Today's DraftKings CBB DFS lineup picks for 3/29/25. Mike M's top daily fantasy college basketball sleepers to build winning NCAA DFS lineups on DraftKings.
We are already down to the Elite Eight, the four regional finals that will produce our Final Four. There haven't been many surprises so far and even fewer buzzer-beaters, but we have had some fun basketball, nonetheless.
Florida, Duke, Alabama, and Texas Tech have a seed total of seven. The only 2-seed that didn't make it this far is St. John's. Alabama's regional semifinal win was so dominant that the Tide would have rolled even without a made two-point basket.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings for 3/29/25, starting at 6:09 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.
Today's DraftKings Guards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Elijah Hawkins, Texas Tech ($8K)

Hawkins could hit hardly anything the whole game but came up big when Tech needed him. Despite the poor shooting night, Hawkins still made an impact with five assists, five rebounds, and a pair of steals. We are to the point of the tournament where there are elite matchups across the board. Give me the guy with strong peripherals every time!
Will Richard, Florida ($6.2K)
The Gators aren't built like normal teams. They don't have a "true" point guard. Richard and Alijah Martin can both be found with the ball at critical times. In this case, I'll side with the guy running hot. Richard has at least 22 DraftKings points in every game since the end of the regular season. Florida hasn't lost since then.
Aden Holloway, Alabama ($4.4K)
The team couldn't hardly miss against BYU. We saw Alabama at its best in the regional semifinals. Now the Tide has to tangle with the most efficient team in the country. Holloway is a bench player, but he doesn't take bad shots and often creates for teammates.
Duke is efficient across the board. Holloway is the most efficient Alabama player. In a battle for efficiency, we could see a player like Holloway become even more important.
Also consider: Mark Sears, Alabama ($8.5K); Alijah Martin, Florida ($6.6K); Tyrese Proctor, Duke ($5.6K); Sion James, Duke ($4.9K); Chris Youngblood, Alabama ($4.2K)

Arizona is a marginally slower version of Alabama, and Flagg put up one of the better games of his college career. I also love JT Toppin in this situation, but it's hard to cram both into our lineups. If you have to choose between the two, Flagg has the potential for a ceiling game against a team like Alabama.
Darrion Williams, Texas Tech ($8K)
It was a remarkable performance by the entire Texas Tech team to come back against Arkansas. Despite an inefficient shooting night, Williams carried the Red Raiders for much of the game. If you can't afford the combo of Flagg and Toppin, Williams is a little over $2k cheaper and could have similar output.
Clifford Omoruyi, Alabama ($5.5K)
The Rutgers transfer could be the most important piece on the court for Alabama tonight. The veteran has come up big for the Tide come tournament time with 90.25 DraftKings points in three games. He's the only thing stopping Khaman Maluach from taking over this game.
Also consider: JT Toppin, Texas Tech ($10.1K); Alex Condon, Florida ($7K); Khaman Maluach, Duke ($5.8K); Grant Nelson, Alabama ($4.8K); Patrick Ngongba II, Duke ($3.4K)
