My Picks for the ACC/SEC Basketball Challenge
Santiago Vescovi, Tennessee: Higher than 17.5 points+rebounds+assists
Vescovi has been around the Tennessee program for years now. He’s played in a lot of crazy environments and difficult road arenas. He won’t be fazed by the North Carolina crowd on Wednesday night. Thus, his 17.5 points+rebounds+assists total seems a little bit low to me. I like him for around 20 tonight.
Armando Bacot, North Carolina: Higher than 25.5 points+rebounds+assists
Tennessee will do a good job of limiting North Carolina’s wings and guards with its stifling defense, but Bacot should have some room to operate down low. He won’t have one of his most dominant efforts, but a 16-point, 10-rebound double-double seems like a plausible outcome tonight, win or lose.
Wade Taylor IV, Texas A&M: Lower than 24.5 points+rebounds+assists
I love watching Wade Taylor IV play, but this game is at Virginia, and the Cavaliers will slow everything down to a crawl. Even if the Aggies win and Taylor has a strong performance, I expect him to finish a bit short of 25 points+rebounds+assists against Tony Bennett’s slow-paced crew.
Riley Kugel, Florida: Higher than 18.5 points+rebounds+assists
Kugel is 1 of 4 Gators currently averaging 14+ points on the season. I expect him to score 14 or so points at Wake Forest tonight, which means he’ll only need to combine for 5 rebounds+assists to hit his number. That seems very doable for the talented Florida guard.
