CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (4/1/25)

Central Florida Knights - UCF, NCAA College Team Logo Stock

Today's DraftKings CBB DFS lineup picks for 4/1/25. Mike M's top daily fantasy college basketball sleepers to build winning NCAA DFS lineups on DraftKings.

If you were wondering why the NIT does not have many high-major teams, I present to you the inaugural College Basketball Crown event from Vegas. Eight of the biggest NCAA Tournament snubs sacrificed another home game or two for a trip to Vegas and a chance at a massive NIL pool. I'm interested to see how this plays out. We have some good competition for this event! Hey...it's more DFS. We're not going to say no to that!

Today we get a little bonus from the NIT Semifinals, so we have six games tonight! There are the high-majors in the Crown Invitational and mid-majors in the NIT. This slate has something for everyone!

This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings for 4/1/25, starting at 3 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

Darius Johnson, Central Florida ($9.4K)

Johnson closed the season on a heater, scoring at least 20 actual points in each of his last six games. He topped 30 DraftKings points in all of them and even topped 50 a couple of times. With Keyshawn Hall out, expect a heavy workload from Johnson. He did that against Big 12 (16) competition! Oregon State can't stack up.

Justin Hohn, UC Irvine ($7.2K)

Hohn went cold against UAB, but still managed 22 DraftKings points thanks to his assists and work on the boards. This is a better matchup with North Texas, but I also feel secure with the floor considering his peripherals.

Liutauras Lelevicius, Oregon State ($4.9K)

Lelevicius started the last two games for the Beavers and put up 54.75 DraftKings points in 58 minutes. That's a great return in this price range. The Beavers should stick with Lelevicius in the Crown since he has been the only bright spot for the Beavers in March.

Also consider: Rowan Brumbaugh, Tulane ($9.2K); Honor Huff, Chattanooga ($8.3K); Day Day Thomas, Cincinnati ($7K); Asher Woods, Tulane ($6.6K); Josh Reed, Cincinnati ($5.1K); RJ Smith, Colorado ($4.5K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks

Bent Leuchten, UC Irvine ($8.4K)

The "German Giant" is fourth in the NCAA in double-doubles this season. He's looking to close his collegiate career with an NIT title. His size has been a problem for all opponents so far and North Texas will be no different. UAB's Yaxel Lendeborg couldn't even handle him. UNT is in for a world of trouble.

Moustapha Thiam, Central Florida ($7.4K)

UCF is ravaged by transfers, but the super freshman is sticking around. Thiam has at least 24 DraftKings points in the last 17 games of the season. He survived a rough start to his freshman year and finished strong. He's not done yet!

Gregg Glenn III, Tulane ($6.7K)

Glenn scored in double figures in each of the last seven games of the season, topping 25 DraftKings points in all of them. He's an efficient shooter who gets to the line and is a deceptively good passer. Glenn has a high floor as long as he can stay out of foul trouble.

Also consider: Eric Dixon, Villanova ($8.8K); Miles Rubin, Loyola-Chicago ($7.3K); Rashaun Agee, USC ($6.8K); Jalen DeLoach, Loyola-Chicago ($5K); Collin Mulholland, Chattanooga ($4.7K)
