We’re getting closer and closer to “One Shining Moment” to play, and to be quite honest, we’re not sure if we’re emotionally ready for this. March Madness has been nothing short of incredible to this point, and we’re excited to see how the last three games shake out on the men’s side.
With that in mind, we’re going to take a look at the two Final Four games, highlighting our two favorite player props from each matchup, which can all be found on Underdog. Let’s get into it!
We’ve taken the over on Zach Edey’s rebounds in every game of the tournament thus far, and even though 14 is a massive number, we’re not shying away from him now. It will be interesting to see how Edey competes with DJ Burns in the post since they are both big in different ways.
This is a matchup we are really looking forward to, and what better way to add to the excitement than taking the over on Edey’s rebounding line?
While we’re excited to see this matchup unfold, it’s unlikely that DJ Burns is going to have a big scoring game with Edey in the post. Burns’ massive performances have come when the opposition hasn’t had someone to match up with him, but Edey presents a tougher test than most.
We anticipate NC State needing their other players to step up in this one, which is why we’re taking the under on Burns’ point total.
If UConn is going to beat Alabama, they’re going to need Tristen Newton to have a big game. Newton has been one of their best players of the Tournament thus far, getting it done in all facets of the game.
We anticipate Newton to be aggressive on the glass early in this one, which is why we’re taking the over on his rebounds total.
We’re not sure why Grant Nelson’s point total is this high. He has only scored more than 10 points in one game throughout the Tournament, a 24-point effort against UNC in the Elite Eight.
With that in mind, we’re taking the under on his 10 points in this game, especially since UConn is a tough matchup for any player. His teammates might have more luck, but Nelson could have a down scoring night.
