Providence Friars DFS Spin
Jared Bynum produced nine points (2-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and 10 assists in 35 minutes during Saturday’s 73-68 loss to St. John’s. Bynum missed four games in January with an abdominal injury, and coach Ed Cooley has been conservative with his usage since his return. Saturday marked his first start since Jan. 4, and while the senior had a rough shooting day, he did record a season-high 10 assists. Bynum leads the Friars with 4.6 assists per contest, which currently represents the strongest mark of his four-year collegiate career.
UConn Huskies DFS Spin
Adama Sanogo totaled eight points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two blocks in 24 minutes during Saturday’s 64-55 victory over Seton Hall. Sanogo suited up for his usual role in Connecticut’s starting lineup despite recently dealing with a non-COVID illness. While he only played less than three fewer minutes than his season average (26.6), the Huskies’ leading scorer failed to record double-digit points for just the third time this season. Sanogo has now averaged 16.9 points and 7.3 rebounds across 27 starts this season. His next game will come Wednesday versus Providence.
