Today's DraftKings CBB DFS lineup picks for 3/19/25. Mike M's top daily fantasy college basketball sleepers to build winning NCAA DFS lineups on DraftKings.
It's finally NCAA Tournament time ... kind of. We have some great NIT games, which are mostly populated by mid-majors this year. That's the way it should be. We also have the last two of the First Four games from Dayton.
We'll have some teams we aren't used to seeing in these DraftKings tournaments. Don't be afraid to use them, especially against evenly matched teams! That can be the difference between minimum cash and a takedown!
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings for 3/19/25, starting at 6:40 p.m. EDT. I’ll give 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.

I know that's old news, but I wanted to highlight how special of a player Brown is. Not many players did that against Texas Tech this year. Brown has only been under 28 DraftKings points once this calendar year. UAB's strength is in the middle. It doesn't have a guard who can guard Brown.
Taye Fields, North Alabama ($7.2K)
I know that Bradley is a tough defensive team that limits possessions, but Fields at this price is still too cheap. Fields has at least 27 DraftKings points in all but one game over the last month. He only scored six points against Lipscomb but still cobbled together 33 DK points because of his hustle. That's the kind of guy I want in DFS.
Tramon Mark, Texas ($6.3K)
We'll forgive his clunker against Tennessee. Most guards struggle against the Vols. Before that loss, Mark was the driving force behind Texas's entry into the NCAA Tournament. He had 119.25 DK points in the first four games of March before the Tennessee loss.
Kymany Houinsou, Loyola-Chicago ($5K)
The Washington State transfer was a force down the stretch for the Ramblers. Houinsou has 110 DraftKings points over the last four games despite coming off the bench. His minutes appear stable in the mid-20s, so we can expect another solid outing from Houinsou.
Also consider: PJay Smith Jr., Furman ($9.4K); Enoch Cheeks, Dayton ($8.3K); Jaron Rillie, Northern Colorado ($7.9K); Justin Hohn, UC Irvine ($6.9K); Elijah Stephens, American ($6.6K); Atin Wright, North Texas ($6.4K); Nick Anderson, Furman ($6.1K); Jordan Pope, Texas ($5.3K); Johnathan Massie, North Texas ($4.8K); Chendall Weaver, Texas ($4.4K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Yaxel Lendeborg, UAB ($9.9K)
YAXEL LENDEBORG, THE ONLY D1 PLAYER THIS CENTURY WITH AT LEAST 30 PTS, 20REB, 4STL & 4BLK IN A GAME… AND HE DID IN THE CONF. QUARTERFINALS! ??
One of the greatest performances in CBB history. ? pic.twitter.com/4ztaDkVLGe
— GREENLIGHT MEDIA (@greenlightbball) March 15, 2025
It's a travesty that Lendeborg isn't showing off in the NCAA Tournament again this year. Don't blame him. Lendeborg had 193.5 DraftKings points in three games in the American Conference Tournament. Just play him!
Devin Tillis, UC Irvine ($7.4K)
Tillis put up 138 DraftKings points in the last four games of the season trying to propel the Anteaters to the promised land. The NIT is a decent consolation prize. Irvine is one of the favorites in the NIT and Tillis is the main reason why. His scoring has been elite in the last fortnight.
Matas Vokietaitis, Florida Atlantic ($6.6K)
Vokietaitis averaged 31.7 DraftKings points per game in March. His season was marred by inconsistency before that, but it was a promising ending for an Owls team that is trying to rebuild after losing Dusty May to Michigan.
Jalen DeLoach, Loyola-Chicago ($4.2K)
DeLoach usually only plays around a dozen minutes per game, but he's very active when he's in there. DeLoach has at least nine DraftKings points in every game since Valentine's Day. He's a relatively safe value play.
Also consider: Matt Cross, SMU ($8.4K); Zach Freemantle, Xavier ($8K); Jalen Haynes, George Mason ($7.3K); Sadaidriene Hall, San Jose State ($5.9K); Anthony Finkley, St. Joseph's ($5.7K); Ben Schwieger, Northern Iowa ($5.2K); Jayson Kent, Texas ($3.9K)
