Hey, aren't Sundays supposed to be for the NFL? Not in my universe! It's round-the-clock college basketball. Well, at least it will be after the winter break. We have seven games today to distract us from the NFL. We start early in Nassau, with St. John's taking on Georgia.
We get three of the four games from Charleston. For some reason, DraftKings chopped off the Championship Game between Drake and Vanderbilt. We get Villanova and Maryland from the Empire Classic in Newark. We also have both games from the Greenbrier Tip-Off in West Virginia. This is going to be fun!
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 11/24/24, starting at 11 a.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
Max Shulga, Virginia Commonwealth ($8.5K)
VCU senior Max Shulga has a chance to be one of the best players in the country this season.
Shulga is one of the best European NCAA players in the country
he came from Ukraine to Utah state after averaging 13 PPG in U18 division B.

Shulga has had identical 32.25 DraftKings points outputs in the first two games in Charleston. Miami has let a couple of guards get to them in Charleston (Drake's Bennett Stirtz and Oklahoma State's Bryce Thompson). We could see a big game from Shulga today.
Nijel Pack, Miami (FL) ($7.5K)
Pack has been a consistent force for the Hurricanes so far this year. He has at least 28 DraftKings points in every game. Even in games where he hasn't scored up to his usual standards, he finds other ways to contribute. Miami has struggled in Charleston, but don't blame Pack.
Zeb Jackson, Virginia Commonwealth ($6.7K)
Jackson didn't make his debut until these two games in Charleston. He's off to a good start with 33 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, four steals, and a block over 56 minutes. Shulga is still the star of the team, but Jackson's production isn't far off and he's significantly cheaper.
John Blackwell, Wisconsin ($5.1K)
Blackwell's hot shooting has carried the Badgers lately. He scored a career-high 30 in the thrilling win over Texas-Rio Grande Valley and put in 17 points on 6-of-10 shooting in the first game at Greenbrier against UCF. Look for him to finish this mini-tournament strong.
Also consider: Jaland Lowe, Pittsburgh ($9K); Ja'Kobi Gillespie, Maryland ($7.7K); John Tonje, Wisconsin ($7.3K); Isaiah Coleman, Seton Hall ($6.3K); Blue Cain, Georgia ($6K); Bryce Thompson, Oklahoma State ($5.5K); Chaunce Jenkins, Seton Hall ($5.3K); Leland Walker, Florida Atlantic ($4.9K); Dakota Leffew, Georgia ($4.4K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Eric Dixon, Villanova ($9.4K)
Eric Dixon is the best player in college basketball.
✅ 24.4 PPG
✅ 7.7 RPG
✅ 56% 3P%
✅ 56% FG%
✅ 100% FT%17 made threes on 30 attempts.

Dixon has scored at least 20 points in all five games while collecting at least six rebounds. There's a short list of players with that kind of production. When Dixon does that against a solid defensive team like Virginia, I pay attention. Maryland is going to have their hands full with Dixon today.
Nick Davidson, Nevada ($7.9K)
Even though Davidson has averaged 16 points per game this year, it is his peripherals that keep us coming back. He has one of the safer floors around. Davidson only scored nine points against Vanderbilt but still had a productive night thanks to his work on the glass.
Zuby Ejiofor, St. John's ($5.9K)
Ejiofor is still criminally underpriced. He had another strong game against Virginia on Friday, giving Ejiofor 75.75 DraftKings points in the two games in the Bahamas. Expect a strong end to the festivities against Georgia today.
Cameron Corhen, Pittburgh ($5.4K)
The lack of mid-range forwards is more than made up for by the value tier. Corhen has at least 12 points and five rebounds in every game, which gives him an excellent floor. He doesn't have huge upside against Wisconsin, but the Florida State transfer should continue his consistently good production.
Also consider: RJ Luis Jr., St. John's ($9.2K); Asa Newell, Georgia ($8.8K); Marchelus Avery, Oklahoma State ($6.3K); Baba Miller, Florida Atlantic ($5.7K); Abou Ousmane, Oklahoma State ($5.6K); Jack Clark, Virginia Commonwealth ($5K); Guillermo Diaz Graham, Pittsburgh ($4.6K); Tre Coleman, Nevada ($4.3K)
