DraftKings CBB DFS Lineup Picks For 12/24/23 - Daily Fantasy College Basketball Advice

Today's DraftKings college basketball DFS lineup picks for 12/24/23. Mike Marteny's CBB daily fantasy advice and lineup sleepers to help you win on DraftKings.

Christmas Eve brings us some holiday hoops from Honolulu, the night after the Hawaii Bowl. It's a good 24 hours of sports on the islands with all four games today coming from the Diamond Head Classic. It's the only game in town, so let's get playing!

The first game of the day is Temple against Portland. Next up is Old Dominion facing UMass. TCU faces Hawaii to get the evening session started. Then we close this out with Nevada facing Georgia Tech.

In this article, I will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/24/23, starting at 1:30 PM Eastern. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions at guard and forward, aiming to highlight one option at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CBB DFS Guards

Hysier Miller, Temple ($8,400)

Temple has been smoked in two games out in Honolulu, but don't blame Miller. He has 38 points, 10 rebounds, seven assists, and a steal in the two games. They now face Portland for last place out in Hawaii. Whatever the outcome, you can bet that Miller will have another strong game. Miller has at least 25 DraftKings points in every game this season.

Keon Thompson, Massachusetts ($6,100)

Thompson has played well out in Hawaii. He has 20 points, 10 assists, nine rebounds, four steals, and a block (with only one turnover) in the two games. That's what Thompson has been doing all season. He doesn't stack one particular category, but Thompson does a little bit of everything well. He feels cheap here considering his production so far.

Daniel Foster, Nevada ($5,000)

K.J. Hymes came down with an illness out in Hawaii and he is expected to miss this game as well. Foster started the last two games in place of Hymes and put up 53.5 DraftKings points in 66 minutes. I'll definitely take that for the price. The Pack won both games, so Foster may stick in the starting lineup even if Hymes returns.

Also consider: Vasean Allette, Old Dominion ($8.300); Miles Kelly, Georgia Tech ($7,100); Jarod Lucas, Nevada ($6,700); Rahsool Diggins, Massachusetts ($6,000);  Jayden Ndjigue, Massachusetts ($5,700); Naithan George, Georgia Tech ($5,400); Shane Dezonie, Temple ($4,200)

DraftKings CBB DFS Forwards

Emanuel Miller, TCU ($8,600)

Miller remains a priority for me because there wasn't a team in Honolulu that could match his size. This is also true of the host team. Miller has 45 points and 15 rebounds in 51 minutes in Honolulu. Expect a similarly strong performance tonight. Miller hasn't been under 27 DraftKings points yet this year and hasn't been under 30 in over a month. (November 21).

Baye Ndongo, Georgia Tech ($7,500)

I remember watching Ndongo early in the season before he started. That game against Duke proved to me that he can not just be successful in a league like the ACC, but he can be dominant. He's a freshman, so there will still be growing pains from time to time. Those times are becoming fewer and farther between. There's not a player on the slate that has the ceiling he has. Ndongo is my first click in GPPs.

Tafara Gapare, Georgia Tech ($4,200)

Gapare has performed better than Tyzhaun Claude lately for the Bees, but Tech still started Claude against UMass in the Diamond Head opener. That should be a thing of the past. Gapare went nuts against Penn State before the trip out to the islands and had a big game against Hawaii last night. I would be surprised if Gapare doesn't keep starting until he slows down.

Also consider: Matt Cross, Massachusetts ($8,200); Bernardo da Silva, Hawaii ($6,900); JaKobe Coles, TCU ($5,900); Justin McKoy, Hawaii ($5,600)
