Today's DraftKings CBB DFS lineup picks for 1/6/25. Mike M's top daily fantasy college basketball sleepers to build winning NCAA DFS lineups on DraftKings.
We have a nice Big Monday slate tonight with a couple of Big Ten (18) games and a Big 12 (16) offering to top it off. It may only be three games, but it's three good ones!
We start in Piscataway with Wisconsin in town. Ohio State heads to the Barn to take on Minnesota. We close this out with TCU heading down I-45 to Houston to take on the Cougars.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 1/6/25, starting at 7 p.m. EST. 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.

Today's DraftKings Guards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Dylan Harper, Rutgers ($9.7K)
Dylan Harper is moving different as a freshman. He went for a triple-double in Rutgers’ win over Columbia tonight ?

Harper missed the Indiana game on Thursday because of an illness. If he plays tonight, use him. If not, Ace Bailey nuked the Hoosiers, so use him instead. I wouldn't run them together if both play. With Harper on the court, Bailey won't do enough with his price in five figures.
John Blackwell, Wisconsin ($7.8K)
I'm convinced that Rutgers would be the worst Power-6 (yes, I count the Mountain West as a power conference in basketball) team without Harper or Bailey. They are two great players on a team full of below-average ones. I don't think the team is well-coached, which doesn't help.
That's to say that I wouldn't be shocked if Blackwell had another career day here. He kicked off 2025 in style with a career-high 32 points against Iowa. With how Rutgers plays defense, don't be shocked if he scores at least 20 again.
Milos Uzan, Houston ($6.7K)
I liked Uzan on Oklahoma's team last year, but it's clear that Kelvin Sampson is getting something out of him that Oklahoma couldn't. Uzan has thrived as the point guard of this offense. He has at least 24 DraftKings points in four straight games. The last team to hold him under that mark in a full game was San Diego State on November 30.
Ques Glover, Ohio State ($4.3K)
Glover missed five weeks with an ankle injury but has played better than before the injury since he came back on December 21. In those three games, Glover has 33 points, 10 rebounds, seven assists, and a steal in 65 minutes. The minutes are trending upward and I'm riding the wave up.
Also consider: Bruce Thornton, Ohio State ($8.3K); Noah Reynolds, TCU ($6.9K); Lu'Cye Patterson, Minnesota ($6.4K); Jeremiah Williams, Rutgers ($5.9K); Femi Odukale, Minnesota ($5.6K); Kamari McGee, Wisconsin ($4.8K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Dawson Garcia, Minnesota ($8.5K)
Dawson Garcia tonight vs Purdue

Did anyone see what Purdue did to Northwestern yesterday? Good. Garcia's good numbers against Purdue prove that he is good enough to notch those numbers against anyone. Garcia has at least 32 DraftKings points in every game since the end of November after a slow start. He can be trusted against Ohio State, just don't expect miracles.
Nolan Winter, Wisconsin ($7.2K)
What's good for the Blackwell is good for the Winter. Winter is a very efficient scorer and might be Wisconsin's best rebounder. Those are the two categories that should go off against a Rutgers team that is not good defensively and misses a lot of shots on offense.
Aaron Bradshaw, Ohio State ($5.2K)
Bradshaw is a high-energy guy off the bench for Ohio State. He's a good shooter and good defender, but don't expect much else. He'll be tasked with bugging Garcia with a fresh body every 6-8 minutes for a few minutes. He can be successful in that role.
Also consider: Devin Royal, Ohio State ($8K); Ernest Udeh Jr., TCU ($7.6K); Steven Crowl, Wisconsin ($6.3K); Sean Stewart, Ohio State ($4.9K); Parker Fox, Minnesota ($4.4K)
