Trey Kaufman-Renn Higher Than 7.5 Rebounds+Assists

Nebraska visits Mackey Arena for a match up with Purdue today. The Cornhuskers enter this game allowing opponents to average 33.9 rebounds per game. That’s 135th in the nation. Nebraska does a better job of limiting assists by opponents. They only allow 12.1 assists per game.

In Mackey Arena, Kaufman-Renn averages 6.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game. He’s also gone higher than 7.5 rebounds and assists in nine out of 16 games this year.

Purdue tends to play better at home, and that usually means more opportunities for assists and boards. Look for Kaufman-Renn to fill up the stat sheet in today’s match up. He should go higher than 7.5 rebounds and assists in your Underdog Fantasy college basketball entry for January 12th.

Danny Wolf Higher Than 9.5 Rebounds

Washington visits Ann Arbor for a game against Michigan today. The Huskies come into this match up allowing opponents to average 35.3 rebounds against this season. Danny Wolf! Come on down!

Michigan forward Danny Wolf comes into this one averaging 10.2 rebounds per game. However, when he plays at home, his average goes up to 11.6 rebounds per game. Wolf has also gone higher than 9.5 rebounds in nine out of 15 games played this year.

Yaxel Lendeborg Higher Than 10.5 Rebounds

We’ve got an ‘old friend’ alert! UAB big man Yaxel Lendeborg makes his first appearance in this space for the 2024-25 season. He was a staple last year as he grabbed rebounds like TCE hosts grab cocktails.

Lendeborg enters today’s match up with FAU averaging 10.1 rebounds per game. However, he’s gone higher than 10.5 in four straight games and six of his last seven played.

FAU allows opponents to average 38.6 rebounds per game this year. That’s 327th in the nation. Lendeborg should be able to get what he wants against a soft FAU Owls interior defense. Look for Yaxel to go higher than 10.5 rebounds in your Underdog Fantasy college basketball entry for January 12th.
