CBB DFS: Main DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (3/9/24)

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

We take a break from the small conference tournaments to concentrate on the end of the regular season for the major conference teams. We have 30 games across three slates today and I will be with you the whole way! This is our last big college basketball Saturday. Next week we have conference tournaments and the weekend after that we have the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Those will have about eight games each. First, we will cover the 12-game main slate.

The nooners feature Georgetown in Queens to take on St. John's. Arkansas is in Tuscaloosa and Memphis heads to Boca for some beach ball. The afternoon starts in Oxford with the Aggies in town. West Virginia heads to Cincinnati. Oklahoma heads down to Austin for the Red River Shootout. It's Farmageddon at the Octagon of Doom. South Carolina heads to StarkVegas to take on the Bulldogs. Creighton is in Philly to take on Villanova. Kentucky heads down I-75 to Knoxville to take on the Vols. Kansas is in Houston in a massive Big 12 battle. We end in Tallahassee with Miami in town.

This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 3/9/24, starting at noon 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

Khalif Battle, Arkansas ($9.3K)

The days of getting Battle on the cheap are over...and they should be. Since rejoining the starting lineup six games ago, Battle is averaging 29 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.5 blocks, and 1.5 steals. Over the last four games, those averages ballooned to 34.3 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 blocks, and 1.8 steals. He could be five figures right now and I wouldn't bat an eye. Alabama plays faster than anyone else in the country. With Battle scoring the way he is, hitting that 35 average over the last four games seems likely. So does his fourth 50-plus DraftKings points a game in the last five outings.

Jayden Epps, Georgetown ($7.3K)

The Hoyas are playing better lately and it all starts at the point. Epps has at least 30 DraftKings points in four of the last five games. A 0-for-7 performance from the floor against Villanova prevented a fifth. Epps is averaging 21.2 points, 3.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 0.4 blocks, and 2.0 steals in that span. The first game of this run was the best game of the season for Epps and it just happened to be against St. John's. Epps put up 51.25 DraftKings points in that one. I doubt that he duplicates that feat, but over 30 seems likely.

Rivaldo Soares, Oklahoma ($6.2K)

Soares has between 23 and 27 DraftKings points in each of the last seven games. That includes games against Houston, Iowa State, Baylor, and Cincinnati. There is no upside to speak of, but the value is right for this price point and it's hard to ignore the consistency. The one thing that stands out to me was that Soares played 39 minutes against Cincinnati while not playing 30 in any of the other games. This shows potential for more points.

Manny Obaseki, Texas A&M ($4.8K)

Obaseki had only played more than 20 minutes in a game twice this season until the Tennessee game four games ago. He played well enough in the blowout loss that he got more time against South Carolina. Obaseki scored 11 points in just 15 minutes, so the Aggies have been leaning on him since. Obaseki has scored 29 points, brought in eight rebounds, dished out four assists, and picked off three steals over 56 minutes in the last two games. He's way too cheap if he's going to be playing this much.

Also consider: Baylor Scheierman, Creighton ($9.4K); Mark Sears, Alabama ($8.8K); Johnell Davis, Florida Atlantic ($8.1K); Antonio Reeves, Kentucky ($7.7K); Josh Hubbard, Mississippi State ($7.3K); Alijah Martin, Florida Atlantic ($7.2K); Wooga Poplar, Miami ($6.9K); Dajuan Harris Jr., Kansas ($6.4K); Justin Moore, Villanova ($5.8K); Jizzle James, Cincinnati ($5.2K); Nicolas Timberlake, Kansas ($4.7K); Hakim Hart, Villanova ($4.3K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks

David Jones, Memphis ($9.7K)

We'll call that stinker against Charlotte what it was: an outlier. Jones has at least 38 DraftKings points in every other game since the start of February. He has even cleared 50 four times. FAU is a good team, but they aren't known for their size. Jones put up 49.75 DraftKings points on the Owls in the first meeting. This has the feeling of a day when he's going to crack 50 again.

Nae'Qwan Tomlin, Memphis ($7.7K)

Jones and Tomlin are finally doing what Memphis thought they would do when Penny Hardaway lured Tomlin away from Kansas State. The transfer rule kept Tomlin out until late January and he struggled to fit in with his new team at first. Now he's forming a formidable duo with Jones. Tomlin has averaged 20.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 0.4 assists, 1.4 blocks, and 1.3 steals over the last five games. He's scoring more than he did at K-State, but the peripherals haven't taken a hit at all.

Dillon Mitchell, Texas ($5.9K)

This is a tough matchup against Oklahoma, but Dylan Disu sprained his knee against Baylor on Monday. Considering Disu's knee injury last year likely cost Texas a chance at a deep tournament run, I would be very surprised if Disu plays in this game. Texas can't improve their seeding with this game. The Big 12 tournament will be much more important. Neutral site wins count more than home wins against ranked teams. I expect Mitchell to start and play meaningful minutes in this one. Kadin Shedrick is also a great option if you need to go cheaper.

Drew Fielder, Georgetown ($3.9K)

Fielder's minutes are still inconsistent, but the production hasn't been. Fielder has scored in double figures in DraftKings points in five straight games. One of those was against St. John's when he put up 13 DraftKings points in 13 minutes. He did play 24 minutes against Providence this week and 18 against Villanova three games ago. There's a chance that he could see minutes in the high teens, which could do wonders for his value.

Also consider: Hunter Dickinson, Kansas ($9.2K); Jesse Edwards, West Virginia ($8.5K); Joel Soriano, St. John's ($7.5K); Jonas Aidoo, Tennessee ($7.2K); Vladislav Goldin, Florida Atlantic ($7.1K); Jalon Moore, Oklahoma ($6.8K); Aziz Bandaogo, Cincinnati ($6.1K); Robert Jones, Iowa State ($5.4K); Glenn Taylor Jr., St. John's ($4.7K)
