We have another big slate with 12 games tonight. We tip a half-hour earlier than usual with Penn State hosting Michigan State. 7pm Eastern brings a lot of action with A&M hosting Florida, Wake heading to Cameron Indoor, Florida State hosting Clemson, Cincinnati hosting Memphis, and the Red River Throwdown in Norman.
An hour later Providence hosts Villanova. The 9:00 hour is busy with Arkansas at Missouri, Tennessee hosting Kentucky, Wisconsin heading to Indiana, TCU hosting Iowa State, and DePaul hosting Butler to close out this slate. It's going to be a wild one!
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 2/15/22 starting at 6:30pm Eastern. I’ll be providing multiple player suggestions for players at guard and forward, aiming to highlight one option apiece at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CBB DFS Guards
JD Notae, Arkansas ($8,500)
Notae only played 24 minutes against Alabama due to some first half foul trouble, but he still put up 25.25 DraftKings points. That was his lowest total in the month of February. Notae's performance in the first game against Missouri was a little disappointing with only 27.5 DraftKings points, but Notae only played 27 minutes in that game because Mizzou lost by 44 points. Assuming the Tigers can keep it closer this time, I wouldn't be that surprised if Notae led all guards on the night.
Damion Baugh, TCU ($7,100)
Baugh had the best game of his college career against Iowa State back on January 22. He likely wont have seven steals again, but that was the only real outlier in his stat line. The 23 points, while a season high, aren't way above where he has been lately. Baugh has averaged 16 points per game over the last five games en route to at least 24 DraftKings points in each one. Don't count on him topping 50 again, but 30 seems likely. For the price, I'll take it.
Jared Bynum, Providence ($7,000)
The undersized guard is on a bit of a heater. The reigning Big East Player of the Week scored 57 actual points in 68 minutes last week to go with 12 rebounds, eight assists, and six steals. On top of that, he made 11 out of 16 attempts from beyond the arc. Bynum has at least four made threes in three straight games, topping 30 DraftKings points in each of those. This is a tougher match against Villanova, but it's hard to ignore the hot hand.
Jordan Goldwire, Oklahoma ($6,000)
The Duke transfer took a bit to get going in Norman, but he has become the scorer that Oklahoma thought they were going to get after he transferred out of Durham to become more of a scorer. Goldwire has 67 points in the last five games along with his trademark defense and good passing. The first game against Texas was a disaster for the entire Oklahoma squad and Goldwire was no exception. However, the team has played better in Norman this year and almost ousted Kansas in the Phog over the weekend. The Sooners are playing well. It's not a coincidence that it is happening during Goldwire's best stretch of the season.
Landers Nolley, Memphis ($4,700)
Memphis put Nolley back in the starting five for the first time in the 2022 calendar year and he responded with 31 DraftKings points in the upset win over the Cougars. We have to think that this change will stick. If Nolley is back on the bench, there are several places you can go at this price instead, especially if TyTy Washington is out for Kentucky. If Nolley starts again, he'll be in every lineup for me.
Also consider: Alondes Williams, Wake Forest ($9,600); Johnny Davis, Wisconsin ($8,200); David DeJulius, Cincinnati ($7,100); Tyrese Hunter, Iowa State ($6,300); Zakai Zeigler, Tennessee ($6,100); Lester Quinones, Memphis ($5,200); Andrew Jones, Texas ($4,700)

DraftKings CBB DFS Forwards
Early Slate:
Oscar Tshiebwe, Kentucky ($9,800)
Fade him at your own risk. Tshiebwe has at least a dozen rebounds in every game since the restart. He has posted seven consecutive double-doubles with at least 40 DraftKings points in all of those. He has nine games of more than 50 DraftKings points this year, topping 60 for the first time against Florida on Saturday. Tshiebwe had one of his worst games of the campaign against the Vols on January 15, scoring just 29 DraftKings points. However, he still nabbed a dozen rebounds and I fully expect him to take more than eight shots tonight.
Jaylin Williams, Arkansas ($8,000)
I mentioned Arkansas' obliteration of Missouri earlier this season, but Williams still racked up a staggering 35 DraftKings points in just 25 minutes in that game. Once again, he has the highest ceiling on the team. Missouri has no answer for Williams, and if they manage to hang around at home, Williams might post a score near what Tshiebwe does. That's a big if though. The more likely scenario is that Williams hits the mid-30's again, but I wont complain about that.
Henry Coleman, Texas A&M ($6,500)
It has been a rough stretch for the Aggies. They haven't won in a month, but you can't blame Coleman for that. He is averaging 29.7 DraftKings points per game over the last five, a stretch that included games against Auburn, LSU, and Tennessee. Florida is a tougher matchup, but Coleman is carrying the Aggies on his back right now. He should still have a strong game in a losing effort.
John Butler, Florida State ($5,200)
A lot of minutes have opened up for Butler in the Florida State frontcourt with Malik Osborne and Naheem McLeod sidelined. The first three games went well enough, but a hurt ankle limited him to eight minutes against Wake and he fouled out against Pitt earlier this week. A strong game in a blowout loss to North Carolina has me staying on the Butler bandwagon. If he can put up 24.25 DraftKings points against the Tarheels, he should come close to that against Clemson.
Jordan Wright, Vanderbilt ($6,600)
Wright has emerged as quite the Robin to Pippen's Batman at a fraction of the price. He has at least 25 DraftKings points in four straight games thanks to flirting with a double-double every game. His ceiling isn't all that high, but if he can put up around the 31.25 DraftKings points that he posted in the first meeting with Tennessee, that's a good return for this price.
Eddie Lampkin, TCU ($4,300)
This is the free space tonight. Lampkin has at least 22 DraftKings points in four straight games since joining the starting lineup. He's not a prolific scorer, but he is a strong rebounder and is always in contention for a double-double. Who cares what the ceiling is? His floor is at least 5x value, which is unheard of in the college game.
Also consider: Paolo Banchero, Duke ($9,200); Colin Castleton, Florida ($8,400); PJ Hall, Clemson ($7,900); Jalen Duren, Memphis ($7,200); Steven Crowl, Wisconsin ($5,500); Christian Bishop, Texas ($5,000); Trevon Brazile, Missouri
