Noah Clowney (Alabama) OVER 6.5 Rebounds (-125)
For the early tilt, let's roll with the big freshman from the Crimson Tide. Clowney is 6-10, so he definitely has the height to dominate the glass. He's had an impressive first season with the Tide by averaging nearly 8 rebounds per game.
We found a couple more statistics that support our Over. Clowney has grabbed 7 rebounds or more in 22 of 35 games this season. He's also gone over this total in 6 of his last 9 ball games.
San Diego State has a solid group of players, but they rank just 87th in overall rebounding and 109th in offensive rebounding. That should bode well for Clowney and Bama, who ranks 1st and 11th in those categories, respectively. Take the Over!
Marcus Sasser (Houston) OVER 2.5 Made 3-Pointers (+100)
This play seems square as can be, but we can't turn down the plus-money price on a pure shooter like Sasser. The senior guard has been struggling with a groin injury, but he put all concerns to rest against Auburn by hitting 5 three-pointers! We think Sasser could turn in a similar performance on Friday against Miami.
The Hurricanes are a fun bunch to watch, but they're garbage on the defensive end. Miami ranks 133rd in 3-point defense and 207th in opponent field goal percentage. Sasser shouldn't have any trouble finding open looks from downtown.
Sasser is averaging 2.7 made shots from 3-point land this season. He's also gone over this total in 8 of his last 11 games. Keep in mind that in 2 of those games that stayed under, he only played 14 and 9 minutes because of the groin pull.
Jack Nunge (Xavier) OVER 7.5 Rebounds (-115)
For the nightcap, we're rolling with Xavier's big man Jack Nunge. He's averaging 7.7 rebounds per contest this season, and he should be able to do very well on the glass against Texas. The Longhorns only rank 178th in rebounds, while Xavier ranks a respectable 27th.
Nunge should also have a distinct height advantage in this ball game. This kid is 6-11 and 245 pounds. The tallest player Texas has is Dylan Disu, who is 6-9 and only plays about 18 minutes per game.
Some of DraftKings' competitors have this Over listed in the mid to high -120s, so we're getting a bit of value with the -115 price. Take the Over and look for Nunge to bring down 10 or more rebounds in this one. Best of luck with all of your weekend action!
