This is a week for giving thanks, but not just for the conventional reasons. We have several college basketball tournaments going on and all 134 FBS college football teams are in action against FBS teams for the only time this season. That's 67 college football games that I get to pick against the spread in between watching enough hoops to stay informed for DFS purposes. This is going to be a fun week and I'll be with you the whole way!
We get Michigan-Virginia Tech and Xavier-South Carolina from Fort Myers. We get Clemson-San Francisco from Daytona Beach. DraftKings even gave us a campus game from The Super Pit with Oregon State in town to face North Texas. We end the night with the final two games from the first day of the Maui Invitational. The first game is Iowa State and Auburn. The nightcap brings us North Carolina against Dayton.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 11/25/24, 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
Tamin Lipsey, Iowa State ($7.9K)

Lipsey is again contributing across the board in the early going last season. He was among the league leaders in steals last year and is near the top already this year. His scoring is up about a point per game and everything else is in line for another big season. I'll trust him against anyone simply because of the games he had against Houston last year.
Damarco Minor, Oregon State ($7.3K)
Minor has put up great numbers on both ends of the court for the Beavers so far. He is averaging 10.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 2.8 steals, and 0.6 blocks per game in 28 minutes. He should play more minutes against North Texas and put up another strong stat line.
Roddy Gayle Jr, Michigan ($5.9K)
In the offseason, Gayle did the unthinkable. He transferred from Ohio State to Michigan. It has been a good decision for him so far. Gayle has at least 20 DraftKings points in every game thanks to strong numbers across the board. If you can get over that kind of betrayal, he belongs in your lineup.
Seth Trimble, North Carolina ($5.5K)
RJ Davis has been cold to start the year, so the rest of the Carolina backcourt has stepped up in his stead. This makes Carolina a better team. Trimble has scored at least 13 points in every game and gives solid rebound numbers as well.
Also consider: Keshon Gilbert, Iowa State ($7.7K); Elliot Cadeau, North Carolina ($7K); Malik Thomas, San Francisco ($6.7K); Tre Donaldson, Michigan ($6.2K); Nimari Burnett, Michigan ($5.4K); Chad Baker-Mazara, Auburn ($5.2K); Javon Bennett, Dayton ($5.1K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Michael Rataj, Oregon State ($8.5K)

Rataj has posted three double-doubles in five games this year. In the two games that he missed that mark, he played a combined 55 minutes. Rataj has been a force for the Beavers so far and could have a huge night against the North Texas front tonight.
Zach Freemantle, Xavier ($6.8K)
Freemantle has looked every bit as good as he did before injury took away much of the last two years. He is averaging 15.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.6 steals, and 0.6 blocks so far this year. He's going to have his hands full against South Carolina, but I'm not passing on this kind of production at this price.
Dishon Jackson, Iowa State ($5.8K)
The Cyclones brought in Jackson from Charlotte to beef up the interior. He has been a beast on the glass with 22 rebounds in just 55 minutes. I'm excited to see what Jackson can do in a competitive game. If this stays close, he could have a huge game with 25-30 minutes of production.
Brenen Lorient, North Texas ($4.5K)
Lorient has been a good scorer for North Texas in limited minutes. His minutes have increased in every game this season. North Texas is going to need the offense against Oregon State tonight. Lorient should give us a solid total for the price.
Also consider: Johni Broome Auburn ($10K); Ian Schieffelin, Clemson ($7.5K); Nate Santos, Dayton ($6.8K); Chaney Johnson, Auburn ($6.5K); Zed Key, Dayton ($5.3K); Parsa Fallah, Oregon State ($4.7K)
