It is finally TIME FOR COLLEGE BASKETBALL! November 13 kicks off the first DraftKings College Basketball contests of the year and once again I hope to be posting CBB every night.
This will be my first year playing CBB, so it will take a while to get back into the swing of things as I have not watched that closely the past 2 seasons. And with UK that means their whole team gets changed.
DraftKings CBB 11/13/15 Lineup
| Position | Name | Team | Salary | Projections |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| G | Grayson Allen | SIENA@ DUKE | 6100 | Duke gets an opening night matchup against what will be outclassed Siena. It will be good to see how much Allen can do, in the limited minutes he may get. |
| G | Justin Jackson | UNC @TEMP | 6900 | UNC needs to make a statement early and often this year to get back to the top of CBB. |
| G | P. Jackson-Ca... | PAC@ AZ | 5900 | Arizona should be good again, how good? Too early to tell but they sure did lose a lot to the NBA. |
| F | Isaiah Hicks | UNC @TEMP | 4400 | Hicks has some talent, let us see how many minutes he gets in this one. |
| F | Skal Labissiere | ALB@ UK | 8100 | UK #1 class again. Will he be another one and done? |
| F | Kyle Wiltjer | PITT@ GONZ | 7800 | Stat stuffer here. Gonzaga always lets me down in March though. |
| UTIL | Javan Felix | UT @UW | 5300 | Potential to be a 20 point scorer every night. |
| UTIL | Kaleb Tarczewski | PAC@ AZ | 5500 | A machine down low, I think his offense will be improved this year. |
| Total | 50000 |
Most my DFS NBA free picks are meant to be for 50/50 contests, but they also do work in GPP tournaments as well. Again, I always tell the followers that you should never just blindly follow Johnny G fantasy advice, but use it as a tool to determine your own lineup. You will get to be a better DFS player in the long run.
Also, check out my FanDuel 11/13/15 NBA Lineups too!
It will be tough for a few weeks, so do not get discouraged if you have some duds. The games will be played till March, so ease into the 50/50 contests and do not do anything drastic… unless you are an expert… but then why would you listen to what I have to say. Good luck everyone!
Do you recommend playing small entry 50/50 contests or the larger entry ones?
If you want to spend $5 bucks, I would entry 5 $1 50/50 contests with 100 people in each. Here is why: There is some variation on which players are drafted. I have had lineups come in 45th place in one and 51st place in another. So, to hedge your plays I like to spread out the lineup among multiple contests. In theory too, the better plays could be at the higher prize 50/50’s as well.
