CBB DFS: Main DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (3/2/24)

Oumar Ballo - College Basketball Rankings, NCAA CBB DFS Lineup Picks

Today's Main DraftKings CBB DFS lineup picks for 3/2/24. Mike's top daily fantasy college basketball sleepers to build winning NCAA DFS lineups on DraftKings.

We have another monster Saturday on tap as the college basketball regular season winds down. We only have one more of these after today before the conference tournaments kick-off. We have 35 games split up nicely between three slates and I'll be with you through the whole thing. I'm your college basketball DFS spirit guide. First off, we'll tackle the 12-game main slate. We have four nooners today with Florida in Columbia to take on the Gamecocks, Butler in Chicago to face DePaul, Villanova heading to Providence, and Florida State heading to Atlanta to take on the Bees.

The afternoon starts in Madison with Illinois in town. Kansas heads down to Waco to face Baylor. Arkansas is in Rupp for a date with Kentucky. Oklahoma State heads to Austin to take on Texas. Oregon is in Tucson to face Arizona. Marquette heads to the Birdcage to take on Creighton. Penn State is at The Barn to face the Gophers. We close this slate in Nashville with LSU in town.

This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 3/2/24, 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.

Today's DraftKings Guards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks

Caleb Love, Arizona ($8.7K)

Love put on a show against Oregon in Eugene in the first meeting on January 27. He scored 36 points, ending up with 46.25 DraftKings points. Love isn't always efficient with his shot, but he doesn't shy away from shots either. He's a high-volume shooter who has made at least three shots from distance in six straight games. Love also puts up good assists and rebounding numbers and is an underrated defender. The floor is high and so is the ceiling thanks to his shot volume. The last time he shot under 10 times in a game was on November 13.

Khalif Battle, Arkansas ($7.9K)

Battle has scored 78 points in the last two games alone! Arkansas desperately needed offensive production from somewhere and it was Battle who stepped up. Battle was exiled to the bench earlier this month but has returned to the starting five with a vengeance. He is averaging 27.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.8 steals per game since getting his starting job back. We can work with those numbers.

Elijah Fisher, DePaul ($5.5K)

DePaul is still losing, but they are managing to keep close with some teams. A big reason for that is the scoring of Fisher. He has scored in double figures in five straight games and has at least four rebounds in four straight games. That kind of consistent production plays well in any lineup. Fisher isn't going to break a slate, but he's a lock for 20-25 DraftKings points right now. Most value plays aren't.

Corey Floyd Jr., Providence ($4.7K)

Floyd's playing time increased when Bryce Hopkins went down. Devin Carter and Josh Oduro have filled the void in production. Floyd has gobbled up the minutes. He provides reliable production for the Friars, scoring in double figures in four of the last seven games. You can do a lot worse than that from a value play.

Also consider: Devin Carter, Providence ($9.4K); Terrence Shannon Jr., Illinois ($8.4K); Jordan Wright, LSU ($7.3K); Johnny Furphy, Kansas ($7K); Ja'Kobe Walter, Baylor ($6.7K); Jalen Terry, DePaul ($6.4K); Cam Christie, Minnesota ($6.3K); Kylan Boswell, Arizona ($6K); Primo Spears, Florida State ($5.3K); Stevie Mitchell, Marquette ($5.1K); Hakim Hart, Villanova ($4.9K); Brendan Hausen, Villanova ($4.6K); Tre Norman, Marquette ($3.4K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks

Jamir Watkins, Florida State ($8.3K)

Watkins played just 20 minutes in the first game against Georgia Tech thanks to foul trouble. That game was nearly two months ago. Watkins has gotten much better about defending without fouling and his game has taken off with more court time. Watkins averaged 34.5 DraftKings points per game in February. That includes games against some of the elite bigs in the conference (Duke, Boston College twice, Virginia Tech, and Virginia). We can trust him to stay on the court this time. He had a solid 19.25 DraftKings points in 20 minutes against Tech. He should land in the 30s again tonight.

Eric Dixon, Villanova ($7.5K)

Villanova is a guard-oriented team again. At "only" 6-foot-8, Dixon is their de facto center. As you might expect, he has solid but unspectacular rebounding totals, but he is offensively polished. Dixon has scored at least 20 points in three straight games and has at least 28 DraftKings points in five straight. Dixon struggled with the size of Oduro in the first meeting, but he also played just 25 minutes. I expect Dixon to put up a better showing today.

David Joplin, Marquette ($5.8K)

Surprisingly, both Joplin and Oso Ighodaro had strong games against a big Creighton team in the first meeting. The athleticism of Joplin and Ighodaro played well against the Jays. Jopling put up 22.5 DraftKings points in the first meeting. He's running hot right now as well. Joplin has scored in double figures in three straight games with 13 rebounds, two assists, five blocks, and two steals. He's still underpriced for the numbers he's putting up right now.

Trevon Brazile, Arkansas ($4.9K)

The Hogs have taken it easy with Brazile. He missed seven games with a knee injury and has only played 21 minutes in his two games back. However, he put up 17 DraftKings points in just 17 minutes against Vanderbilt this week. It's doubtful that Brazile plays more than 20 minutes, but he can still put up good numbers for the price with limited minutes. There's not much of a ceiling, but that's normal for value plays.

Also consider: Hunter Dickinson, Kansas ($8.8K); Oumar Ballo, Arizona ($8.2K); Dylan Disu, Texas ($7.9K); Dawson Garcia, Minnesota ($7.7K); Oso Ighodaro, Marquette ($7.2K); Baye Ndongo, Georgia Tech ($6.5K); Baba Miller, Florida State ($5.9K); Cam Corhen, Florida State ($5.6K); Eric Dailey Jr., Oklahoma State ($5.3K); Ben Gold, Marquette ($4.7K); Dain Dainja, Illinois ($4.1K)
