DraftKings NCAA Tournament Final Four CBB DFS Lineup Picks For 4/1/23 - Daily Fantasy College Basketball Advice

Adama Sanogo - CBB DFS Picks, NCAA Daily College Fantasy Basketball

Today's DraftKings college basketball Final Four DFS lineup picks for 4/1/23. Mike Marteny's CBB daily fantasy advice and lineup sleepers to help you win on DraftKings.

We have a fantastic bunch of misfits in the Final Four this year. The ones, twos, and threes are all gone; most have been for a while now. Who's left in this post-apocalyptic NCAA Tournament landscape? Three teams are making their Final Four debuts. The only grizzled veterans are UConn...who was also the highest-seeded team (3) left in the only other previously decimated Final Four (2011). UConn also won the title that year. Is that a harbinger of things to come?

This is the first Final Four without a McDonald's All-American since seeding began in 1979. So welcome to the promised land San Diego State, Florida Atlantic, and Miami. That's going to make this a whole lot of fun. We open this up with the mid-majors San Diego State and Florida Atlantic. We close it out with new-favorite UConn taking on Miami.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on April 1, 2023, starting at 6:09 pm Eastern. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions at guard and forward, aiming to highlight one option at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CBB DFS Guards

Jordan Miller, Miami ($7,700)

Miller was huge in the comeback win over Texas in the Regional Final. He poured in 27 points and didn't miss one single shot in the entire game! Miller made all seven shots from the floor and all 13 from the line. He is a normally efficient shooter anyway, so this wasn't too much of a surprise. I'm not judging Miller solely on one flawless game. He has scored 66 points in four tournament games, and that's including a dreadful start against Drake. The production is going to be there. Miller is one of the most consistent men left standing.

Andre Jackson, Connecticut ($7,100)

Jackson had a really rough stretch from mid-January to mid-February when his shot wasn't falling and he was perpetually in foul trouble. It felt like Jackson had two fouls by the opening tip in some of those games. Now the good news: Marquette is the only team to foul him out in the last two months (they did it twice). Jackson is back on track in the tournament, racking up 31 points, 31 assists, 28 rebounds, and four steals in the four games so far. His peripherals are off-the-charts and by far better than anyone else in the tournament. Add in the fact that he has outscored his season average, and you have a recipe for DFS success.

Lamont Butler, San Diego State ($5,900)

The fact that the Aztecs are still dancing despite an absolutely awful tournament from leading-scorer Matt Bradley is nothing short of a miracle. The miracle just might be Butler. The Aztecs specialize in suffocating defense and slowing down the other team. They have only allowed 229 points in the four tournament games.

That means they haven't had to score a whole lot either, but Butler has 41 points in four games -- quite a bit above his 8.7 average on the season. The San Diego State guards are a DFS minefield. If you are convinced that Bradley is going to snap out of it, you'll never get him cheaper. If not, Butler is your guy, but I wouldn't use both in the same lineup.

Also consider: Johnell Davis, Florida Atlantic ($7,600); Jordan Hawkins, Connecticut ($6,900); Wooga Poplar, Miami ($6,200); Bryan Greenlee, Florida Atlantic ($4,400)

DraftKings CBB DFS Forwards

Adama Sanogo, Connecticut ($8,200)

Sanogo has been inconsistent at times this year. The harsh reality is that sometimes the guards just forget about him. UConn is built much like an NBA team. Most of the guys on the team can create for themselves and aren't reliant on someone to get them the ball. Sanogo fits the mold of the current athletic bigs that are taking over the NBA, but he still needs someone to help him out. UConn has moved the offense through Sanogo in the tournament. He has scored 80 points and dished out seven assists in four games. I expect him to be heavily involved against a Miami team that is built similarly to the Huskies.

Norchad Omier, Miami ($8,100)

The Final Four is made up of four guard-dominated teams. When we find a forward that has been able to consistently thrive in those environments, I think we have to use...both of them. Omier is a capable scorer but derives most of his value from dominance on the boards. He has 53 rebounds in four tournament games to go with eight steals and six assists. The 42 points are mostly an afterthought. We're playing him for the outstanding peripherals.

Donovan Clingan, Connecticut ($5,100)

Clingan only plays 12-15 minutes per game, so using him can be a harrowing experience. That said, Clingan is a high-energy guy when he's in there. He has 27 points, 21 rebounds, nine blocks, and three assists in just 52 minutes in the NCAA Tournament. From a pure PPM standpoint, few are better. Clingan could see good minutes with Omier on the other block or if Sanogo winds up in foul trouble. In any case, Clingan hasn't missed double-digit DraftKings points since March 9 against Providence. He's a relatively low-risk value play, which makes him a valuable commodity on a two-game slate.

Also consider: Vladislav Goldin, Florida Atlantic ($6,600); Alex Karaban, Connecticut ($6,100); Jaedon LeDee, San Diego State ($5,300)
