Daily Fantasy College Basketball 2015: DraftKings Lineup Advice for Feb. 23

On the heels of a wild rivalry week in college basketball, Monday's slate of games offers little room for overanalyzing a lineup. With that said, it won't keep DraftKings owners from doing just that—which is why we're here to help. Here's a look at one ideal lineup and advice for Monday's games.

Position	Player	Upcoming Opponent	Salary
G	Frank Mason III	@ Kansas State	$7,000
G	Phil Greene IV	Xavier	$6,500
G	Wayne Blackshear	@ Georgia Tech	$4,800
F	Perry Ellis	@ Kansas State	$7,700
F	Marcus Georges-Hunt	Lousville	$6,900
F	Matt Stainbrook	@ St. John's	$6,300
UTIL	Myles Davis	@ St. John's	$5,900
UTIL	Kelly Oubre Jr.	@ Kansas State	$4,700

G Phil Greene, St. John's ($6,500)

St. John's basketball is back on track after winning five of its last seven games. One huge facet of getting the Red Storm back to .500 in the Big East has been the great recent play of Phil Greene.

Over his last four games, Greene has averaged 17.8 points, 2.5 assists and two rebounds per game. That's good enough for 25.5 fantasy points per game in DraftKings, over five points more than he has averaged all season.

He won't provide the same output as D'Angelo Harrison, but Greene also comes at $2,600 less than his teammate. Going up against an Xavier defense that ranks 217th in the country in points allowed (67.8 per game), Greene will shine again.

On the opposite side of Greene will be Myles Davis, who has put up similar numbers recently. Shooting 53.8 percent from three-point range in his last three games, he can also provide extra points for DraftKings owners.

Davis going 3-of-6 from behind the arc helped owners total a crucial extra 1.5 points during his last game. At such a reasonable price, expect Davis to tally another strong night at the third guard spot.

F Perry Ellis, Kansas ($7,700)

If you're going to pay big money for a forward, he better be worth the price. Perry Ellis, my friends, is worth every penny, particularly in DraftKings leagues.

He doesn't register blocks like Montrezl Harrell, but that doesn't matter in DraftKings. Ellis' average of 20 points and six rebounds over the last three games? Yeah, those certainly matter.

Ellis also has six double-doubles this season for those hoping to get a bonus on Monday night. Oh, then there's the simple fact that he threw down 16 points and 12 rebounds for 37 fantasy points the last time Kansas played Kansas State. Needless to say, Ellis should be a lock at the top of every lineup.

F Marcus Georges-Hunt, Georgia Tech ($6,900)

Georgia Tech is not a very good team, and it's unlikely that Louisville will struggle at all. However, Marcus Georges-Hunt is one player inside who can make a difference for the Yellow Jackets.

He hasn't posted a single double-double this season, but Georges-Hunt finds unique ways to score. Producing 24 fantasy points at home, look for the Georgia Tech big man to go toe to toe with Harrell and put up solid production.

UTIL Wayne Blackshear, Louisville ($4,800)

The senior season for Wayne Blackshear has been an unpredictable one, but it's about to get more interesting. Following the official dismissal of Chris Jones, via Sports Illustrated, Louisville will need more production from all of its guards.

Blackshear was one player who had several solid games in the absence of Jones before Saturday. After putting up 17.3 fantasy points against Miami, Blackshear should be started at a utility spot. After all, he is going against a Georgia Tech team that allowed 89 points against North Carolina.
