This is going to be a fun week of college basketball! We have the ACC/SEC Challenge and the Big 12/Big East Challenge going on for the next few days. One of those starts this slate with Cincinnati in Philly to face Villanova. We also have BYU in Providence to end the main slate. Northwestern and Iowa are playing a conference game because the Big Ten has 18 teams. Who knew? The conference name sure doesn't help clear things up.
The meat is in the middle, with South Carolina climbing Chestnut Hill to face Boston College. Arkansas heads to Miami. Notre Dame is in Athens to face Georgia. We have the real Orange Bowl with Syracuse at Thompson-Boling to take on Tennessee. Cal heads to Columbia to take on Missouri.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 12/3/24, starting at 6:30 p.m. EST. 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
Brooks Barnhizer, Northwestern ($8.9K)

All of Barnhizer's stat lines look like that. He has at least 34 DraftKings points in all four games. The "low" game was in 31 minutes in a blowout win over Pepperdine. It isn't just the scoring -- Barnhizer is averaging eight rebounds and four assists per game to go with it ... along with 1.8 steals. He's stuffing stat sheets like we stuffed turkeys last week.
Egor Demin, BYU ($7.8K)
Demin has been very consistent for BYU, at least with the floor. His ceiling fluctuates some, but he hasn't been under 28 DraftKings points. I like that kind of security with 50+ DraftKings points upside. I don't think he has that ceiling against Providence, but he might hit 40.
Chaz Lanier, Tennessee ($6.5K)
Tennessee brought in the sharpshooter from North Florida to replace Dalton Knecht. He has done a pretty good job so far. Lanier is averaging 17.7 points per game, but he doesn't offer much else. When he's hot, though, no one can guard him. Lanier has hit 17 three-point shots (in 35 attempts) over the last three games alone.
Jeremiah Wilkinson, California ($4.4K)
The freshman has turned heads over the last three games with 63 points, seven assists, six rebounds, three steals, and a block in 82 minutes. Wilkinson was a non-factor in Cal's first few games, but he has been the leading scorer in two of the last three games.
Also consider: Zakai Zeigler, Tennessee ($8.6K); Boogie Fland, Arkansas ($7.6K); Brock Harding, Iowa ($7.5K); Andrej Stojakovic, California ($6.7K); J.J. Starling, Syracuse ($6.4K); Tyrin Lawrence, Georgia ($6.2K); Corey Floyd Jr., Providence ($5.6K); Anthony Robinson II, Missouri ($4.7K)

Dixon hasn't done anything to hurt his stats in the two games since. He had 54 points, seven assists, seven rebounds, and four steals in 64 minutes. We have no reason to believe that Dixon can't keep this up.
Adou Thiero, Arkansas ($8.1K)
Boogie Fland gets much of the attention, but Thiero has been the better all-around player. Thiero is averaging 19.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 2.9 steals, and 0.8 blocks so far this season. He's shooting well, he's shooting often, and Thiero has played excellent defense. What's not to like?
Owen Freeman, Iowa ($7.1K)
Freeman is an excellent shooter who just happens to be a force on the boards as well. Not only that, but Freeman is an elite rim protector. He has 13 blocks in six games. Freeman racks up DraftKings points quickly because of the effortless scoring and elite defense.
Zvonimir Ivisic, Arkansas ($6.3K)
This is what we expected to see from Ivisic last year with Kentucky. He is getting consistent minutes this year and making the most of them. Ivisic is averaging 12.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.8 blocks, 1.1 steals, and 0.7 assists in 24 minutes per game. The floor is solid for Ivisic this year.
Oswin Erhunmwunse, Providence ($3.7K)
The freshman first cracked the Providence rotation in Atlantis. By the last game of the tournament, he had cracked the starting lineup. Erhunmwunse hasn't played more than 20 minutes in a game yet, but he has 43 DraftKings points in 37 minutes over the last two games. He's an intriguing GPP long shot tonight.
Also consider: Collin Murray-Boyles, South Carolina ($9.3K); Asa Newell, Georgia ($8K); Dillon Mitchell, Cincinnati ($7.2K); Tae Davis, Notre Dame ($6.5K); Matthew Nicholson, Northwestern ($5.5K); Billy Richmond III, Arkansas ($5K); Elijah Strong, Boston College ($4.7K)
