The marquee football games are on tonight, but we still have some hoops out west to keep us occupied if you're not enamored with the ACC or Big Ten (18) Championship games.
We start in Salt Lake City with St. Mary's in town. Next up is the Centennial Cup from Boulder. We close this out in Spokane with Kentucky visiting. How about that game?!
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 12/7/24, 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

It's not often that you see a guard average a double-double with rebounds, but that's Clifford. He's an elite rebounder from his guard position and is one of the best scorers in a conference full of them. JT Toppin and Great Osobor fled the Mountain West. Clifford decided to stay in Fort Collins and he has been even better than last year.
Lamont Butler, Kentucky ($6.9K)
Butler was in foul trouble against Clemson earlier in the week, but he still finished with 16 points in 19 minutes. Kentucky runs about 10 deep so you're not getting huge minutes out of Butler, but the scoring has been outstanding. He has also picked up the assists and boards lately.
Miro Little, Utah ($6.2K)
Little is only averaging 8.9 points per game, but his true value lies in the peripherals. He is averaging 6.1 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game this year. He almost hit a double-double in assists and rebounds a couple of weeks ago. I'm a big fan of guys who don't rely on scoring for DFS production.
Kyan Evans, Colorado State ($4.2K)
Evans can be a high-volume scorer off the bench. When his shot isn't falling, he morphs into distributor mode and dishes out assists. His court awareness is his main asset and that doesn't always translate to DFS success. There is solid upside as a value play though.
Also consider: Ryan Nembhard, Gonzaga ($8K); Luke Barrett, St. Mary's ($7.4K); Jaxson Robinson, Kentucky ($6.3K); Julian Hammond III, Colorado ($5.8K); Kerr Kriisa, Kentucky ($4.6K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Mitchell Saxen, St.Mary's ($8.3K)

Saxen is going to go down as one of the best Gaels players ever. He's a constant double-double threat. Saxen just went over 1,000 career points and is the all-time leading rebounder in St. Mary's history. He's also in the top 10 in West Coast Conference history. He's a strong play in any situation.
Amari Williams, Kentucky ($7.2K)
Williams is one of the best rim protectors in the SEC. He also averages a shade over 10 rebounds per game. If he were a little more assertive on offense, Williams would be a double-double threat every night. He is tonight against this Gonzaga front.
Lawson Lovering, Utah ($6K)
Lovering didn't make his season debut until November 26, but he has made up for lost time. He has 57.75 DraftKings points in just 40 minutes of court time across two games. Lovering is way too cheap for the numbers he is capable of posting.
Bangot Dak, Colorado ($4.1K)
Dak's minutes have been trending upward lately. He paid it off with 29 DraftKings points in 25 minutes against Pacific earlier this week. Dak is a capable scorer, but his real value is on defense. He's a monster near the rim and strong on the glass. He might even pick up a steal or two if given enough court time.
Also consider: Trevor Baskin, Colorado ($7.1K); Paulius Murauskas, St. Mary's ($6.5K); Andrej Jakimovski, Colorado ($6.4K); Braden Huff, Gonzaga ($5.4K); Brandon Garrison, Kentucky ($4.2K)
