Today's Main DraftKings college basketball DFS lineup picks for 3/11/23. Mike Marteny's CBB daily fantasy advice and lineup sleepers to help you win on DraftKings.
The early had some semifinals, but the main slate tonight gives us some good conference championship games. You know...for the normal conference that doesn't want their champions just jammed into the bracket wherever they fit tomorrow. The Big 12(10) championship is a rematch between Kansas and Texas, the game that ended the Big 12(10) regular season. Kansas beat them by eight in Lawrence and lost by 16 in Austin. The Mountain West makes its DraftKings conference championship week debut with San Diego State facing Utah State. The Aggies lost by two in Logan and ten in San Diego, but likely need this to get into the tournament.
The Big East title game tips from the Garden at 6:30 with Xavier facing Marquette. Xavier won by four in Cincinnati and lost by one in Milwaukee. Next up is the ACC, featuring a white-hot Duke team taking on the Hoos. Virginia beat them by seven in Charlottesville this year. We finish out west with UCLA taking on Arizona. UCLA beat them by nine in Pauley and lost by six in Tucson.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 3/11/23, starting at 6 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
Tyler Kolek, Marquette ($9,500)
Kolek's 36.5 DraftKings points last night against UConn was his fewest since the game in Omaha on February 21. You can blame it on foul trouble. Kolek only played 28 minutes last night. That should leave him fresh for another matchup with Xavier, a team he dropped 78 DraftKings points on in 72 minutes this season. Kolek will be flirting with 40 again.
Tyger Campbell, UCLA ($7,500)
Jaquez may get all of the attention, but Campbell is really the glue of this team. He does a little of everything and has done a lot of scoring of late. Campbell has at least 14 points in five straight games and double-digit peripheral stats in each of those games as well. He makes the loss of Jaylen Clark hurt a lot less for the Bruins. Campbell dropped 34.25 on Arizona last weekend to end the regular season and has 81.75 DraftKings points in the two games of the Pac-12 tournament. He's almost as hot as Kolek and a full $2,000 cheaper.
Amari Bailey, UCLA ($5,600)
Bailey is the direct result of Clark going down. He has stepped into the starting five nicely. He struggled a bit against Arizona in the first start, but he has put up 56.75 DraftKings points in the first two games of the Pac-12 Tournament. Bailey can provide good scoring at a low price but adds a bit of risk since he's mostly a scorer. If Arizona shuts him down, we're in trouble.
Desmond Claude, Xavier ($4,000)
The loss of Zach Freemantle has opened up some more minutes for the freshman. Claude has played at least 22 minutes in five straight games, putting up at least 17 DraftKings points in four of those five games. It's not just scoring either. Claude has only scored in double figures twice in that span. He's a high-energy guy that's all over the floor. He just keeps getting better and his price is the lowest it has been since February 10.
Also consider: Colby Jones, Xavier ($8,700); Souley Boum, Xavier ($8,400); Jordan Miller, Miami ($8,200); Dajuan Harris, Kansas ($7,100); Max Shulga, Utah State ($6,800); Sir'Jabari Rice, Texas ($6,600); Pelle Larson, Arizona ($5,900); Lamont Butler, San Diego State ($4,800);

DraftKings CBB DFS Forwards
Jalen Wilson, Kansas ($9,300)
Wilson has the ability to take over games. He has a double-double in all three March games so far, including the season-ending loss in Austin. Since Texas is without Timmy Allen again, it makes sense for the Jayhawks to go after them in the middle. This is basically a home game for Kansas and Wilson has at least 35 DraftKings points in four straight games now. Expect a fifth here tonight.
Jayden Gardner, Virginia ($7,100)
Gardner had his worst game of the season against Duke in the only meeting this year, playing through (and sitting through) foul trouble in that game. The Hoos are at their best when Gardner is at his best. He has turned in double-doubles in both games in Greensboro, piling up 81.5 DraftKings points in the process. He's a great bargain if he can stay on the court against Duke this time.
Dylan Disu, Texas ($5,700)
Disu has turned in 64.75 DraftKings points in the two games in Kansas City without Allen. Texas has already stated that Allen won't play tonight and it's the right decision for the Longhorns. That trophy would look nice in their trophy case, but they're after the bigger trophy and have a chance to make a run at it this year. Saving Allen makes sense. That leaves Disu as a senior leader that gives them good minutes in place of Allen.
Christian Bishop, Texas ($4,400)
The Creighton transfer has seen his role diminish a lot this year from his first year in Austin last year. Texas just has too much talent. He proved last night that he still has something left in the tank by pouring in 15 points and nabbing seven rebounds against TCU. They're going to need his presence on the inside against Kansas, but due to Bishop's volatility, I view this as a GPP-only play.
Also consider: Jaime Jaquez, UCLA ($9,900); Jack Nunge, Xavier ($8,300); Oso Ighodaro, Marquette ($7,300); Taylor Funk, Utah State ($6,700); Mark Mitchell, Duke ($6,000); Dariq Whitehead, Duke ($4,100); Kadin Shedrick, Virginia ($3,600)
