DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Guards
Tyrese Haliburton - G, Iowa State (DraftKings $8,800)
Alabama plays at one of the fastest paces in the country and it gives you a huge bump up at guard. Especially for Tyrese Haliburton, who thrives in the open floor. Halliburton is coming off of a game in which he scored 50 fantasy points on 25 points, nine rebounds, five assists, and four steals. The six-foot-five Halliburton is an NBA prospect and can beat anyone in the NCAA 1-on-1. It's going to be extremely fun to see him match-up with a fast-paced team with another powerhouse in Kira Lewis Jr. Haliburton is a great play in all formats.
Markus Howard - G, Marquette (DraftKings $8,400)
Markus Howard is one of the best scorers in basketball and he’s struggled mightily in the last two games. The defensive-inefficient Davidson is in a great bounce-back spot as they’re willing to play at a high pace and Howard is going to want to prove that he’s perfectly fine. His price has come down on DraftKings and I’m a fan in all formats.
Taj Benning - G, Fairfield (DraftKings $5,200)
Benning plays huge minutes for Fairfield. He’s been over 40 minutes in three of the last four games and doesn’t come off the court in most games. He’ll be back to his full 40 minutes tonight and you can put up points against USC. You also have a better shot of doing so on the perimeter. Taj Benning is a solid value option in all formats.
DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Forwards
Precious Achiuwa - F, Memphis (DraftKings $7,900)
Since James Wiseman went out, Precious Achiuwa has taken over and is the clear number one option on this Memphis offense. He’s been over 30 fantasy points in three straight games and these guards have been feeding him. In those three games, Achiuwa has posted a wild 33% usage rate. Until Wiseman returns, we want to keep playing Achiuwa in all formats.
Isaiah Livers - F, Michigan (DraftKings $6,400)
Isaiah Livers is going to be a huge part of this game if Michigan wants any shot at beating North Carolina. Fortunately, Livers isn’t afraid to shoot and he can easily put up 20 on any given night. UNC plays extremely fast and Livers loves being in the open floor. His floor is about 25 fantasy points and the price is far too low on both sites.
