Thursday's college basketball features teams and conference tournaments well underway. Below I've outlined two player props and fantasy picks for March 13 featuring bets for Cooper Flagg, Kam Jones and others. All odds courtesy of Sportsbook.
Jordan Longino UNDER 1.5 Assists (-110 at Sportsbook)
Longino may have exceeded 1.5 assists in his last five consecutive outings, but that streak would've been extended had it not been for his meeting with UConn in mid-February. Going up against them twice this season, the senior has grown familiar with the Huskies. So, he's aware that this is the 10th best defense when it comes to assists allowed. UConn gives up just 10.2 assists per game, which explains why Longino has only recorded one in each of his two games vs the Huskies this season.
Baye Ndongo UNDER 22.5 Points+Rebounds (-120 at Sportsbook)
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are about to be seriously outmatched in the third round of the ACC Tournament as they're set to meet Duke. The two met a few days before Christmas with the Blue Devils cruising to the commanding 82-56 victory. Ndongo recorded 14 points and four rebounds in the loss.
There's an ACC Championship on the line and Duke is eager to prove its reputation of being a March Madness threat isn't exaggerated. Jon Scheyer is leading the top team at KenPom, with the fourth-best defensive rating. Ndongo and his crew are going to be suffocated and this line is just too big for me.
Cooper Flagg O20.5 Pts and Kam Jones O6.5 Asts at Sportsbook +300
Flagg has been pretty mild in the points department, averaging 18.2 PPG, which is a bit inflated with one 28-point night. But, my gut tells me the Wooden Award contender is saving his energy for when it matters most—which I would argue is this ACC Tournament and leading in the Big Dance. The freshman has dropped 21-points or more 13 times this season and I'm calling an elite performance for his first conference tournament appearance.
Kam Jones is averaging 6.1 assists across the year, the 18th-best mark in the nation. The senior has recorded 7.2 assists in his last five matchups and posted eight assists in his single performance against Xavier this season.
Oh, that's not all we got for you today. Mitch Bannon has thrown out his back digging up player and team trends for tonight's slate. He's even thrown in a pick for you to tail, too!
UNC’s RJ Davis O2.5 3PM (-125 at Sportsbook)
This Tar Heel guard has made at least three 3PM in each of his last five games, shooting 16 for 30 from deep in that stretch.
Davis gets the play a Wake Forest team today that can’t stop the deep shot. They allow 8.1 threes per game (246th in the nation) and have let up 7.3 in their last three contests. Against WF earlier this year, Davis dropped 21 points and went 3/9 from deep, hitting this OVER.
