DraftKings CBB DFS Lineup Picks For 3/26/23 - Daily Fantasy College Basketball Advice

We have just six teams left with a shot at the National Championship. Texas and Miami have been here before. San Diego State and Creighton are the outcasts. None of the one or two seeds made it to the Regional Finals, so we're going to have some fun here!

This is the first NCAA Tournament EVER with no number 1 seeds in the Elite Eight. Parity is alive and well in college basketball! The Jays and Aztecs tip off early from Louisville. We end the day in Kansas City with Texas and Miami. This is going to be fun!

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on March 26, 2023, starting at 2:20 pm 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

Isaiah Wong, Miami ($7,300)

When you get to this stage of the tournament, every matchup is tough. That is especially true today with a couple of defensive stalwarts on the slate in Texas and San Diego State. I usually go after guys who get points no matter the matchup, but I'll switch it up a little with Wong here. He has scored 47 actual points in the last two tournament games. I'll ride the hot hand and the good rebounding totals instead of paying up at guard. This should be a slate dominated by bigs.

Ryan Nembhard, Creighton ($7,100)

I like to target players with good peripheral stats in matchups like this. Alexander is the bigger scorer for the Jays, but Nembhard is the guy that stacks up the assists and rebounds. The scoring is just a bonus. He had a strong game against a similarly physical team in Baylor when the Bears took away the interior. SDSU might try to do the same here, which would mean Creighton would need to rely on the guards more.

Darrion Trammell, San Diego State ($5,700)

If you're looking for a reason why the Aztecs are still dancing, Trammell is a very good one. The whole team struggled from the floor against Charleston and some have continued to struggle. Trammell, a guy who averaged 9.8 points per game during the regular season, has scored 34 points over the last two games. If he's not scoring, he won't do much for our DFS lineups though, so I view this as a GPP-only play. Lamont Butler is a little safer due to peripherals.

Also consider: Jordan Miller, Miami ($7,600); Marcus Carr, Texas ($7,500); Sir'Jabari Rice, Texas ($6.700); Micah Parrish, San Diego State ($5,000)

DraftKings CBB DFS Forwards

Ryan Kalkbrenner, Creighton ($8,100)

Kalkbrenner is the focal point of the Creighton offense, so this price seems very reasonable. The Aztecs will try to bully him out of the game much the same way that Baylor did, but Kalkbrenner still put up 20.75 DraftKings points in that game. I don't see a ceiling game here against the Aztecs, but if it does happen, Kalkbrenner's ceiling is higher than anyone else today. I'll take that chance, especially since the risk is relatively low.

Norchad Omier, Miami ($7,700)

Omier is going to loom large for the Canes if Dylan Disu, who was seen in a walking boot after a foot injury on Friday, can't go in this one. Omier's own tweak in that game appears to be minor enough that he isn't expected to be limited. Omier has 44 rebounds in three tournament games to go with four assists, four steals, and 31 points. You don't have to worry about his numbers as long as his ankle is fine.

Christian Bishop, Texas ($4,500)

Considering Disu was in a walking boot on the bench on Friday after a foot injury in the first half, I would expect him to be severely limited if he's able to play at all. Bishop has one of his best games as a Longhorn on Friday after Disu went down. Texas kept pounding away in the middle against Xavier and Bishop finished one rebound shy of a double-double. If Disu is out, Bishop is the bargain that we need on this slate. If not, we have to play SDSU big roulette.

Also consider: Timmy Allen, Texas ($6,900); Arthur Kaluma, Creighton ($6,500); Jaedon LeDee, San Diego State ($5,400); Keshad Johnson, San Diego State ($4,800)
