teams in it over the years. Some of the teams in action today are ones that we took a look at during conference tournaments and a couple of other smaller days during the regular season.
The nooner features Cleveland State and High Point, two teams who looked solid in their conference tournaments. Next up is Montana and Arkansas State. Chicago State and Fairfield is the next game up. Evansville and Seattle close out the day of quarterfinals in Daytona.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 3/24/24, starting at 12:10 p.m. EDT. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions at guard and forward, aiming to highlight one option at the salary scale's high, middle, and lower levels. Good luck, RotoBallers.

Today's DraftKings Guards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Caleb Fields, Fairfield ($7.6K)
We have a situation here that we haven't seen on a DraftKings slate this year in college basketball. There are two players with the same name. Both are decent options, but make sure you click on the Fairfield Caleb Fields if you want the best upside of the two.
Jalen Leach entered the transfer portal and will play his final season elsewhere. That should open up a few more looks for Fields. He is already the leading scorer for the Stags, so don't expect a huge uptick there. He has played the entire game in four of the last five games, so don't expect a minutes uptick either. The assists should increase a little as they did in the opening round against UALR. This is a good matchup for Fields as the new leader of this squad. Jasper Floyd is now his Robin and is also a nice play if you're looking to stack the Fairfield backcourt.
Alex Schumacher, Seattle ($6.6K)
I have to highlight at least one player on here who isn't overly reliant on points. What sticks out to me are his two strong games against a good Grand Canyon team. Schumacher has at least 25 DraftKings points in all five March games thanks to a surge in assist and steal numbers, not to mention a very nice uptick in rebounds. Evansville is statistically the best matchup on the slate for guards, so I will anchor most lines with Schumacher.
Gage Bobe, Evansville ($4.6K)
Bobe didn't see a meaningful increase in minutes until the beginning of February, but he has been a strong contributor for the Aces since. He topped that off with a great game against Quinnipiac in the opening round, scoring 11 points in 37 minutes and ending with 28.75 DraftKings points. Hopefully, that is a sign of things to come.
Also consider: Wesley Cardet Jr., Chicago State ($8.2K); Aanen Moody, Montana ($7.4K); Josh Vazquez, Montana ($7K); Abdoulaye Thiam, High Point ($6.7K); Freddy Hicks, Arkansas State ($6.5K); Tanner Cuff, Evansville ($5.3K); Derrian Ford, Arkansas State ($4.7K); John Christofilis, Seattle ($3.9K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Tristan Enaruna, Cleveland State ($7.5K)
Enaruna was the Horizon League Player of the Year for a reason. He opened the CBI with this in a hard-fought game against Dalton Knecht's former squad, Northern Colorado.
TRISTAN ENARUNA WINS IT AT THE BUZZER!!! @TristanEnaruna hits the awkward deep jump-shot AT THE BUZZER to win it for (9) Cleveland State 51-49 over (8) Northern Colorado in the Ro CBI 1st Round pic.twitter.com/WfFWMuM2Dj
— NCAA Buzzer Beaters & Game Winners (@NCAABuzzerBters) March 24, 2024
What will he do for an encore? Well, if he can put up 40.5 DraftKings points in a game that featured 100 points total, I have high hopes for what will be a higher-scoring game against High Point.
Dylan Arnett, Cleveland State ($5.5K)
Arnett scored just one point in the first-round game last night but still picked up 18.5 DraftKings points in the win over Northern Colorado. That's what I'm after. I'm after the board-crasher who is normally efficient from the floor coming off of a subpar game. Arnett's floor is rather high for a mid-range value play. He scored 39 points in the first four games of March. Expect this to be a better game for Arnett.
Alexis Yetna, Fairfield ($4.8K)
Yetna entered the starting lineup for the Stags on March 9. He has averaged 9.8 points, 8.2 rebounds, 0.4 assists, 1.0 blocks, and 1.6 steals per game since. He's still underpriced in this range and is the value play that we need on this slate. Chicago State had a losing record this year and has played one game since February 19. I expect a nice showing from Yetna here.
Also consider: Kimani Hamilton, High Point ($8K); Izaiyah Nelson, Arkansas State ($6.8K); Laolu Oke, Montana ($6.6K); Yacine Toumi, Evansville ($5.7K); Cameron Jernigan, Chicago State ($5.1K); Juslin Bodo Bodo, High Point ($4.9K); Jayson Woodrich, Cleveland State ($4.6K)
