DraftKings CBB DFS Lineup Picks For 12/3/23 - Daily Fantasy College Basketball Advice

Football had their conference championships yesterday, but we could argue that the college basketball landscape was far more entertaining. Today is the playoff selection show where ESPN talks for four hours about how Georgia and Ohio State should still be in. Switch that swill off and let's do some hoops!

We have some big ones on a Sunday, which is great! Auburn heads up to Boone. Let's see a football team do that! We have Clemson heading to Pitt for an ACC tilt. Wichita State heads to Missouri. We have the Dons leaving the Bay Area for the desert to take on the Sun Devils. We have the battle of Nebraska as Creighton takes on the Cornhuskers. Louisville heads to Blacksburg to take on the Hokies. We end this in Columbus with the Gophers in town. By then the selection show should be over.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/3/23, starting at noon Eastern. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions at guard and forward, aiming to highlight one option at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CBB DFS Guards

Trey Alexander, Creighton ($9,000)

I don't usually like to take risks with expensive players, but I don't know that it can be avoided today. Alexander shot just 4-of-26 from the floor against Loyola-Chicago and Colorado State. He looked back to normal against the Cowboys earlier this week. Alexander's upside is better than that of Baylor Scheierman, so if I use a Creighton guard, it will be Alexander. This is a good matchup.

Bruce Thornton, Ohio State ($7,600)

Thornton is the engine that drives the Buckeyes. Minnesota's size is going to be an issue on the interior, which should allow Thornton to thrive on the outside. He has 111.5 DraftKings points over the last three games. The games are getting more competitive and Thornton will play big minutes as long as this one is. It should be. Thornton's floor is 30 tonight.

Marcus Williams, San Francisco ($6,300)

Don't shy away from Williams just because it's a mid-major against a Power-Five team. The Dons blew the doors off of Minnesota last weekend. This is a strong team that can stand toe-to-toe with just about anyone. Williams has at least 28 DraftKings points in four straight games. He has a great chance of making it five in Tempe.

Ty-Laur Johnson, Louisville ($4,800)

Johnson has done a really good job running the second team for Louisville. He doesn't take a lot of shots, but he does assist on a lot of them. Johnson has at least four assists in four straight games. He's a good high-energy guy off the bench at a reasonable price.

Also consider: Ishmael Leggett, Pittsburgh ($8,100); Xavier Bell, Wichita State ($7,200); Tre White, Louisville ($6,700); Joe Girard, Clemson ($6,300); Mike Sharavjamts, San Francisco ($5,800); Jamarques Lawrence, Nebraska ($5,100); Dillon Hunter, Clemson ($3,800)

DraftKings CBB DFS Forwards

PJ Hall, Clemson ($9,800)

Aside from foul trouble against Boise State, Hall has been a monster in the early going. He has cleared 45 DraftKings points three times in the last five games. Once was against a solid UAB team. Once was Alcorn State. Big deal. The other was against Alabama. Now people are paying attention. Surprisingly, Hall hasn't notched a double-double yet. It's coming soon, and Hall will likely be in my lineup when it happens.

Noah Carter, Missouri ($7,400)

Carter has been one of the more consistent Missouri players in the early going. Wichita State has struggled against forwards all season long, especially guys like Carter who shoot and rebound well either on the inside or the outside. Carter has cleared 30 DraftKings points three times in the last five games. He should here against a smaller Wichita State team.

Juwan Gary, Nebraska ($6,400)

Gary missed the first couple of games of the season, but he has hit the ground running. He has at least 27 DraftKings points in all four games and DraftKings has been slow to adjust the price. There is always some risk involved when using a bench option, but Nebraska runs its bench more than a lot of teams do. Gary has played between 21 and 25 minutes in every game. The production should continue as well.

RJ Godfrey, Clemson ($4,600)

Godfrey is dangerous when he can stay on the court. He has committed nine fouls in just 25 minutes over the last two games. He has been a catalyst on offense when on the court though. Godfrey is a good and efficient shooter and is a force on the interior. He and Hall make a nice tandem...when Godfrey can stay on the court.

Also consider: Johni Broome, Auburn ($9,500); Jonathan Mogbo, San Francisco ($8,900); Rienk Mast, Nebraska ($8,300); Jamison Battle, Ohio State ($6,300); Jaylin Williams, Auburn ($6,000); Felix Okpara, Ohio State ($5,700); Pharrel Payne, Minnesota ($5,200); Joshua Ola-Joseph, Minnesota ($4,400)
