Happy VD for those of you that celebrate in one way or another. The NCAA is celebrating with a dozen games instead of a dozen roses and many of them are worth ditching your date for. We open up with Notre Dame in Cameron Indoor to take on Duke. Missouri heads to Auburn to take on Tigers with different stripes. Illinois heads over to Pennsylvania to take on Penn State. Providence is in the Birdcage to take on Creighton. We end the early tips with NC State in the Loud House to take on the Orange.
An hour later, Nebraska heads to Piscataway to take on Rutgers. Villanova brings in Butler for someone to beat on. A half-hour later, we have LSU heading to Athens to take on the Bulldogs. We end this with four 9 pm games starting with Michigan heading to Madison to take on the Badgers. St John's is in Chicago to take on DePaul. K-State heads to Norman to beat on the reeling Sooners. We end with the Jayhawks in Gallagher-Iba to take on the Pokes. This is going to be a fun one!
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 2/14/23, starting at 7 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
Jalen Pickett, Penn State ($9,800)
Pickett has at least 26 DraftKings points in every single game this season. Think about that for a minute: That means no lost games to foul trouble. No leaving early due to injury. That means even when his shot isn't falling that Pickett is doing enough everywhere else on the court to still hit value. He racked up 42.75 DraftKings points in the first meeting with the Illini, playing the entire game. He's the guy you want to start with in cash games and has good upside for GPP usage as well.
Devin Carter, Providence ($8,000)
Carter put up 30.75 DraftKings points in the first meeting with Creighton and has been over 28 DraftKings points in all but the UConn game since Christmas. This Providence team is running through Carter right now. That helps us a lot in DFS circles. The best part is that the Friars don't rely on Carter to score. He provides most of his value through peripheral numbers. Starting with Carter and Pickett is a very high floor.
Keisei Tominaga, Nebraska ($5,900)
Tominaga is one of the last scholarship players standing for Nebraska. With the team depleted, he is taking a high number of shots and has scored at least 22 points in three straight games. He still doesn't do much aside from score, but when Tominaga is taking around 15 shots per game and shooting nearly 50%, that's more than enough to hit value at this price.
Otega Oweh, Oklahoma ($4,500)
The Sooners have crashed and burned since decimating Alabama, but don't blame Oweh. He has wiggled his way into the starting lineup over the last couple of games and has put up 77.5 DraftKings points over the last four games. He's a good rebounder and a decent shooter. He is constantly in foul trouble, but at this low of a price, I don't view that as much of a risk. Oweh has a good floor with an equally good upside. I'll take it.
Also consider: Markquis Nowell, Kansas State ($9,400); Bryce Hopkins, Providence ($8,900); Wendell Green, Auburn ($7,800); Ryan Nembhard, Creighton ($7,000); Casey Morsell, North Carolina State ($6,700); Dylan Addae-Wusu, St. John's ($6,200); Adam Miller, LSU ($5,800); Justin Hill, Georgia ($5,400); Deandre Gholston, Missouri ($4,600); Jamarques Lawrence, Nebraska ($4,200)

DraftKings CBB DFS Forwards
Jesse Edwards, Syracuse ($9,500)
Edwards has dominated in the month of February so far. He has roughly doubled his shot total, which has resulted in huge scoring totals. He's still a beast on the glass and one of the premier shot blockers in the ACC. If Edwards is going to keep getting this kind of volume, his upside is better than anyone else on the slate.
Joel Soriano, St. John's ($8,700)
Soriano isn't a heavy scorer, but he's one of the better rebounders in the college game. That gives him a great floor. He has managed to score in double figures in all but two games in the last three months. That's a nice double-double bonus. It doesn't hurt that Soriano ravaged the Blue Demons on the interior in the first meeting en route to 40 DraftKings points in 31 minutes.
Kalib Boone, Oklahoma State ($6,700)
Boone has gotten hot at the right time for the Pokes. His all-around production has given the team a jolt even with Avery Anderson out. That has resulted in more scoring chances for Boone, who has capitalized with very efficient shooting. Look, this is a tough matchup against Kansas. That makes Boone a GPP play only. However, he does have more upside than usual with his recent performances. Boone has at least 25 DraftKings points in seven straight games.
Dariq Whitehead, Duke ($4,400)
Whitehead made his return to the court against the Hoos over the weekend and responded with 17.5 DraftKings points in 25 minutes. Dereck Lively, we hardly knew ya. Whitehead was given his spot back in the rotation despite a couple of strong performances from Lively, but Duke made it clear that they value what Whitehead has to offer. He's an efficient shooter and a good rebounder. He has nice upside at this price so long as he's going to play 25 minutes per game.
Also consider: Jalen Wilson, Kansas ($9,700); Johni Broome, Auburn ($9,200); Ryan Kalkbrenner, Creighton ($8,300); Seth Lundy, Penn State ($7,800); Coleman Hawkins, Illinois ($7,500); Jaylin Williams, Auburn ($6,900); Jalen Hill, Oklahoma ($6,000); Aundre Hyatt, Rutgers ($5,700); Ven-Allen Lubin, Notre Dame ($4,600)
