CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (12/9/24)

Today's DraftKings CBB DFS lineup picks for 12/9/24. Mike M's top daily fantasy college basketball sleepers to build winning NCAA DFS lineups on DraftKings.

It's a light night in the college game. We only have two games on tap, but one is an important Big Ten (18) game, and the other features a highly ranked team. It's not all bad!

We start in Bloomington with the Gophers facing Indiana. We end in Waco with Abilene Christian making its way down to take on Baylor.

This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 12/9/24, starting at 6:30 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

Robert O. Wright III, Baylor ($6.8K)

VJ Edgecombe is expected to be out again, which should mean another strong game from Wright. Wright has 40 points, eight assists, three rebounds, and two steals over the last two games filling in for Edgecombe. Not to mention that Baylor has the best matchup on the whole slate.

Jayden Nunn, Baylor ($5.8K)

Forget Nunn's struggles against Tennessee and Connecticut. Those are two of the top defensive teams in the country. Nunn should pick up a lot of the slack left by Edgecombe. He's an elite scorer when he gets open looks. Nunn should get plenty of those tonight.

Mike Mitchell Jr., Minnesota ($4.9K)

There is still no news about Tyler Cochran, so Mitchell will get another start. He has 30 points, 14 assists, four rebounds, four steals, and two blocks over 78 minutes in his first three games. The ankle seems to be fine. Mitchell exploded for 17 points against Michigan State last week. He could be in for another good game here.

Also consider: Quion Williams, Abilene Christian ($8K); Myles Rice, Indiana ($6.4K); Langston Love, Baylor ($4.3K)

Arizona didn't use Ballo much on the offensive end. Indiana is beginning to find out what they have with him. Every trip to the foul line is an adventure for Ballo, but that's the only hole in his game. He excels at everything else. Ballo has by far the highest ceiling on the slate.

Norchad Omier, Baylor ($8.8K)

Ballo still isn't all that consistent since he shares a frontcourt. Omier is free to dominate all by himself. He is averaging 15.6 points and 10 rebounds per game. Omier is the cash game play, but you can fit Omier and Ballo in a GPP lineup if you're willing to take a couple of value risks.

Josh Ojianwuna, Baylor ($4.4K)

If this game turns into a blowout, we could see a lot of minutes from Ojianwuna as Baylor takes it easy with Omier. Ojianwuna had a nice game against Connecticut on the glass. That's where most of his value lies, and he should tower over the ACU front.

Also consider: Dawson Garcia, Minnesota ($8.4K); Leonardo Bettiol, Abilene Christian ($7.4K); Luke Goode, Indiana ($4.2K)
