These holiday tournaments sure are fun, aren't they? DraftKings has chopped up the slates into three of them today and all of them are loaded with talent. We can gorge on DFS the day before we gorge on turkey or whatever your family uses to give thanks.
The Battle 4 Atlantis begins the slate with Louisville facing Indiana. We have the second game from Atlantis featuring West Virginia and Gonzaga. We'll close this state with the fifth-place matchup from Maui featuring Colorado and Iowa State.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 11/27/24, starting at noon 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.

Small was a good player at Oklahoma State last year, but the game above against Iona might have been his all-around best game as a college player. He's going to have a hard time duplicating those defensive numbers against a team like Gonzaga, but I feel that's baked into the price. Small should be plenty productive for this price range.
Myles Rice, Indiana ($6.8K)
Rice has been huge for the Hoosiers in the two competitive games that Indiana has played. In those games, Rice has 43 points, nine rebounds, nine assists, and two steals. He was an elite scorer with Washington State last year and that hasn't changed. Use Rice with confidence.
Reyne Smith, Louisville ($5.4K)
Smith has been a consistent force off the bench for Louisville. He has at least three made three-pointers in every game this year and it is solid on the boards as well. He has played at least 23 minutes in every game, so he's not the average bench player. Smith sees plenty of opportunities each game.
Also consider: Ryan Nembhard, Gonzaga ($9K); Keshon Gilbert, Iowa State ($7.1K); Curtis Jones, Iowa State ($6.9K); Chucky Hepburn, Louisville ($6.1K); Julian Hammond III, Colorado ($5.2K); Jonathan Powell, West Virginia ($3.7K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Oumar Ballo, Indiana ($7.8K)
Indiana went 14-of-14 from the line over the final 5:18 of the game to seal the victory against South Carolina. That included four makes from Oumar Ballo, a career 56.5 percent free-throw shooter. #iubb

Free throws and passing were Ballo's weak spots last season. Ballo still only has six assists in four games, but he is a solid 10-for-17 from the stripe this year. We're seeing improvement from Ballo, but we would like to see more points. The 11 blocks in four games are a nice touch though.
Elijah Malone, Colorado ($6.1K)
Malone has scored in double figures in all but one of the five games so far. He's an efficient scorer who doesn't need a high number of shots to get his points. He's a solid rebounder and underrated shot-blocker. That gives him a good floor and the efficient scoring gives him a higher ceiling.
Dishon Jackson, Iowa State ($5.5K)
Jackson has been a consistent presence on the interior for the Cyclones. He is strong on boards and a capable scorer. The ceiling isn't high, but Jackson has at least 20 DraftKings points in every game.
Also consider: Tucker DeVries, West Virginia ($8.5K); Malik Reneau, Indiana ($7.6K); Graham Ike, Gonzaga ($7.1K); James Scott, Louisville ($6.3K); Andrej Jakimovski, Colorado ($5.9K); Amani Hansberry, West Virginia ($5.1K); Eduardo Andre, West Virginia ($4.2K)
