Marquette Golden Eagles DFS Spin
David Joplin notched nine points (4-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 17 minutes during Wednesday’s 69-68 win over Xavier. Joplin fell in-line with his season averages of 9.8 points, 3.4 rebounds and 0.7 assists per game. He’s been amid a slight cold spell from beyond the arc, connecting on just 4-of-19 three-point tries over his last four games
Creighton Bluejays DFS Spin
Francisco Farabello (illness) produced three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and two rebounds across six minutes during Saturday’s 77-67 win over St. John’s. Farabello had been sidelined for the previous three games due to illness but was able to return for Saturday’s road matchup. The senior transfer from TCU should be available to provide guard depth for the Blue Jays moving forward, though Creighton is typically a team that relies heavily on its starters.
