CBB DFS Players to Target
Jahlil Okafor – F Duke, $8,600
Okafor being under $9,000 is just a steal. San Diego State cannot bang bodies down low with Duke. Okafor is such a good passer that sometimes in discourages teams from doubling him. If Okafor gets a one on one matchup look for Duke to feed him the ball all day. Once they do start doubling Okafor look for him to start piling up the assists. Also, San Diego State likes to crash the offensive glass so look for Okafor to be a strong presence on the defensive boards.
Przemek Karnowski – F Gonzaga, $6,200
Karnowski dominated in his first game with his size inside. While Iowa is very big inside look for Karnowski to be able to overpower them and still put up big numbers. Iowa is just as tall, but not nearly as physical or talented as Karnowski is inside. Look for Karnowski to also play a lot of minutes because Gonzaga is going to need him on the defensive end as Iowa packs it down low all game long.
Devin Williams – F West Virginia, $7,100
Devin Williams is just a large body down low, with excellent hands a footwork. He goes extremely hard to the basket and gives smaller defenders fits. Maryland is very undersized and has trouble dealing with very physical players down low. Look for Devin Williams to start out attacking the hoop hard and trying to get Dodd in foul trouble. When Dodd needs a rest or if he gets in foul trouble, Williams will have a field day.
CBB DFS Value Plays
Richaud Pack– G Marland, $4,500
Pack, a starter for Maryland, shot terribly in round one, only attempting two shots. West Virginia plays an extremely high pressure defense. If Maryland is able to break the press they will end up having a lot of open threes. With Pack being an excellent shooter look for him to avenge his first tournament game and start to fill it up. At only $4,500 the upside for Pack is just tremendous.
Wayne Selden Jr. – G Kansas, $5,400
Kansas is going to need to score some easy baskets in transition if they are going to win. Selden is an athletic freak and loves to run. Selden did not score that much in Kansas’s first round win but he was very active. Look for him to be more involved in what should be a very good game against Wichita State. Wichita State loves to run and make the game a very fast paced game and that is perfect for the very athletic Selden.
CBB DFS Players to avoid
Melo Trimble – G Maryland, $8,200
Trimble was one of the best point guards in the country this year. He has a knack for drawing fouls and drains his free throws. With all that being said, Trimble’s one down fall this year has been turnovers. All West Virginia does is press and try and force turnovers. If Trimble has a couple of boneheaded turnovers in the beginning of the game look for his minutes to get cut. $8,200 is just a little too high for Trimble against West Virginia.
Aaron White– F Iowa $9,500
Aaron White had a career game against Davidson in his first round matchup. That could be why White is so expensive. Davidson has one of the worst interior defenses in the entire country and had no one that could matchup with White. Gonzaga is much better defensively and has some big bodies that could keep White in check. Look for White to not be able to replicate round one, and not be worth the money.
