DraftKings CBB DFS Lineup Picks for 3/19/21 - Daily Fantasy College Basketball Advice

CBB DFS lineup picks DraftKings NCAA daily college fantasy basketball

Mike Marteny offers his DraftKings daily fantasy college basketball sleepers for 3/19/21. His CBB DFS lineup picks and sleepers will help you win on DraftKings.

This is what we've been looking forward to for two years now. The NCAA Tournament was called off last year. I've waited two years for the four greatest days in sports. We have 32 games over the next two days. DraftKings did us a favor and left all 16 games on one slate! This is larger than anything aside from the NFL, but I promise you this is more fun. There will be upsets. There will be blowouts. There will be chaos. Let's try and sort through it and land on the right spots.

Landing is going to be the hard part. Five of the game have double-digit spreads. Three of those are over 20 points! We have to be careful when taking pieces from those games. Three games have implied totals under 130. Even though the Rutgers-Clemson spread is only 1.5, the total is just 125.5 points. We have to be careful with games like those. So where do we want to land? Arkansas-Colgate. It has a total of 161 and a single-digit spread. Ohio State-Oral Roberts is the only other one over 150, but it has one of those big spreads (16 points). That said, I think the spread is too high. ORU is a live dog and a great shooting team. They can cause problems come tournament time.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 3/19/21. I’ll be providing multiple player suggestions for players at guard and forward, aiming to highlight one option apiece at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CBB DFS Guards

Moses Moody, Arkansas ($8,400)

The Piggies will go as Moody does. This is one of those games that I highlighted might be an upset. I don't think Colgate has anyone that can handle Moody, but crazy things happen in March. In the first four days of the tournament, logic doesn't mean a whole lot. Moody has topped 40 DraftKings points four times in the last six games. I'm more than a little worried about jitters getting to Cade Cunningham early and I'm worried that Illinois rests their starters for most of the second half. I'm targeting closer games with high totals. This checks all the boxes and Moody is the superstar. JD Notae is a nice option as well if you want to stack the guards in this game.

Jordan Burns, Colgate ($7,300)

Burns does a lot of everything for the toothpaste (okay....okay....they're actually the Raiders). If Colgate is going to hang around in this game, as Vegas and many pundits think they will, Burns will be front and center leading the charge. Burns is the best player the Raiders have had since Adonal Foyle, though they are very different players. Burns is a stat stuffer. He leads the team in scoring, assists, and steals and is third in rebounding. Arkansas is a good team, but the defense is nothing to write home about. Burns is going to have room to operate and is capable of having a monster game here.

Taz Sherman, West Virginia ($6,300)

If Sherman is going to continue to start, which he should, he looks too cheap. He cleared 30 DraftKings points in each of the last two games as a starter against an Oklahoma State team that is one of the hottest in the country coming into the tournament. Miles McBride is more explosive, but there's no value with him anymore. McBride is priced high enough that you almost need a ceiling game from him to hit value. Sherman is a good way to get a piece of this game at a reasonable price.

Chris Arcidiacono, Villanova ($4,900)

Arcidiacono started the only game for the Wildcats after the loss of Collin Gillespie and played reasonably well in the loss to Georgetown. Villanova's tournament hopes ride on the ability of Arcidiacono to run this offense. He took some lumps against Georgetown, but so did everyone else. The Hoyas were a wrecking ball in the Big East tournament. A week of practice with the first team should serve Arcidiacono well, and he's practically guaranteed 35 minutes at a low price. He's definitely worth the risk here, even if we don't know much about his scoring ability.

Also consider: Tre Mann, Florida ($8,500); Max Abmas, Oral Roberts ($7,600); Buddy Boeheim, Syracuse ($7,200); Santiago Vescovi, Tennessee ($5,600); Mardrez McBride, North Texas ($4,600)

DraftKings CBB DFS Forwards

Neemias Queta, Utah State ($9,500)

Queta is a bit of a unicorn in the college game. When was the last time you saw a seven-footer lead his team in scoring? Shaq? Queta leads Utah State in scoring, rebounds, and blocks and averages a double-double on the season. Texas Tech is a really good defensive team, but they only have one player taller than 6'7" and he never plays. Queta is going to be a nightmare for the Red Raiders. I'm not sure the Aggies get enough from the guards to win this game, but Queta is going to wreck Tech on the inside. Texas Tech's only hope is to get him in foul trouble.

Cameron Krutwig, Loyola-Chicago ($8,700)

Forward is absolutely loaded on this slate. I was interested in Krutwig before, but there were others overshadowing him. Now that Moses Wright is out for Georgia Tech, Krutwig might have the highest upside on the entire slate. Krutwig has only been under 30 DraftKings points once since Valentine's Day. That was in a blowout win over Southern Illinois in which he only played 21 minutes. The Ramblers wont run off with this game, but Krutwig will have his way with a Georgia Tech interior that loses a lot of size without Wright.

Justin Smith, Arkansas ($7,700)

Colgate is a team that routinely started four guards this year. They wont be able to do that against Arkansas and survive this game. Smith is very efficient with his shot anyway. How do you think it's going to do with little to no resistance? The last time Smith shot under 50% from the floor was on February 9 against Kentucky. I doubt the Piggies run the offense through Smith, but there are going to be a lot of rebounds up for grabs in a fast-paced game. He should get a lot of easy shots in a variety of ways. Smith is a favorite of mine, especially in a game stack of Arkansas-Colgate.

Rodney Howard, Georgia Tech ($3,300)

It is believed that Howard, not Khalid Moore, will enter the starting lineup for the Bees with Moses Wright out. Moore is still going to see an uptick and minutes and is a solid option himself, but Howard starting at $3,300 is the kind of steal we need with so many talented players on this slate. Moore and Howard both will garner high ownership, so you're going to want to separate your lineups elsewhere. However, I don't view diving in this pool as necessary. This is not a great matchup for Georgia Tech and I expect the guards to take over more than usual. Alvarado and Devoe might end up being the primary benefactors from Wright's absence, not the value plays.

Also consider: Kofi Cockburn, Illinois ($9,200); Keve Aluma, Virginia Tech ($8,500); Kevin Obanor, Oral Roberts ($6,500); Aher Uguak, Loyola-Chicago ($5,300)
