We are at a special time during college basketball season. We are not locked into two busy mid-week days with nothing on Thursday and Friday yet. We have a loaded Friday slate with tomorrow reserved for football. Let's take advantage! We have a couple of earlier tips tonight with Florida in Tallahassee and TCU in Ann Arbor. Make sure to get those lineups set!
We have a marquee game in West Lafayette with Alabama in town, but the jerks put it on Peacock. Temple climbs Chestnut Hill. We have SMU at college basketball's Mecca (Hinkle Fieldhouse) to take on Butler. Penn State takes on the Hokies in Baltimore. Marquette is a few doors down in College Park to take on the Terps. It's Clean Old Fashioned Hate on the hardwood before the gridiron in Atlanta tonight. We close this out with the Backyard Basketball Brawl in Pittsburgh.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 11/15/24, starting at 6 p.m. EST. 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
Kevin Miller, SMU ($8.8K)
Boopie Miller (Wake Forest➡️SMU) with a near triple-double for SMU last night:
20 points
9 assists
9 rebounds
3 steals
7-13 FG pic.twitter.com/9KJCLOfPCR— The Portal Report (@ThePortalReport) November 8, 2024
Miller hasn't slowed down since that performance, either. He has 62 points, 15 rebounds, 23 assists, and eight steals in three games for SMU. The Wake Forest transfer is taking Dallas by storm in his first season there. I will always make room in my lineup for a well-rounded player like Miller.
Jamal Mashburn Jr., Temple ($7K)
Mashburn has 71 points scored in just three games so far this season. He's one of the better scorers in the country right now. He's not putting up a lot of peripherals aside from steals (five), but the scoring is more than enough in this price range in a plus matchup.
Donald Hand Jr., Boston College ($6.9K)
I don't usually choose two players this close in price, but both of them are huge bargains tonight. Hand has 39 points, 18 rebounds, two steals, and a block in the first two games of the season but hasn't been priced up. We can take advantage and build a nice lineup in the middle tier tonight.
Finley Bizjack, Butler ($4.6K)
Kolby King was supposed to be the star guard for the Bulldogs, but it has been Bizjack energizing the backcourt in the early going. Bizjack has 30 points, 18 rebounds, 18 assists, three steals, and two blocks in three games. That's outstanding production for this price!
Also consider: Mark Sears, Alabama ($8.9K); Jamir Watkins, Florida State ($8.1K); Dakota Leffew, Georgia ($7.8K); Cam Carter, LSU ($7.1K); B.J. Edwards, SMU ($6.4K); Kowacie Reeves Jr., Georgia Tech ($5.8K); Jonathan Powell, West Virginia ($3.3K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Baye Ndongo, Georgia Tech ($8.2K)
Big game tonight by Georgia Tech sophomore Baye Ndongo today in the win over Texas Southern
19 points
11 boards
1 assist
5-10 FG
1-1 3P
8-10 FTHad an awesome freshman year and tested the draft waters, but ultimately decided to come back and develop at GT. Sophomore sleeper pic.twitter.com/1PkUZokKdS
— nbadraftpoint (@draftpoint2024) November 13, 2024
Not many players have the ceiling that Ndongo does. He has 49 points, 28 rebounds, eight assists, three blocks, and two steals in the first three games of the season. Ndongo struggled at times as a freshman last year, but he is playing more minutes so far this year since he is staying out of foul trouble. We could see a monster year from Ndongo in 2024-25.
Cameron Corhen, Pittsburgh ($6.7K)
The Florida State transfer has been a good fit for Pitt so far. He has 37 points, 21 rebounds, five steals, four assists, and two blocks through three games. Most of the Pitt offense comes from the guards, but Corhen gives it a scorer up front that the Panthers lacked last year.
Yohan Traore, SMU ($5K)
The UCSB transfer has looked good in the early going for the Ponies. Traore has 34 points, 21 rebounds, three assists, three blocks, and a steal in his first three games for SMU. He and Miller are already clicking for SMU and both of them are very affordable.
Taylor Bol Bowen, Florida State ($4.2K)
This isn't an easy matchup for the Seminoles, but I can't pass on Bol Bowen at this price. This is a deep Florida State team that will run 10 or more players per game. Bol Bowen is averaging the second-most minutes, scoring 27 points, grabbing 18 rebounds, and picking up six steals, six blocks, and two assists for good measure. His defensive stats are off the charts for someone at this price.
Also consider: Danny Wolf, Michigan ($9K); Derik Queen, Maryland ($7.7K); Toibu Lawal, Virginia Tech ($7.5K); David Joplin, Marquette ($7.3K); RJ Godfrey, Georgia ($6.3K); Yanic Konan Niederhauser, Penn State ($5.6K); Amani Hansberry, West Virginia ($4.1K)
