Illinois Fighting Illini DFS Spin
Ty Rodgers logged 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal across 25 minutes during Tuesday’s 93-81 loss to Penn State. Rodgers has made no fewer than six rebounds in his last four contests but Tuesday was the first time he scored over 10 points all season. Since he’s already fairly strong on the glass, improving his potential from the floor will be his point of progression in the coming seasons.
Indiana Hoosiers DFS Spin
Race Thompson logged 13 points (4-4 FG, 5-6 FT) and three rebounds in 25 minutes during Wednesday’s 64-62 loss to Northwestern. Thompson scored more than 10 points during two of his six games started across Jan. 25 to Feb. 15. Unfortunately for the senior forward, Indiana lost both team matchups during which he was a double-digit scorer.
