Glean insight from one of the game’s best, Varncass, as he lists picks he’ll actually be targeting in his tournament games below, along with detailed analysis and reasoning.

Wednesday, December 10th

I love what DraftKings has done with this slate today, and it looks to me like DraftKings is going to be the premier place to play CBB until the conference season starts up. There are plenty of games on the docket today, and the pricing has been altered slightly. Once again, not all of the teams included have players in the player pool, so we will go with the picks format today.

Guards

Melo Trimble – Since Dez Wells broke his wrist, the Maryland offense has been placed into the capable hands of Melo Trimble. The freshman has had to grow up quickly, but has done so with 36, 28, 20, and 33 fantasy points in the last 4. His usage rate has spiked to almost 30% and he is involved in almost ever single play. I do not like the matchup with NC Central who is slow, however Maryland should be OK in this game and Trimble should find the scoreboard a lot while playing almost all of the minutes.

Kevin Pangos – Gonzaga has a dream matchup here against Washington State, who is playing extremely fast this year. Gonzaga should blow the doors off of a terrible Wazzu team and may end up scoring 90 in this one. Pangos will get his assists as the Washington State defense is swiss cheese and he will find the open Karnowski, Wiltjer, and slashing Wesley for buckets often, while hopefully draining a few threes. Sitting at 6,500, he only needs 26 points to make value and I think he hits that number 75% of the time tonight.

D’Vauntes Smith-RiveraDSR is too cheap as well tonight at 7,300. He has had some duds, but he is going to need to step up tonight against Kansas. He will most likely match up with Frank Mason, who will not be able to defend him. Smith-Rivera has 40 point upside when playing his game and I think he will have an extremely high usage rate tonight as Thompson tries to get his best playmaker involved.
