Top TBT Betting Odds & Pick for Friday: Red Scare vs. Best Virginia

Red Scare vs. Best Virginia

The Red Scare has just been hanging around in the tournament. They don’t do anything exceptionally well and are quite average as a team. They’re coming off a big win over The Money Team but snuck by with an 83-81 victory.  With that win, they’ve now averaged 73.3 points per game while holding opponents to 69 points per game. The Red Scare has been great defensively but weren’t nearly as good in their last game.

Jordan Sibert has led the team in scoring 13.7 points per game, but only two other players average more than eight points.

The Gutter Cat Gang has scored 74 points per game after winning three straight games in the tournament. Opponents have added just 64 points per game against them.

Meanwhile, Best Virginia has been even better defensively, holding teams to 62 points per game this season. Best Virginia just defeated the Bucketneers, 63-62, in a low-scoring affair. Kevin Jones has led the team in scoring with 15 points per game, and three other players have averaged double-figures along with him.

Currently, Best Virginia has done better on the glass while also getting more bench points. Red Scare will want to get going on the fast break against Best Virginia because it will be hard to score in the halfcourt against them, and I’m not so sure they’ll be able to dominate in the fastbreak in this one.

Therefore, I’m riding Best Virginia to take care of business in this game.

Bet: Best Virginia (-125 at DraftKings)
