College Basketball Daily Fantasy Sports Picks - Saturday, February 28th

Welcome to the last Saturday before March Madness! Only one more regular season Saturday remains. ESPN goes for a College Gameday double header in the Sunflower State. Two big conference battles will be highlighted as the Wichita St. Shockers will host the surprisingly impressive Northern Iowa Panthers with the Missouri Valley tile on the line. It's safe to say the Shockers will be "up" for this one:


Later in the day, the Jayhawks will host the Longhorns of Texas in a pivotal Big 12 battle. Kansas leads 3 other teams by 1 game with 3 games to play. Reece Davis, you are in Kansas!

Saturday's Daily Fantasy Sports Picks

F Ricardo Gathers $8,800 WSTVA@BAYLR

Rico only went for 41.4 fantasy points against West Virginia in their last matchup. Pretty subpar compared to his lofty standards! Count on Gathers to meet or exceed this lofty number at home by taking advantage of some easy buckets & rebounds against the Mountaineer’s hectic press.

F Jarell Martin $8,800 MISSP@LSU

Mickey’s partner in crime, Martin has been a fantasy stud this year. Has averaged over 46 fantasy points in his last two games. Anywhere close to 40 fantasy points will make this pick worthwhile.

F Perry Ellis $8,400 TEX@KANS

Mr. Kansas Basketball has been Kansas’ sole inside scoring threat as of late. He’s heating up at the right time. He’ll be up against a tough Longhorn frontcourt. Ellis was able to manage 28.5 fantasy points in Austin. Peg him for at least that amount in the friendly confines of Allen Fieldhouse.

F Taurean Waller-Prince $7,900 WSTVA@BAYLR

Kansas fans’ favorite Baylor Bear ignited the Bear’s late surge to upend the Cyclones in Ames. With a 24.7 fppg average and 25 fantasy points last time versus West Virginia, Waller-Prince should have a good shot at exceeding that mark at home. He can score in all sorts of ways:

F Johnathan Motley $4,600 WSTVA@BAYLR

Averaging 16.5 fppg, Motley exceeded that with a 20.1 fantasy point effort last time versus the Mountaineers in Morgantown. Here’s worth a shot at repeating that performance for $4,600.

G Isaiah Cousins $6,500 TCU@OKLA

Great complement to Buddy Hield. As Hield gets most of the attention, Cousins is free to make the most of his scoring ability. Dropped 26.2 fantasy points against TCU the first time these teams met up.

G Ryan Arcidiacono $5,300 VLLNV@XAV

Toughest player on the East Coast (or at least most beat up!). Don’t let his fun name fool you, Mr. Archie will be around 20 fantasy points in this one.

G Lester Medford $4,900 WSTVA@BAYLR

A very capable scorer who’s been over 20 fantasy points his last 2 games. Bears playing well of late and Medford has been a key ingredient in the successful formula.

G Brannen Greene $4,800 TEX@KANS

Been in a shooting funk the last few games. He’s normally hot at home and lit up the Longhorns last time out.

Bonus Pick:

G Jevon Carter $4,500 WSTVA@BAYLR

Went for 20.2 fantasy points last time out versus Baylor. Consistently scores in the mid teens. Good potential if you’re scratching for a $4,500 player.
