Harvard Crimson DFS Spin
Gradley Dick supplied 20 points (8-12 FG, 4-5 3Pt), six rebounds, one block and five steals in 33 minutes during Saturday’s 84-62 win over Indiana. Dick put together his best all-around shooting performance since the season opener against Omaha, including a season high in three-point shooting percentage. The 6-foot-8 freshman also notched more than three steals for the first time in his young career. Dick has been one of the Big 12’s best three-point shooters since arriving on the scene this season, converting 49.2 percent of his 5.7 attempts from beyond the arc. He should continue to vie with Baylor’s Adam Flagler and Oklahoma’s Grant Sherfield as three of the best three-point specialists in the conference.
Kansas Jayhawks DFS Spin
Dajuan Harris logged 10 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, 10 assists and three steals over 28 minutes during Saturday’s 84-62 win over Indiana. Harris once again stepped up on the biggest stage, as he matched his previous season high for assists from the Jayhawks’ five-point win over Duke on Nov. 15. The junior point guard also continued to be a bother on the defensive end, notching at least three steals for the sixth time in 11 games. Harris doesn’t get many scoring opportunities – 6.3 field-goal attempts per game – in Kansas’ forward-heavy starting lineup. But, he’s been one of the nation’s best field generals with 6.8 assists to just 2.0 turnovers per contest, and his solid 52.2 field-goal shooting percentage makes him one of the most efficient players in the Big 12.
