March Madness DFS Props for PrizePicks
Chet Holmgren Over 38.5 Fantasy Score. March Madness has some bite here. While Gonzaga has not covered in either matchup, that is not necessarily the fault of Chet Holmgren. There is reason to believe his three-point shooting slump is bound to end. He is still around 40% at that distance on the season. Also, a double-double feels incredibly inevitable. Add in the fact that Holmgren has 11 blocked shots in his past two games and Holmgren becomes a little more palatable of a choice here for this round. Take the over as the Gonzaga freshman asserts himself.
Hunter Dickinson over 38.5 Fantasy Score. The risk with trying this choice is it may become too chic. Ah, screw it! The Michigan center is going up against a Villanova team that sometimes plays like a paper tiger. Dickinson also figured out getting to the foul line was a good idea in his first two tournament games (15 in all). Those are free points that only boost the bottom line. It also helps his point and free-throw props as well in this matchup. Offensively Dickinson's rating is above 120 on the season and he has been an increasing threat. His 48 points so far this tournament are far from a fluke. A 20-10-3 line is not too far off when it comes to projections. Toss in a few blocked shots and that should get Dickinson OVER the line.
Armando Bacot over 38.5 Fantasy Score. This may self destruct in our faces. The power forward is even an offensive rebounding machine with four or more in his last three games. He cleans the glass like few players in the ACC or country can. Now, the good news is did Baylor stumble on to something? During the second half, they hacked Armando Bacot. He had 15 attempts from the foul line. It rattled him a bit as he only made seven. Normally, he shoots 68.5% from the charity stripe. So, expect a few more cheap points there. Combine that with double-double potential, the over is more likely even against an athletic UCLA team.
Jaden Ivey over 1.5 3-pointers made. The overthinking special is here. Ivey against the Cinderella St. Peter's feels like a trap. However, Ivey shoots a solid 36.4% from beyond the arc. He has four or more attempts in 12 of his last 15 games. The perimeter shot expects to be more open with St. Peter's trying to figure out how to stop 7-foot-4 center Zach Edey. The Peacocks are undersized. Let's be honest. This could become a game where both players play pitch and catch. Those results should tilt this toward the over.
Christian Koloko push 3.0 free throws made. This could be a head-scratcher as well. Christian Koloko is a 73.4% free-throw shooter. He has only improved each season at Arizona. However, does he get the chances? The good news is the pivot typically does not get in foul trouble. However, in three of the past four games he had four or less opportunities from the charity stripe. That 3.0 number feels more and more like a push in this matchup. A push and/or under is our pick here.
Some others to eye up:
One of the more fun matchups on Thursday features the aforementioned Zach Edey. There are several props to look at. The best choice may be rebounds. That number is just 9.0. Again, he can box out speedy players from St. Peter's. Double digit rebounds feels almost inevitable along with more than 12.5 points. A 15-10 night is easy to see and even that estimate may be low here.
Finally, Christian Braun has a block and steals prop of just 1.5. The idea would be to take the Kansas center and opt for the over against Providence. It is risky but this prop has hit four times in the past six games.
