CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (11/20/24)

Mark Sears - CBB DFS Picks, NCAA Daily College Fantasy Basketball

We have a strong seven-game slate tonight with a couple of big matchups. We also have several impending blowouts, which can be tricky in DFS. Will that high-priced player be the one who does the damage to make it a blowout, or will he not go as hard as usual to keep himself fresh?

We start in Blacksburg with Jacksonville (the Florida one) in town. Iona heads to the mountains to take on West Virginia. Texas A&M hosts Southern University. Merrimack makes the trip over to Jersey to take on Rutgers. Illinois heads to Birmingham to take on Alabama. Long Beach State heads up to Washington to take on Gonzaga. We end the night in L.A. with San Jose State taking on USC.

This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 11/20/24, starting at 7 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

Dylan Harper, Rutgers ($8.8K)

The first three opponents for Rutgers would qualify as "easy" (though St. Peter's has made the NCAA Tournament twice in the last five years). It's still impressive that a freshman is putting up numbers like Harper is. He has 106 DraftKings points in three games and all of the scores are in the 30s. We should see consistency from Harper, at least until conference play begins.

Adam Clark, Merrimack ($8.2K)

Clark has played all but seven minutes in the first three games for the Warriors. Merrimack has played three solid teams in Vermont, Virginia Commonwealth, and Princeton. Clark has turned in strong outings in all three. I expect him to keep it going against a good but young Rutgers team.

Desmond Claude, USC ($6.9K) 

The circus moved over to the Staples Center, so USC basketball is back to a little bit of normalcy. Claude has been huge for the Trojans in their two competitive games. He has 46 points, 11 assists, nine rebounds, and two steals in the last two games. The Xavier transfer might be the best player the Trojans have right now.

Ace Bailey, Rutgers ($5.3K)

Enjoy the price on Ace while you can. It will only be this low once. Bailey dazzled in his collegiate debut with 17 points, six rebounds, two steals, and a block in 20 minutes against Monmouth. It's unlikely that the two freshmen sensations for Rutgers stay beyond this season, but they are going to make things entertaining for us this year!

Also consider: Ryan Nembhard, Gonzaga ($9K); Mark Sears, Alabama ($8.5K); Zhuric Phelps, Texas A&M ($7.3K); Labaron Philon, Alabama ($6.6K); Cam Amboree, Southern ($5.9K); Wesley Yates III, USC ($4.3K); Jonathan Powell, West Virginia ($4.1K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks

Saint Thomas, USC ($7.6K)

The Trojans were a popular transfer destination this year. Thomas came from Northern Colorado and has acclimated well to a power conference. San Jose lacks size. Thomas punished the three teams USC faced who were undersized. He has a good ceiling tonight.

Toibu Lawal, Virginia Tech ($7K)

This could be a big night for the Hokies frontcourt. Lawal and Mylyjael Poteat are high-energy players going against a weaker opponent. Lawal is my first pick, but it's easy enough to run both of them in a plus matchup.

Lathan Sommerville, Rutgers ($5.7K) 

The Scarlet Knights might have the best collection of freshmen since the Fab Five at Michigan. Sommerville is the lesser-known of the three, but he is averaging 11.7 points and 6.7 rebounds in the early going. Ace Bailey didn't steal any of his thunder. The three can not only coexist, but they can thrive together.

Henry Coleman III, Texas A&M ($5K)

Coleman only plays around 20 minutes per game, but they're a really good 20 minutes. He has at least six rebounds in every game and has scored in double figures in three of the four contests. He played a season-high in minutes against Ohio State. He should have another strong game against Southern.

Also consider: Tomislav Ivisic, Illinois ($8.3K); Graham Ike, Gonzaga ($7.4K); Grant Nelson, Alabama ($7.2K); Ben Humrichous, Illinois ($6.7K); Andersson Garcia, Texas A&M ($5.8K); Braden Huff, Gonzaga ($5.5K); Zach Martini, Rutgers ($4.7K); Eduardo Andre, West Virginia ($4.1K)
