Texas Tech Red Raiders DFS Spin
De’Vion Harmon notched 23 points (9-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-7 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 43 minutes during Saturday’s 68-63 OT loss to Oklahoma. Harmon stepped up with starting point guard Richard Isaacs (concussion) sitting out versus Oklahoma. The starting guard logged a season high in made field goals during this extended outing. This helped make up star forward Kevin Obanor’s paltry 5-of-17 shooting performance with the Red Raiders’ third-leading scorer and center Daniel Batcho (finger) also sidelined Saturday. Harmon has now hit 46.9 percent of his 9.7 field-goal attempts per game this season, and he’s averaging his highest points per game (12.4) since the 2020-21 campaign with Oklahoma.
Iowa State Cyclones DFS Spin
Jaren Holmes provided 10 points (5-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Wednesday’s 63-60 victory over Oklahoma. Holmes put up another inefficient shooting performance following his 3-for-11 outing versus Baylor on Saturday. The 6-foot-4 senior has scored double-digit points in all but two games this season, though that’s primarily due to his high volume of attempts (12.8). Holmes has shot 37.7 percent from the field over his first 13 games with Iowa State, and it may continue to need time to get his feet under him after spending the first three seasons of his career at mid-major St. Bonaventure.
