Most of the holiday tournaments come to a close tonight, so we have a good selection of games on here. We gin the night at Rupp Arena with Georgia State in town. The Seattle Redhawks get the opportunity of a lifetime when they visit Cameron Indoor.
We go back to Atlantis for the fifth-place game between Gonzaga and Davidson. We have the Acrisure Championship from Palm Springs between Arizona State and St. Mary's. We close this out with the end of the Acrisure Tournament with the third-place game between New Mexico and USC
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 11/29/24, starting at 7 p.m. EST. I’ll give 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
Ryan Nembhard, Gonzaga ($8.6K)
Ryan Nembhard this season:
• 72 Assists (10.3 APG)
• 12 Turnovers (1.7 per game)Elite ballhandler. pic.twitter.com/Z2WnkFs9Is
— College Basketball Report (@CBKReport) November 28, 2024
The elite ball-handling is why we play Nembhard. Any scoring we get from him (11.3 points per game) is just a bonus. What makes those numbers from Nembhard more impressive is he only played 25 minutes in one game and 28 in another. The elite ball-handling will be on display again tonight.
Connor Kochera, Davidson ($7.5K)
Kochera continues to score at an elite level in Atlantis. He has averaged 17.7 points per game on the season but has upped it to 21 points in this tournament against Providence and Arizona. He should be able to hold his own against Gonzaga's guards.
Joson Sanon, Arizona State ($6.3K)
Sanon has been a force for the Sun Devils. The only game in which he hasn't scored at least 18 points was the Gonzaga game that he left with a back injury. New Mexico was able to keep him off the boards, but I'm not sure that St. Mary's can. This is a really good matchup for Sanon and the price is right.
Lamont Butler, Kentucky ($5.5K)
It took Butler a bit to find his footing after transferring from San Diego State, but he has been a force in the last three games. Butler has 41 points, 10 assists, 10 rebounds, and four steals in those three games. He's stuffing the stat sheet at a very reasonable price.
Also consider: Donovan Dent, New Mexico ($8.3K); Otega Oweh, Kentucky ($7.2K); Khalif Battle, Gonzaga ($6.7K); Tyrese Proctor, Duke ($6.3K); Jaxson Robinson, Kentucky ($5.8K); Jordan Ross, St. Mary's ($5K); Caleb Foster, Duke ($4.5K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Cooper Flagg, Duke ($8.4K)
Cooper Flagg is the fastest player in Duke history to record:
100+ PTS
50+ REB
20+ AST pic.twitter.com/EuP3LQcYTl— StatMamba (@StatMamba) November 27, 2024
Flagg does everything for Duke. I wouldn't be worried about the stat line from the Kansas game or about the blowout nature of this game. Flagg had at least 37 DraftKings points per game in every game before Kansas. He put up elite numbers even in blowouts.
Mustapha Amzil, New Mexico ($7.9K)
Amzil isn't quite the force that JT Toppin is on the interior, but he has expanded his game since Toppin left. Amzil is averaging 15 points and 6.7 rebounds per game. The blowout win over Texas Southern was the only game in which Amzil didn't reach 30 DraftKings points. He doesn't have the upside of Flagg, but he has the consistency you covet in a cash lineup.
Basheer Jihad, Arizona State ($7.3K)
Jihad only scored a combined five points in the first two games but has scored 90 points in the last five. He's an efficient scorer who is strong on the boards. Jihad has added another dimension to this Arizona State team. They're going to be a tough out, even in the stacked Big 12 (16).
Ben Gregg, Gonzaga ($4.6K)
Gregg has been a strong bench player throughout his career in Spokane. This year he is averaging 7.4 points, 4.7 rebounds, 0.6 steals, 0.6 assists, and 0.6 blocks in 18 minutes per game. The good news is that he played 45 minutes in the first two games at Atlantis. We'll see more good bench production out of him tonight.
Also consider: Reed Bailey, Davidson ($8.2K); Bobby Durkin, Davidson ($7.8K); Kon Knueppel, Duke ($6.9K); Graham Ike, Gonzaga ($5.9K); Brandon Garrison, Kentucky ($4.9K)
