Happy Wednesday, all! We might have a two-week break from NFL action, but if you’re looking for some sports to watch in the meantime, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve got you covered with Underdog player props from an awesome college basketball contest this evening between No. 10 Houston and TCU, who might be unranked, but they’re a tough out for any opponent.
The Cougars are 8.5-point favorites, which is significant, but not insurmountable, especially in college basketball. With that in mind, let’s get into our top picks from this game!
Brock Harding OVER 7.5 Rebounds & Assists
Brock Harding’s name is never going to be brought up as one of TCU’s best scorers. He averages just 8.8 points per game, so he’s not a prolific scoring threat by any means. It’s a different story when you talk about his rebound and assist numbers, however, as he provides a lot of value in these two areas.
He’s had 8+ combined rebounds and assists in five straight home games, and we like his odds of bringing that streak to six games tonight. This will be a tough matchup for TCU, so they’ll need all the help they can get on the glass to give themselves the best possible chance.
Liutauras Lelevicius UNDER 1.5 Turnovers
As we mentioned, this is going to be a difficult matchup for TCU, and another key to winning this game will be to limit turnovers. Thankfully, they have Liutauras Lelevicuis on their side, who limits mistakes, which is crucial in beating a team like Houston.
He’s had fewer than two turnovers in eight straight games, and we expect this trend to continue tonight, hopefully being a good example of his teammates of what it looks like to hold onto the ball.
Joseph Tugler UNDER 1.5 Assists
Joseph Tugler has been a solid role-player for the Cougars all season and has played exceptionally well over the past two months. While he’s a big threat as a scorer and rebounder, he doesn’t bring much to the table as a passer, having less than two assists in 11 of his past 12 games.
We think he’s going to leave the important passing to his teammates in this one and are confident he’ll go under this mark again tonight.
