The Big Ten (18) has even taken over Big Monday! Two of the three games on the slate come from that conference with an ACC tilt to add to the fun. A college basketball fan could get used to this!
We begin in College Park with the Gophers in town. UCLA is in Jersey to take on Rutgers. We end the night early in South Bend with Boston College in town. It's Monday Massketball in South Bend.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 1/13/25, starting at 6:30 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
Markus Burton, Notre Dame ($7.6K)

34 mins

5 rebs
2 assts
1 blk

Burton found his shot against Duke. Now he just needs to put everything together again. That should come tonight against Boston College and the price still hasn't adjusted. He was a $9K player last year and in the mid-$8K range before he got hurt this year. He's a bargain tonight for what the ceiling is.
Donald Hand Jr., Boston College ($7K)
Hand is more than just a scorer, but he doesn't always score. He has more volatility due to this, but when his shot is falling, the ceiling is high when he pulls down more than five rebounds per game. Hand has only had less than five rebounds in a game once this season.
Tyson Acuff, Rutgers ($4.2K)
Acuff picked up some slack when Dylan Harper was out and has performed well with him still feeling under the weather last week. Harper will explode again sometime soon and that will likely come at Acuff's expense. However, I think he'll have a larger bench role due to his January performance so far.
Also consider: Ja'Kobi Gillespie, Maryland ($8.2K); Dylan Harper, Rutgers ($7.4K); Braeden Shrewsberry, Notre Dame ($6.6K); Rodney Rice, Maryland ($6.1K); Femi Odukale, Minnesota ($5.7K); Joshua Beadle, Boston College (5.1K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Julian Reese, Maryland ($8.8K)

Freshman sensation Derik Queen has had a couple of bad games in January already. Meanwhile, Reese is old reliable, posting yet another double-double. Queen's production hasn't cramped Reese's style much. He's still getting numbers of his own. Expect another solid outing from Reese tonight.
Chad Venning, Boston College ($6.3K)
Venning has quietly been a beast for BC lately. He has at least 25 DraftKings points in four straight games since Christmas. The Irish don't have a strong inside presence. I expect Venning to be the best point-per-dollar play on the slate. He will be in every one of my lineups.
Tafara Gapare, Maryland ($3.8K)
The Georgia Tech transfer has had a hard time getting minutes in the crowded Maryland front, but he has provided some much-needed defense off the bench in the last couple of games. The Terps should need Gapare for 15-20 minutes against the Minnesota front tonight too.
Also consider: Ace Bailey, Rutgers ($9.4K); Dawson Garcia, Minnesota ($8.4K); Kebba Njie, Notre Dame ($4.9K); Dylan Grant, Rutgers ($3.5K)
