Texas Tech Red Raiders DFS Spin
Daniel Batcho ended with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, one assist and three blocks across 32 minutes during Tuesday’s 84-50 loss to Iowa State. Batcho struggled to contribute for Texas Tech, logging just four points, three rebounds, and three blocks during Tuesday’s loss to Iowa State. The 6-foot-11 sophomore has started in 12 games this season, logging 11.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 2.1 blocks on 27.4 minutes per game. Batcho, who has averaged just four points and six rebounds across his last three appearances, will look to get back on track against Texas on Saturday.
Texas Longhorns DFS Spin
Timmy Allen ended with 11 points (3-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and three steals over 30 minutes during Saturday’s 56-46 win over Oklahoma State. Allen logged double-digit points for the sixth time in the last seven games, as he got the charity stripe for a season high in free-throw attempts. The senior forward also posted his most steals in a game this season during this defensive showdown. Through 15 games, Allen has played a career-low 25.7 minutes per game while sharing the frontcourt with senior center Dylan Disu (16.4) and ascending true freshman Dillon Mitchell (22.0). However, Allen’s still first among this trio in points per game (10.1), and he should continue to serve as the Longhorns’ third-leading scorer behind trio Marcus Carr (17.7) and Tyrese Hunter (11.6).
