OVER 7 Rebounds
The steady rise and improvement of Race Thompson has been one of the best storylines for Indiana basketball over the last four seasons. He grew from a role player in his first two seasons to an indispensable piece for the Hoosiers over the last two years. He is now having his best season in an IU uniform, averaging 11.8 points and 7.7 rebounds in the regular season.
Today, he faces Wyoming in the First Six play-in and should take advantage of their poor 25.6% offensive rebounding rate (263rd in the country). Thompson comes into tonight’s game with a 21.8 defensive rebounding and 8.1% offensive rebounding rate and is in a great position to hit the over on the seven-rebound prop.
OVER 26.2 Fantasy Score
Texas A&M is projected to score 80 points tonight against an Alcorn State defense that is carrying a 105.7 adjusted defensive efficiency rate (232nd) into the game. Alcorn State also has less than average rates in turnover % (20.3- 292nd), three-point percentage allowed (34.8- 245th), and offensive steal rate allowed (9.9- 244th).
This puts Quenton Jackson, who dominated opposing defenses in the SEC Tournament, firmly in a smash spot tonight. He leads the team in points, steals, and is second in shots taken beyond the arc. With a 20.8-point average and 27.73% usage rate over his last five, take the over on fantasy points and regular points (14.5) for Jackson.
