We've reached March, which means March Madness is almost here. Monday's college basketball features top teams like Duke and Houston and plenty of solid options for props.
Below we've got two player props for March 3rd. All odds courtesy of Sportsbook and Sportsbook .
Cooper Flagg OVER 4.5 Assists (+100)
Preview: Wake Forest vs Duke, 7:00 p.m. ET
Duke is winning games so convincingly that Flagg hasn’t played more than 27 minutes in each of his past three outings, which has seriously cut into his scoring opportunities. But the freshman All-American’s assist numbers have kept pace; Flagg has dished out five or more dimes in three of his last five games, and is averaging 4.8 assists per outing at home.
Kon Knueppel UNDER 1.5 turnovers (-159)
Preview: Wake Forest vs Duke, 7:00 p.m. ET
Kon Knueppel protects the ball as well as anyone. Despite playing over 29 minutes per night and averaging 13.5 points per game, Knueppel hasn't turned the ball over more than once in the last eight games. He's gone OVER 1.5 turnovers just six times this season (in 29 total games).
Duke faces a Wake Forest defense that is decently chaotic, forcing over 13 turnovers per game. But, in the last three games that mark has dropped to just 12.0, which would rank 159th in the country for forced turnovers per game. My only concern for this bet is the last time Knueppel faced Wake, he had five turnovers (his most of the season).
