Daily Fantasy College Basketball 2015: DraftKings Bargain Picks for Jan. 24
With so many games to choose from, Saturdays are the best for daily fantasy college basketball. DraftKings provides two sets of contests, ones that start at noon (ET) and others at 6 p.m. for those who like to sleep in on the weekends.
No matter which contest you enter, here is a look at the best bargains to choose from throughout the country.

Report: Biggest Spenders in Men's CBB 🤑

Although he isn't a household name, Jaron Blossomgame has turned into a double-double machine for Clemson. You can say his game has really...blossomed (sorry).
The forward is averaging 13.6 points and 8.4 rebounds, numbers that should improve against the defensively inept Wake Forest. The Demon Deacons rank 28th in the nation in tempo and are 302nd at defending two-point baskets, according to KenPom.com.
What this means is that there will be a lot of possessions and easy looks right at the basket. North Carolina's Kennedy Meeks and Brice Johnson combined for 35 points and 14 rebounds against Wake Forest last game, giving Blossomgame a potential for huge numbers.
| UNC (Jan. 21) | Kennedy Meeks | 16 | 8 |
| UNC (Jan. 21) | Brice Johnson | 19 | 6 |
| SYR (Jan. 13) | Rakeem Christmas | 35 | 9 |
| SYR (Jan. 13) | Michael Gbinije | 17 | 11 |
| GT (Jan. 10) | Demarco Cox | 14 | 7 |
| DUKE (Jan. 7) | Justise Winslow | 20 | 7 |
| LOU (Jan. 4) | Montrezl Harrell | 25 | 13 |
Naz Long, Iowa State ($5,500)
Every game in the Big 12 will be difficult, but Iowa State is on a solid run thanks to the play of guard Naz Long. The junior is averaging 16.3 points with 10 made three-pointers in the past three games, numbers that will really help you out at the price.
On a team that can light up the scoreboard against any opponent, Long is a good bet to get involved in a big way.
Bronson Koenig, Wisconsin ($5,300)

Wisconsin's offense has become a well-oiled machine as evident by the 82-50 win over Iowa that featured just a single team turnover. Amazingly, this is without starting point guard Traevon Jackson, who is out with a foot injury.
Bronson Koenig has slid into the starting lineup and the offense hasn't missed a beat. The guard is even finding ways to score on his own, averaging 12 points over the last three games while going 8-of-14 from behind the arc. This is a major improvement from the 4.4 points per game he was averaging before this point.
Even in what will likely be a low-scoring game, Koenig can give you value with another solid game.
Brandon Ashley, Arizona ($5,200)
The problem with drafting players on Arizona is you never know where the scoring will come from on a given night. The team has six players capable leading the team in scoring with only Stanley Johnson considered a consistent threat.
However, Brandon Ashley has been playing extremely well lately with 31 points and 11 rebounds in the last two games combined. This should be able to continue against California, a team that is reeling with seven losses in the past eight games.
The Golden Bears lack size inside and should give up plenty of second-chance points to Ashley and company.
Montaque Gill-Caesar, Missouri ($4,600)

This is a very risky play but if you're starting to run out of money and want to save some on a high-upside player, look no further than Montaque Gill-Caesar.
The freshman guard scored at least 15 points in half of his first 12 games this year, but a back injury kept him out of the lineup for a few weeks. He returned to action last Saturday with a minimal impact before playing 23 minutes against Texas A&M on Wednesday.
Now that he is close to 100 percent, Missouri will need him to step up against a quality opponent in Arkansas. The Razorbacks use a fast-paced attack to help dominate with offense, but they aren't always great defensively, especially on the perimeter.
If Gill-Caesar plays to his potential, he could put up some huge numbers.
