West Virginia Mountaineers DFS Spin
Erik Stevenson supplied three points (1-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and six rebounds in 18 minutes during Saturday’s 94-60 loss to Texas. Stevenson was on one of the hottest streaks of his career with 24.5 points per game over four contests from Jan. 25 to Feb. 4. However, he’s now accumulated just 11 points while shooting 2-of-13 from the field over the past two outings for West Virginia. He’s also played a total of 40 minutes across this pair of games, and he also failed to log an assist for the first time this season Saturday. Stevenson will look to re-ignite his career-best scoring campaign (14.2) when West Virginia heads on the road versus Baylor on Monday.
Baylor Bears DFS Spin
Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua racked up zero points (0-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds and one block over 25 minutes during Saturday’s 72-68 victory over TCU. Tchamwa Tchatchoua logged his most extensive playing time since returning for the last three games after missing the first three months of the season with a knee injury. While the 6-foot-8 senior continued to come off the bench behind starting forwards Jalen Bridges and Flo Thamba, he still logged more rebounds than each of these two Saturday. It’s likely these three will account for the bulk of Baylor’s rebounding production while playing in a de facto rotation while Baylor continues to use a guard-heavy starting lineup.
