DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Guards
Nico Mannion - G, ARIZ vs. OMAH (FanDuel $6,700 DraftKings $7,900)
Nico Mannion has been great recently, consistently topping 30 minutes and 25+ fantasy points. He's been the best player on Arizona in the last two weeks and he's shooting the ball 15 times a game. Arizona is going to demolish Omaha and Mannion will play his part. He may not see 30+ minutes in this game, but 25 will be more than enough in this match-up. Mannion is priced correctly on DK, but way too cheap on FanDuel and you can lock him into all formats. On DraftKings, I prefer Carter Diarra at a similar price.
Ron Harper Jr - G, RUT vs. WIS (FanDuel $6,000 DraftKings $7,000)
Ron Harper Jr. and Geo Baker are both in play here against Wisconsin. We're not working with any exceptionally high totals tonight, so we can target some lower scoring games. Wisconsin isn't playing as slow as they did last year and their defensive efficiency is way down. Rutgers is a home-favorite tonight over the Badgers and Harper Jr. will be relied upon on for the bulk of this offense. Harper Jr. is an excellent play in all formats and Geo Baker is a solid pivot for cheaper.
Consider - Remy Martin (ASU), Landers Nolley (VT), Kobe King (WIS)
DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Forwards
Romello White - F, ASU vs. PVAM (FanDuel $6,400 DraftKings $7,300)
Remy Martin is going to be popular and it will take a lot of people away from Romello White. White sees a similar usage of around 25% and he gives you a solid discount. White is locked into his 28-32 minutes and he’s as consistent as anyone on the entire slate. Prairie View A&M is undersized on the interior and Romello White is going to eat when he’s on the floor. We do have to be careful of a blowout here, but I don’t see White being held under 30 fantasy points if he gets to his usual minutes.
Isaiah Livers - F, MICH @ ILL (FanDuel $5,900 DraftKings $6,800)
Isaiah Livers is still too cheap, despite being the leading-scorer for Michigan. He averages 15.1 points and 3.6 rebounds per game and plays 34 minutes in every contest. This match-up with the Illinois bigs is a tough one, but Livers will be able to stretch them out and get open shots on the perimeter. His price is still way too cheap on both sites and you’ll see Livers 40% owned in most contests. Expect 20-25 fantasy points with an upside in the 30’s for cheap.
Consider - Jon Teske (MICH), Myles Johnson (RUT), Matt Ryan (CHAT)
