In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for FanDuel and DraftKings on 11/18/19. These CBB DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks.

DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Guards
Eddie Stansberry - G, Hawaii (DraftKings $7,800 / FanDuel $7,100)
Stansberry barely comes off the floor, playing 157 of 160 minutes so far this season. Hawaii is a 15-point underdog in this game, but the total is relatively high and Hawaii is still going to put up 60+ points. Stansberry is heavily leaned on to score and he fills up the stat sheet well. Illinois isn’t a lockdown defense by any means and I’m expecting another 30 fantasy points out of Stansberry here.
Tyrese Maxey - G, Kentucky (DraftKings $6,800 / FanDuel $6,100)
With Ashton Hagans questionable to play, I like both Maxey and Quickley. Even if Hagans plays, I doubt he’ll play his full allotment of minutes in what should be a blowout. I prefer Maxey as he’s cheaper and has an undoubted higher ceiling. If he gets hot from three, 40 fantasy points isn’t a big deal to him. He’s going to have some huge games this season and you won’t want to look the other way. His floor is 25 fantasy points, which is fine at his price.
Trent Frazier - G, Illinois (DraftKings $5,000 / FanDuel $4,600)
Trent Frazier hasn’t broken out yet, but he’s been over 30 minutes in every game so far and the match-up couldn’t be better. A 147 over/under doesn’t blow anyone out of the water, but Hawaii plays fast and Illinois will match them. Frazier should benefit as he thrives in the open floor and he will have as many open threes as his heart desires.

John Mooney - F, Notre Dame (FanDuel $8,000)
Money is the most expensive option on the board and rightfully so. He’s put up 52 and 48 fantasy points in each of the last two games and gets another friendly match-up with Presbyterian. Mooney averaged 14 points and 11 rebounds last season and is off to an insane start this season. He’s seeing the ball more than ever with the offense all his and he’s showing his reliability. It’ll be interesting to see how he does against tougher competition, but we don’t have to worry about that tonight.
Rapolas Ivanauskas - F, Colgate (DraftKings $7,600 / FanDuel $6,200)
Ivanauskas is going to be needed in a big way with Isaac Okoro on the inside. I suspect Ivanauskas will play another 30+ minutes and this over/under is attractive. Auburn is a decent defensive team, but those of these teams play fast and I wouldn’t be surprised if this game finishes in the high-70s. I suspect the underdogs will be pretty under-owned tonight and I’m a big fan of Ivanauskas in all formats.
