We have a giant Tuesday ahead on DraftKings. There are 17 college basketball games across the two slates. The night slate is a little lighter on the action with only five games, but that doesn't mean an absence of star power in the nightcap. We have a nice mix of Midwest and West Coast games in here, so let's get started!
The slate tips off at the Barn with Minnesota hosting Michigan State. Texas Tech heads to the new basketball palace in Waco to take on the Bears. Nevada heads up to Logan to take on Utah State. Boise heads to Fort Collins to take on the Rams. We close this out about an hour south in Colorado Springs with San Diego State taking on Air Force.
This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 2/6/24, starting at 9 p.m. 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
Great Osobor, Utah State ($9,300)
Maybe Osobor's parents were on to something. Osobor has lived up to his name with at least 32 DraftKings points in every game in the 2024 calendar year. That includes games against Mountain West heavyweights San Diego State, New Mexico, Colorado State, and UNLV. If those teams can't slow Osobor down, I don't know how Nevada has a chance of accomplishing that feat either.
Nique Clifford, Colorado State ($7,700)
Isaiah Stevens is the more well-known name, but Clifford has at least 30 DraftKings points in three straight games and 10 of the last 13 games. Stevens isn't nearly that consistent. Clifford had the better game of the two in the first meeting with Boise State back on January 9. Clifford also has two double-doubles in the last three games. That's a nice little bonus from a guard.
Jayden Nunn, Baylor ($5,100)
Nunn is active on the defensive end and the boards, but he can be an efficient scorer when given the chance. Nunn is sometimes timid with his shots, which does limit his upside. Nunn has scored in double figures nine times this season, but four of those times have occurred in the last month and three of those were in the first four games. The slump appears to be over, so Nunn is a solid GPP play once again.
Darrion Trammell, San Diego State ($4,700)
If you don't feel like taking the risk with Nunn, Trammell is a nice pivot in cash formats. Trammell has at least 20 DraftKings points in four of the last five games after a slow start to the season. He's in the starting lineup for the Aztecs now, so the ceiling is even higher. We would like to see him more aggressive on the offensive end, but I can also draft him knowing that I have a comfortable floor for a value play.
Also consider: Pop Isaacs, Texas Tech ($7,900); Elijah Hawkins, Minnesota ($7,800); A.J. Hoggard, Michigan State ($7,400): Max Rice, Boise State ($6,300); Langston Love, Baylor ($5,600); Micah Parrish, San Diego State ($5,300); Josiah Strong, Colorado State ($5,000); Hunter McIntosh, Nevada ($3,600)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks
Dawson Garcia, Minnesota ($7,900)
Garcia has scored at least 20 points in four of the last five games, including 22 against the Spartans in East Lansing back on January 18. Injuries and inconsistency hampered Garcia early on, but he seems to be back on track now. He has at least 25 DraftKings points in every game this calendar year. The 33.25 that he posted against Michigan State was the third-highest total. He should be able to at least come close to that tonight.
Joel Scott, Colorado State ($6,800)
Scott struggled some in the first meeting with Boise State back on January 9, but he has at least 21 DraftKings points in every game since then. Scott has scored in double figures in all of those games and averaged nearly one rebound more than his season average and half an assist more as well. His game is becoming more well-rounded. I'm curious to see if he can do it against Boise this time around.
Jay Pal, San Diego State ($5,200)
Pal earned his first start of the season over the weekend and put up 16 points, seven rebounds, a steal, and two blocks in 25 minutes. That's a terrific value at this price. It would be a shock if Pal didn't start this game as well. Pal was the spark that the Aztecs needed after losing two of the previous three games.
Tylan Pope, Nevada ($3,900)
Pope has been a big contributor for the Pack lately. He has 30 points, 13 rebounds, four blocks, a steal, and an assist over 50 minutes in the last four games. He might not have much of a ceiling given the amount of minutes he plays, but Pope has been one of the best Nevada bench players lately. His 15 minutes against San Jose State were the most he had played since December 30. If you need a really cheap play, Pope's floor is better than most.
Also consider: Jaedon LeDee, San Diego State ($8,400); O'Mar Stanley, Boise State ($7,400); Warren Washington, Texas Tech ($7,000); Jalen Bridges, Baylor ($6,600); Pharrel Payne, Minnesota ($6,400); K.J. Hymes, Nevada ($4,900); Carson Cooper, Michigan State ($4,400)
