Friday night’s plays helped us hook the books. We got Adama-Alpha Bal higher than 16.5 points. He ended with 17. We got Tamar Bates lower than 6.5 rebounds and Assists. He ended with six. Finally, we got Braden Smith lower than 13.5 points. He ended with 11. Two out of three hooks ain’t bad, but three cashes got us a 6X payout. Saturday has a nice, big slate of games to pick from and we’ve got three plays to build an Underdog Fantasy college basketball entry for November 9.
Keep in mind that playing all three legs of our plays in Underdog Fantasy could win you 6X your money on a single entry.
Underdog Fantasy College Basketball Picks November 9
Matthew Dewoskin Underdog Fantasy College Basketball Pick Em Record (Est 11/4/2024)
All Pick Em Selections: 8-4-0
Spicy Multiplier Picks: 0-0
Perfect 3-0 Pick Em Entries: 2-2
Milos Uzan Higher Than 4.5 Assists
Houston point guard Milos Uzan went off for 10 assists against Jackson State in the Cougars’ season opener. He gets Auburn and their typically tough defense on Saturday night, but the Tigers just got done beating each other up on a flight to Houston.
Uzan averaged 4.4 assists per game last year with Oklahoma, but it’s clear that he was brought to Houston to run the offense and set up his teammates. Look for Houston to roll the brawling Tigers, and Uzan should clear 4.5 assists with ease. Make sure Uzan is a part of your Underdog Fantasy college basketball entry for November 9th.
Posh Alexander Higher Than 3.5 Assists
Square number alert! Posh Alexander averaged 4.9 assists per game with Butler last year. In his first game with Dayton, Alexander dished out five assists. Why is this number only 3.5 assists?
When Alexander is matched up against the Northwestern defense, he’ll get freshman point guard K.J. Windham. The senior Alexander should eat against the freshman, and Posh has a low assists total. He’ll clear 3.5 assists easily.
D.J. Wagner Higher Than 2.5 Turnovers
Arkansas heads to Dallas to play Baylor on Saturday night. Razorbacks point guard D.J. Wagner is coming off a game against Lipscomb in which he handed over three turnovers. His higher/lower number for Saturday’s match up? 2.5 turnovers.
Baylor’s defense features much better athletes than Lipscomb, and Wagner is still growing into the role of starting point guard for the Razorbacks. Wagner should log at least 30 minutes against Baylor, and he’s already shown that he can be a bit sloppy with the ball. Wagner should hand the ball back to the Bears at least three times, and end up higher than the 2.5 turnovers listed.
