DraftKings CBB DFS Guards
Tylor Perry, Kansas State ($8,600)
The Wildcats hit the portal for an experienced guard to replace do-everything Markquis Nowell. They went to Denton, Texas to bring Perry up to the Little Apple. It was a great decision. Perry has at least 34 DraftKings points in all four games, including a monster 48-point outburst in the loss to USC in the opener. Perry has at least 18 real points in all four games and has at least 10 counting stats in three of the four games. He's about as safe as they get.
Wooga Poplar, Miami ($7,100)
Whenever a guard notches a double-double, I pay attention. Poplar put up 13 points and 11 rebounds against Georgia on Friday despite an off night from the floor. This Miami team is loaded with talent, so I'm not chasing the pure scorers. That's why I'm going after Poplar, who will still have a strong game even if he's not racking up the points.
Sahvir Wheeler, Washington ($6,400)
This is going to be a tough one against the Aztecs, but Wheeler has been outstanding against both Nevada and Xavier -- two teams that have tournament aspirations in a few months. He is scoring more than he did at Kentucky, but the assists and rebounds are still there. It's the best of all worlds for Wheeler and the Huskies right now.
Desmond Claude, Xavier ($5,600)
Claude was a good, albeit inconsistent, rotation player for the Musketeers last year as a freshman. This year, he has entered the starting five and become a driving force for Xavier. Claude has played at least 30 minutes in every game and scored in double figures. The strong assist and rebound totals are encouraging and give him nice value in DFS circles. He's playing above his price point right now.
Also consider: Brooks Barnhizer, Northwestern ($8,400); Devin Carter, Providence ($8,000); Daniss Jenkins, St. John's ($7,300); Rollie Worster, Utah ($6,900); Zek Montgomery, Rhode Island ($6,400); Bensley Joseph, Miami (FL) ($6,200); Hunter Sallis, Wake Forest ($5,900); Ticket Gaines, Providence ($5,200); Blue Cain, Georgia ($4,500)

DraftKings CBB DFS Forwards
PJ Hall, Clemson ($9,200)
Hall had his moments last year, but the senior big man is dominating in the early going. He hasn't recorded a double-double yet, but he has been close in every game so far. We'll take the 20-point scoring. The blocks and rebounds aren't going anywhere. If Hall can continue scoring while putting up the peripheral numbers that he did last year, it could be a huge season for him and the team as a whole.
Jaedon LeDee, San Diego State ($8,200)
LeDee is approaching superstar status in the early going. He has 171.5 DraftKings points over the first four games of the season. He has at least 20 points in every outing and has notched a pair of double-doubles already. The Aztecs were a well-rounded team last year but sometimes had trouble scoring. That isn't the case this year. The Aztecs have scored 315 points in four games so far. LeDee is a big reason why. He has 100 of those points.
Dillon Mitchell, Texas ($6,700)
Mitchell was one of the best sixth men anywhere in college last year. He has thrived for Texas with Dylan Disu out in the early going. Mitchell has 20 rebounds in three games already with 10 assists, five blocks, four steals, and 28 points. He doesn't need to score to provide great DFS value, but Mitchell is efficient when he does shoot. He's not going to put up a monster double-double, but he can get us one on the cheap.
Brandon Huntley-Hatfield, Louisville ($4,900)
Huntley-Hatfield has been a monster on the glass for the Cardinals in the early going. He has snagged 31 rebounds in just 75 minutes through the first three games. His offense leaves something to be desired, but those rebounds can sure add up in a hurry. The absence of Disu for Texas means Huntley-Hatfield won't have to contest with Texas's best rebounder. For the price, he's worth a shot.
Also consider: Keion Brooks, Washington ($9,600); Kel'el Ware, Indiana ($9,100); Jimmy Bell, Mississippi State ($7,100); Malik Reneau, Indiana ($6,700); Tyson Degenhart, Boise State ($6,300); Will Baker, LSU ($5,500); Kadin Shedrick, Texas ($4,700)
