There is not a big turnaround with these holiday tournaments, but I will get these slates up as soon as I can. The early slate is usually available right away in the morning. For the others, I have to wait for lunch at my other job to get them up, so here we go! We have three games from Maui on this slate starting with Memphis and Michigan State. Iowa State and Dayton take care of the middle game with Auburn-North Carolina ending the slate.
We get the final of the Sunshine Slam between IUPFW and Radford. We get a top 10 showdown between Houston and Alabama in Vegas. Rutgers and Notre Dame is the nightcap there. We also have Duke and Kansas from T-Mobile Arena in Vegas for a different tournament. This slate is loaded!
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 11/26/24, 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
Cooper Flagg, Duke ($9.5K)
There is no 1A and 1B.

Flagg has been as advertised for Duke this year. Is he enough to beat Kansas? Do we care? Players have great DFS games in losses all the time. This isn't hockey. You don't get extra points for a win. Win or lose, Flagg is going to stuff the stat sheet and I'm here for it.
Markus Burton, Notre Dame ($8.4K)
Burton is an elite scorer for the Irish (21.4 points per game), but he also averages 5.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists, and 1.6 steals per game. He does everything for the Irish. Rutgers just lost to Kennesaw State last week. Burton and the Irish could be in for a big game here.
Seth Trimble, North Carolina ($6.4K)
Trimble had a huge game in the opener of the Maui Invitational last night (this morning) against Dayton. He put up 27 points and hauled in 10 rebounds in one of the finest games of his career. DraftKings priced him up accordingly, but it's still not enough to chase me off. Maybe he really likes Maui...
Chad Baker-Mazara, Auburn ($5.2K)
Baker-Mazara battled knee discomfort in the loss to Iowa State yesterday but is good to go again tonight. Baker-Mazara has scored 42 points in the last three games in just 66 minutes. He's instant scoring off the bench for an Auburn team that is going to need it again tonight.
Also consider: Dylan Harper, Rutgers ($8.8K); PJ Haggerty, Memphis ($7.9K); Enoch Cheeks, Dayton ($7.5K); Labaron Philon, Alabama ($7K); Kon Knueppel, Duke ($6.7K); Curtis Jones, Iowa State ($6.5K); Quinton Morton-Robertson, IPFW ($6.3K); Emanuel Sharp, Houston ($5.8K); Latrell Wrightsell Jr., Alabama ($5.4K); Colby Rogers, Memphis ($5.1K); Terrance Arceneaux, Houston ($4.2K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Hunter Dickinson, Kansas ($10K)
THE FRESHMAN VS. THE VET IN VEGAS ?

This is the college basketball version of Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson. Any coincidence that it's in Vegas as well? This time the veteran might win, but I have a feeling that both of them will be productive for DFS purposes. The only games in which Dickinson hasn't recorded a double-double were Howard and Oakland. He's good for a double-double tonight.
Joshua Jefferson, Iowa State ($6.2K)
This Iowa State front hounded Auburn last night and will do the same to Dayton tonight. Jefferson followed up his double-double against IUPUI with eight points and nine rebounds against Auburn. He is carving out a larger role for the Cyclones and putting up good DFS numbers in the process.
Ace Bailey, Rutgers ($5.8K)
Bailey had a couple of freshman moments against Kennesaw, but he's still one of the better talents on the court tonight. His price is too low for the potential. He and Dylan Harper have proven they can co-exist for DFS purposes.
Dylan Cardwell, Auburn ($3.8K)
There is some great value in Auburn role players. Cardwell stuffs the stat sheet when he's in there. We could argue that he would have played even more last night if not for foul trouble. I expect another solid all-around performance from Cardwell tonight. He should flirt with 20 DraftKings points again.
Also consider: Johni Broome Auburn ($9.7K); Grant Nelson, Alabama ($7.7K); Eric Mulder, IPFW ($7.1K); Nate Santos, Dayton ($6.5K); Dain Dainja, Memphis ($6K); Dishon Jackson, Iowa State ($5.5K); Kebba Njie, Notre Dame ($5.2K); Moussa Cisse, Memphis ($4.9K)
