Today's Night DraftKings CBB DFS lineup picks for 11/15/24. Mike M's top daily fantasy college basketball sleepers to build winning NCAA DFS lineups on DraftKings.
We are at a special time during college basketball season. We are not locked into two busy mid-week days with nothing on Thursday and Friday yet. The main slate had a lot of marquee matchups, but the night slate is no slouch, either!
We start in an unusual location. Moline, Illinois is hosting the Washington State-Iowa tilt. Next up is Ohio State and A&M from College Station. We end the night in Madison with Arizona in town. How's that for a nightcap?
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 11/15/24, starting at 8:30 p.m. EST. 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
Bruce Thornton, Ohio State ($9K)
Bruce Thornton splits through 2 games this season:
16.0 PPG / 4.0 APG / 5.0 RPG
75.0 FG% / 66.7 3PT% / 80.0 FT%
Matchup with Wade Taylor IV on Friday night is gonna be a fun one ? pic.twitter.com/GnL5DtwziH

Thornton is picking up where he left off last season. Those averages shape out to be even better than his 2023-24 campaign. Thornton has a little more talent around him in Columbus this year. Can the Buckeyes compete in a rough-and-tumble Big Ten (18)? If they do, Thornton will be the reason.
Zhuric Phelps, Texas A&M ($6.8K)
Wade Taylor IV had a good game against Lamar on Monday, but Phelps still put up 15 points, four rebounds, and three assists. Phelps continues to produce at a high level in the middle price range. I see better pay-up spots than Taylor. Phelps is still the best bang for your buck among A&M guards.
John Tonje, Wisconsin ($5.4K)
Tonje isn't the first guy you think of when you think of Wisconsin basketball, but he is leading the team with 53 points so far this year and is second to only Nolan Winter in rebounds (16). Add in the eight assists and three steals, and we have a great bargain at this price.
Also consider: Jaden Bradley, Arizona ($6.7K); Nate Calmese, Washington State ($6.5K); Micah Parrish, Ohio State ($4.9K); Anthony Dell'Orso, Arizona ($4.3K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Payton Sandfort, Iowa ($9.2K)
There's enough value tonight that we can use the Iowa star. Sandfort has 49 points, 23 rebounds, 16 assists, three blocks, and two steals in the first three games of the season while playing around 28 minutes per game. He will play more than that in competitive games. The ceiling is higher for Sandfort than anyone else tonight.
Tobe Awaka, Arizona ($6.4K)
TOP CATS OF THE WEEK ?
? Tobe Awaka, @ArizonaMBB
· Recorded career-highs of 18 points and 15 rebounds en route to Arizona Basketball's dominant performance vs. Old Dominion?♀️ Kelly Wetteland, @aztriathlon
· Led Arizona Triathlon to a National Championship, with a… pic.twitter.com/bi0BoiRQfG— Arizona Athletics (@AZATHLETICS) November 12, 2024
Awaka showed flashes of brilliance at Tennessee, but the Vols are too guard-oriented for a big man to flourish on that team. Awaka has 22 points, 24 rebounds, two steals, two blocks, and an assist in his first two games in Tucson. He has only played 41 minutes! If this game stays close (as it should), Awaka could have an even bigger game.
Henry Coleman III, Texas A&M ($4.8K)
Coleman was a strong bench player for the Aggies last year and has been even better in the early going this year. Coleman has 33 points, 21 rebounds, two assists, and two steals in just 32 minutes of court time. If his playing time increases, look out!
Devin Royal, Ohio State ($4.2K)
Royal has 18 points, nine rebounds, three steals, and two assists in just 44 minutes this season. The Buckeyes are running a solid eight deep right now, but Royal's play should earn him more minutes.
Also consider: Owen Freeman, Iowa ($7.1K); LeJuan Watts, Washington State ($7K); Andersson Garcia, Texas A&M ($5.9K); Dane Erikstrup, Washington State ($5.3K), Nolan Winter, Wisconsin ($4.1K)
