Today's DraftKings CBB DFS lineup picks for 3/11/24. Mike's top daily fantasy college basketball sleepers to build winning NCAA DFS lineups on DraftKings.
Longwood, Morehead State, Stetson, and Drake punched their tickets over the weekend. Hey, I'm just happy to have one of the best nicknames in the tournament for the first time. Welcome to the Stetson Hatters. It's going to be a fun ride. The madness has started already. Drake took the auto-bid from Indiana State, meaning the Sycamores need to get in with an at-large bid. They should, but that takes a bid from a Big East team in Villanova or St. John's. That's the bad part about Arch Madness. They're a week early. Nova and St. John's get a chance to pick up another win to get in.
Today we have the semifinals of the Horizon League and West Coast Conference tournaments for our DraftKings slate. I'm not sure why they left off the title games for the Sun Belt and Southern Conferences, but what do I know? We'll take what we can get. We have Cleveland State and Oakland facing off in Indianapolis and Wisconsin-Milwaukee taking on Northern Kentucky in the Indy nightcap. Santa Clara gets another crack at St. Mary's and the Dons face Gonzaga for the two games in Vegas.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 3/11/24, starting at 7 p.m. EDT. 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
BJ Freeman, Wisconsin-Milwaukee ($8.8K)
Freeman has three straight games over 50 DraftKings points and has six such games in the last eight. The Norse "held" him to 80 DraftKings points in two games this year. The ceiling is a little lower here, but his floor is in the high 30s. No one else on the slate can claim that. Freeman is a good building block in any format tonight.
BJ Freeman had a really good game in the first round of the Horizon Tournament. He finished with
30 Points
10 Rebounds
5 Assists

Nolan Hickman, Gonzaga ($6.3K)
Hickman went cold against St. Mary's in the final game of the regular season last weekend, but he put up 33.25 DraftKings points on the Dons in the game before that. He's had over a week to work on his shot. The Bulldogs are back in the tournament according to most experts since they closed the season with wins over St. Mary's and San Francisco. A win or three in the WCC tournament might get them out of facing a one-seed in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Expect Hickman and the Bulldogs to bring their A-game to Paradise...Nevada.
Carlos Marshall Jr., Santa Clara ($5.3K)
It's win-or-go-home time for the Broncos. The bad news is that they get St. Mary's in the semis of the WCC Tournament. They got blown out by the Gaels at home in January and played them within five points on the road at the beginning of February. The NIT is the only place the Broncos could end up, but they need at least this win to do so.
Marshall put up 32 DraftKings points in the close game against the Gaels and he has at least 20 DraftKings points in four of the last five games. His efficient shooting and good peripherals make him a lower-risk value play, even against a team like St. Mary's.
Also consider: Marques Warrick, Northern Kentucky ($8.2K); Trey Robinson, Northern Kentucky ($7.8K); Augustas Marciulionis, St. Mary's ($7.3K); Marcus Williams, San Francisco ($7.1K); Drew Lowder, Cleveland State ($6.4K); Blake Lampman, Oakland ($5.9K); Rocket Watts, Oakland ($4.5K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Graham Ike, Gonzaga ($8.1K)
If you want to know why Gonzaga went from a team struggling to stay in the tournament field around the end of January into a shoo-in, look no further than the play of Ike. He has at least 32 DraftKings points in seven straight games and over 36 DraftKings points in six straight. He lit up the Dons in both games this season. San Francisco can't handle Ike. The ceiling isn't as high as Freeman's, but Ike's floor is much higher.
Tristan Enaruna, Cleveland State ($7.4K)
You'll have to keep an eye on the status of Enaruna. He missed his first game of the season in the opening round against Youngstown State because of...who knows? They sure won't tell us common folk. The NCAA isn't forced to disclose injuries, so I fully expect this to drag up until tip-off. If Enaruna is in, he's one of my favorite plays. He hasn't been under 28 DraftKings points since January 4 and had a run of 10 straight games over 35 before the back-to-back games against IUPUI to start March.
Keeyan Itejere, Northern Kentucky ($3.6K)
Itejere, the Marquette transfer, missed about two weeks with an ankle injury suffered against Cleveland State. He made his return to action in the first round against Wright State, putting up seven DraftKings points in 16 minutes. At full strength, Itejere was playing minutes in the upper 20s. If he can get back to that in this price range, he can make a huge impact. There is a healthy amount of risk involved though.
Also consider: Jonathan Mogbo, San Francisco ($8.3K); Trey Townsend, Oakland ($8K); Faizon Fields, Wisconsin-Milwaukee ($6.9K); Anton Watson, Gonzaga ($6.5K); LJ Wells, Northern Kentucky ($6.2K); Chris Conway, Oakland ($5.9K); Christoph Tilly, Santa Clara ($5.2K)
