Virginia Cavaliers DFS Spin
Kadin Shedrick amassed 16 points (7-8 FG, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 29 minutes during Saturday’s 69-61 loss to Houston. Shedrick missed only shot from the field Saturday, and while he delivered an impressive performance, he just couldn’t carry the Cavaliers to victory in this one. At the very least, this was a bounce-back performance for the big man, as he was coming off scoring five combined points over his previous two starts. He’s averaging 9.9 points and 4.6 rebounds per game in 2022-23.
Miami Hurricanes DFS Spin
Nijel Pack (illness) was spotted at practice on Monday, Luke Chaney of All Hurricane reports. Pack did not play in Saturday’s contest against St. Francis due to an illness. It appears the Kansas State transfer should have a decent chance to suit up in Tuesday’s game against Virginia. Pack is averaging 11.3 points, 3.0 assists, and 1.7 three-pointers this season, but has not broken double digits scoring since Nov. 27 against UCF.
