Look of the Day for Tuesday, March 19: This one screams Under
Austin Reaves was averaging 7.1 three-point attempts over his last seven games, so of course he puts up only three when we bet his over against a terrible defensive team. Oh well, bad read. Let's bounce back with a college basketball pick to kick off the NCAA Tournament play-in slate.
Look of the Day: Wagner Seahawks vs. Howard Bison under 129 (-110 DraftKings)
Tuesday, March 19, 6:40 p.m. ET, truTV
If you haven't watched Wagner play basketball this season, consider yourself lucky. The Seahawks are one of the slowest, most inept offensive teams in the country. They won the Northeast Conference by limiting possessions and mucking up every game, and that's what they'll attempt to do against Howard in the play-in.
Wagner ranks 361st out of 362 Division I teams in KenPom's adjusted tempo. It also ranks 357th in points per game, 353rd in effective field-goal percentage and 291st in three-point percentage. Because their pace is so slow, the Seahawks give up only 63 points per game.
Howard's best offense is its three-point shooting, but Wagner ranks 11th in the country in opponent three-point percentage. The Seahawks have held their last four opponents to 57 points or fewer, and that's their only avenue to success in this game.
