DraftKings does it again. The good is 15 games on the slate for Super Tuesday. The bad is that they didn't split the slates evenly. The ugly is the three-game night slate when they could have split this into seven and eight games if they put the 9 p.m. start times on the night slate. Those slates are the perfect size. Three-game slates don't offer many avenues to get different from the pack, but that's what I'm here for.
We start the red eye in Fresno with Utah State in town. Next up is Nevada up in Fort Collins to take on Colorado State. We end this back out on the West Coast with San Jose heading down to San Diego to take on the Aztecs.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for the main slate on DraftKings on 2/27/24, starting at 10 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
Isaiah Stevens, Colorado State ($8.3K)
Stevens has at least 28 DraftKings points in six straight games and 10 of the last 12. He only put up 26.75 DraftKings points on Nevada the first time, but he made just four out of his 16 shot attempts from the floor. Much like Jamal Shead on the main slate, it's highly unlikely that Stevens will shoot that poorly again... especially at home. He's a low-risk option at the top tonight.
Alvaro Cardenas, San Jose State ($6.3K)
Cardenas is a very efficient scorer for a guard and one of the more underrated passers in the seventh power conference. We'll forget the oh-for disaster against Boise since he put up enough peripheral numbers to have a decent day still. Aside from that game, Cardenas has scored in double figures in the rest of the last eight games. One of those was against the Aztecs.
Darrion Trammell, San Diego State ($5.4K)
Trammell is one of my favorite value plays every time San Diego State is in action because he doesn't rely on scoring for his DFS production. He can score, but that only increases his ceiling over the higher floor he has compared to his peers. Trammell plays a lot of minutes, is an underrated passer, a strong defender, and is decent on the boards. He does a little bit of everything.
Also consider: Myron Amey Jr., San Jose State ($8.2K); Darius Brown II, Utah State ($7.7K); Jarod Lucas, Nevada ($6.9K); Micah Parrish, San Diego State ($5.8K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Jaedon LeDee, San Diego State ($8.6K)
The Spartans had no answer for LeDee in the first meeting. LeDee put up a double-double with 31 points and 10 rebounds en route to 47 DraftKings points. That is still LeDee's best outing of the conference season and his third-best on the campaign. That was also in a road environment. It's fair to expect another big outing from LeDee here.
Jay Pal, San Diego State ($5.3K)
Pal doesn't have much of a ceiling, but his rebounding and defense give him a good floor. He plays about the same amount of minutes whether he starts or comes off the bench. Pal put up a strong 25.75 DraftKings points on San Jose State in their first meeting in 22 minutes. He should play at least that many minutes tonight, which makes him a very strong play in this price range.
Leo Colimerio, Fresno State ($5.2K)
There is no word on what is ailing Enoch Boakye, but Colimerio has been filling in nicely for him. Colimerio has averaged 13.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.3 blocks, and 0.3 steals in his three games in the starting lineup. So long as Colimerio continues to start, he is still a bargain at this price.
Also consider: Great Osobor, Utah State ($9.1K); Joel Scott, Colorado State ($7.3K); Isaac Johnson, Utah State ($5.1K); Rashaan Mbemba, Colorado State ($4K)
