UCLA Bruins DFS Spin
Dylan Andrews finished Saturday’s 87-64 victory over Denver with 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds and five assists across 21 minutes. Andrews contributed a season-high 11 points during Saturday’s win over Denver. The 6-foot-2 guard has had a modest role with the Bruins this season, primarily serving as a depth piece for UCLA. Andrews has appeared in all 10 games this season, averaging 3.8 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.4 assists on 12.2 minutes per game. The freshman guard has displayed his ability to take on a larger workload in runaway games, but barring injuries to other guards he is likely to remain in a similar role for UCLA this season.
Maryland Terps DFS Spin
Ike Cornish (illness) didn’t appear in Sunday’s loss to Tennessee. Cornish has missed four consecutive games due to an illness, but he wasn’t a significant part of the Terrapins’ rotation prior to his absence. His next chance to take the court will be Wednesday against UCLA.
