RADIO
After a busy Saturday, our Sunday is a little more low-key. It's also a weird Sunday slate because it's in prime time instead of the afternoon. We'll adjust. At least they gave us four solid games to choose from.
We get started in Philly with Villanova hosting Providence. Next up is UAB in Dallas to take on SMU. Nebraska leaves The Vault for Champaign, but they have not played well on the road. We then have a nightcap in Tucson with Stanford in town to face Arizona.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 2/4/24, starting at 6 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
Devin Carter, Providence ($9,300)
Carter had an off night (6-for-18) from the floor against UConn and still hit 35.75 DraftKings points. His floor is the best on the slate and we've seen Carter top 40 DraftKings points in seven of the last 10 games. He's playable in any format tonight. He'll play almost the entire game and the Providence offense runs through him.
Zhuric Phelps, SMU ($7,400)
Phelps struggled with his shot against Tulane, but like Carter, he still found other ways to produce. Phelps really gets after you on both ends of the court. He sees enough shots in the flow of the offense to keep the scoring consistent and the defensive stats keep that floor high. Memphis is the only team that has held him under 20 DraftKings points this season.
C.J. Wilcher, Nebraska ($5,600)
Wisconsin isn't a team that allows a lot of open shots. All of Wilcher's seven three-point attempts against the Badgers were contested and he still made five of them. He has nailed 13 three-point shots in the last three games on just 20 attempts. He might not get an open shot against Illinois either, but he's on a heater right now and Fred Hoiberg is giving him more court time as a result. The only thing giving me a twinge of apprehension is how poor Nebraska has been on the road. Wilcher still hits his shots though. We can count on that.
Ricardo Wright, SMU ($3,900)
Wright has been on fire from the floor for the Ponies over the last couple of games. The struggles of Jalen Smith have resulted in more chances for Wright and he has capitalized with 24 points off the bench in 38 minutes over those two games. We should see more of Wright until he cools off. He's definitely worth a shot in GPP formats at this price.
Also consider: Caleb Love, Arizona ($8,300); Terrence Shannon Jr., Illinois ($7,400); Alejandro Vasquez, UAB ($6,000); Kylan Boswell, Arizona ($5,000); KJ Lewis, Arizona ($4,800); Andrej Stojakovic, Stanford ($4,200)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Maxime Raynaud, Stanford ($8,600)
Raynaud has five double-doubles over the last six games and had nine points and nine rebounds in the other. He's playing at a high level against everyone right now. Raynaud put up 12 points and seven rebounds in the first meeting against Arizona in only 24 minutes. If he can stay out of foul trouble and play his normal 30-32 minutes, Raynaud should see another double-double tonight.
Josh Oduro, Providence ($8,000)
I usually don't do this, but there's plenty of value on the board tonight to afford both Raynaud and Oduro. If you have to choose just one, I'm leaning toward Oduro despite the tougher matchup. He has been unstoppable since Bryce Hopkins went down, scoring at least 16 points in every game without Hopkins. Yes, we can even trust him against Villanova.
Yaxel Lendeborg, UAB ($7,200)
Lendeborg has torn up both North Texas and Memphis in the last two games with 39 points and 26 rebounds. Foul trouble limited him against East Carolina and Charlotte after a big game against Tulane, so the consistency isn't there. However, the fact that Landeborg's best games have come against good opponents bodes well for his chances tonight.
Tyler Burton, Villanova ($5,700)
Burton has played big minutes over the last couple of games trying to grapple with the bigs of Marquette and Butler. Burton will likely be tasked with making Josh Oduro miserable in this one. I doubt he will succeed, but that's not the point. The point is that Burton should see big minutes again and a low price. He has 21 points and 16 rebounds over the last two games.
Also consider: Eric Dixon, Villanova ($7,700); Oumar Ballo, Arizona ($7,600); Samuell Williamson, SMU ($7,000); Tyreek Smith, SMU ($6,300); Keon Ambrose-Hylton, SMU ($5,100); Motiejus Krivas, Arizona ($4,300)
