Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel – 3/25/16

Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel - 3/25/16 The first weekend of the NCAA tournament was nothing short of crazy this year, producing some unlikely upsets, and some even more unlikely comebacks (Wisconsin and Texas A&M anyone?). There's just something in the air during March that just breeds craziness, and I'm guessing this second weekend will produce plenty more madness. That's where we come in, where we navigate the upcoming CBB games to deliver our favorite value plays for each night of action. We've got a shorter 4 game slate tonight, so finding good plays at discounted prices will be crucial. We had a good bit of success with our picks last weekend, so let's keep it rolling. Playing other daily fantasy sports like NBA or NHL. Go ahead and get access to the exclusive projection system that produces all of our picks.

Click here to sign up Upper Tier Brice JohnsonFD - 9600 DK - 10500 UNC was my pick to win the NCAA tournament this year and Brice Johnson is a big reason why. Johnson was one of only two players to average a double-double in the ACC this season, and finished second in player of the year voting to Malcolm Brogdon. Johnson has stepped it up even more in the NCAA tournament, averaging 19.5 ppg, 8.5 rpg and a ridiculous 5 blocks per game (although 8 of those came against a 16-seed). Indiana does not have a defensively dominant front-court, and certainly don't have anyone who can guard Johnson on the inside. This game has an insane O/U of 158.5 at the time of this writing, so it's going to be nothing short of a track meet. Indiana also ranks 222nd in the nation in opponent field goal %, which bodes well for Johnson since he does all of his damage from the foul line down. I'm not really going out on a limb here, but I think Johnson ends up with the highest raw score of the night. Malcolm Brogdon FD - 8700 DK - 8500 The aforementioned ACC player of the year, Malcolm Brogdon has been one of the best and most consistent players in the country. He's Virginia's unquestionable leader, and he's relied on heavily by the Cavaliers as evidenced by his 28.5% usage rate. Virginia doesn't have the most explosive offense in the country, but should be helped in this game by Iowa St.'s terrible scoring defense, which is ranked 248th in the country. It's hard to quantify, but great players always seem to play their best in big games, and Brogdon has proven time and...

Click here to sign up Upper Tier Grayson AllenFD - 9700 DK - 10000 Brandon Ingram FD - 9000 DK - 9500 I don't think that you can go wrong with either of these guys tonight, so I'm just going to roll them together into one pick. Allen has the better matchup because Oregon struggles to defend the perimeter, and Oregon has 3-4 very athletic big men who can (at least decently) match-up with Ingram. The reason I like Ingram though is that he comes in at a much lower price (particularly on FanDuel), and has proven that when he's on, he can score on anyone. This game has an insane O/U of 156.5, so everyone is anticipating a shootout here. It's really a coin flip between these two, but if I had to choose I'd probably go with Ingram on FanDuel and Allen on DraftKings. Elgin Cook FD - 8700 DK - 7700 On the other side of this matchup we've got Elgin Cook, who is looking to build on his solid first weekend where he averaged 14.5 ppg, 8.5 rpg and 4 apg over the course of two games. The senior forward has really come on strong down the stretch, and he's averaging higher scoring, rebounding, assist and steal numbers over his last ten games when compared to his season averages. As I already mentioned, the O/U means this game should be played at a breakneck pace, which as you know is always a plus for DFS. Duke has struggled this season against teams with strong scoring front-courts, and I think Cook's potential makes him a must start on DraftKings, and at least deserving of a look on FanDuel.   Middle Tier Angel Rodriguez FD - 7800 DK...

Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel - 3/20/16 We're back at it again for another exciting day of March Madness. I'm not sure about everyone else, but my bracket isn't looking too hot, so I'm turning my entire focus to DFS from here on out. I'm glad that we've made it to the next round where the matchup's are more competitive, and the games are a bit more predictable (hopefully, but they don't call it March Madness for nothing). There's a few games on this slate with some pretty high O/U's which we love to see, so let's get the picks rolling. Playing other daily fantasy sports like NBA or NHL. Go ahead and get access to the exclusive projection system that produces all of our picks. Sign up now and get our lineup construction tool for FanDuel & DraftKings. Click here to sign up Upper Tier DeAndre BembryFD - 9600 DK - 9500 My favorite pick on tonight's slate is St. Joseph's do-it-all forward DeAndre Bembry. Bembry has been on an insane run this season, averaging 17 ppg, 8 rpg and 4.5 apg on the season. He's also first on his team in usage %, so he's the go-to-guy who the Hawks run their entire offense through. He's gone for over 30 FD points in 8 of his last 10 games, including multiple 40 point performances, so he can be relied upon to put up solid numbers night in and night out. The matchup with Oregon is good from the standpoint that this game has the highest O/U on the slate by far, so it should be very high scoring. He's got a tougher individual matchup against Chris Bouchard, but I still expect Bembry to have one of the highest DFS scores of the night. Zach Auguste FD - 8800 DK - 8700 One of only two guys to average a double-double in the ACC this season, Zach Auguste from Notre Dame has been very consistent this season for the Fighting Irish. He's been especially aggressive on the glass over his last 5 games, out-rebounding his season average by 3 rpg over that stretch. That's why I really love this matchup vs the Lumberjacks from Stephen F Austin, who really lack any kind of strong inside presence. The O/U is pretty high, and the spread is low so I'm expecting a fast-paced, competitive game here. This has massive double-double potential written all over it, and I'll have Auguste in all of my lineups to take advantage of that today. Elgin Cook FD - 8500 DK - 7700 Another big guy from the Oregon vs St. Joseph's game that I like is Elgin Cook out of...

Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel - 3/19/16 We're back at it again for another exciting day of March Madness. As of this writing we've seen some strange things happen (I'm looking at you Michigan State), while some of the dominant teams look every bit as dominant as we expected. As the tournament gets deeper, the matchup's get more competitive so finding good picks across all price points is key to cashing in this college basketball postseason. We've got our favorite value guys on the slate, so let's get to it. Playing other daily fantasy sports like NBA or NHL. Go ahead and get access to the exclusive projection system that produces all of our picks. Sign up now and get our lineup construction tool for FanDuel & DraftKings. Click here to sign up Upper Tier Georges NiangFD - 9900 DK - 10100 I wrote about him last time and boy did he deliver, posting a monster 28 point performance while accumulating some good stats across all of the other categories. I loved the matchup last time, and while this one isn't quite as good, it's still very favorable for Niang. Little Rock, while obviously formidable, doesn't have any strong interior presence and really struggled with Purdue on the inside (even though they won). Judging by last game, the Cyclones are going to run their entire offense through Niang (he took 23 shots) and I don't see that kind of usage changing as long as they continue to advance. I think this game is going to be higher scoring than many think, and Niang should have another big game here. Jamal Murray FD - 9100 DK - 9000 He struggled in the first half against Stony Brook last time out, but improved dramatically in the second half to reach a respectable value of greater than x3. Believe it or not, I actually like his matchup against Indiana just as much, if not more than the previous matchup with Stony Brook because outside of Yogi Ferrel, Indiana doesn't really have any guards that scare me too much. Robert Johnson is back playing, but I don't think he's quite 100% in game shape just yet, so Murray should see plenty of time being guarded by well, quite frankly people who can't guard him. He leads the team in scoring and shot attempts, and in a fast paced game with Indiana I think he's got a great chance to really fill it up today. Brandon Ingram FD - 8700 DK - 9500 Another guy I really like today is Brandon Ingram out of Duke. This kid has been sensational this season, ranking second on his team in scoring and...

Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel – 3/18/16

Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel - 3/18/16 March Madness is upon us and it feels so good. As I'm writing this only one big upset has occurred, although a 12 over a 5 doesn't really seem like an upset anymore because it happens so often. But anyways, another way to supplement your love for postseason college basketball is with some DFS, and we've got you covered with some of our favorite value plays for Friday's massive slate. If you've got some ideas or questions about any of the picks, feel free to drop a comment below and as always, best of luck during this month of madness. Playing other daily fantasy sports like NBA or NHL. Go ahead and get access to the exclusive projection system that produces all of our picks. Sign up now and get our lineup construction tool for FanDuel & DraftKings. Click here to sign up Upper Tier Gary Payton IIFD - 9400 DK - 10100 My favorite big dollar guy on the slate today is Gary Payton II, the senior guard out of Oregon State. I love Payton because he’s similar to Denzel Valentine in that he does everything for his team, but he comes in at about a 20% discount. Payton II leads his team in scoring, rebounding, assists, and steals, so you know he’s going to be relied on heavily today against VCU. The Rams are about an average defensive team, and don’t really have any defensively intimidating guards who can shut Payton down. The O/U on this game is decent, and the spread is pretty close, so I fully expect Payton II to get his normal minutes and put up big numbers in this one. Buddy Hield FD - 9100 DK - 10600 I don’t like the price on DraftKings, but the FanDuel price has come down enough to where I think Hield makes a terrific value play. Hield is the second leading scorer in the country at 25 ppg, and has an insanely high usage rate of 30.5%. The potential for a big scoring game is definitely here because Bakersfield doesn’t have anyone who can effectively matchup with Hield on the perimeter. There is some concern for a blowout in this one, but I still think that Hield will get enough minutes and usage in this one to reach value. Isaiah Miles FD - 8300 DK - 8600 Another guy I really like who’s a bit cheaper than the aforementioned guys is Isaiah Miles out of St. Joseph’s. The senior forward has truly been an offensive force this season, leading the Hawks in scoring and rebounding, all while shooting 53% from the floor, 39% from 3,...
