Xavier Musketeers DFS Spin
Souley Boum logged 21 points (6-12 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Wednesday’s 82-79 victory over UConn. Boum bounced back for a strong scoring night, including clutch frees to secure the game for Xavier. Across two prior contests, Boum had connected on just 5-of-19 shots, but he turned the page Wednesday. His eruption from deep marked the fifth time this season Boum has hit three-plus triples.
Creighton Bluejays DFS Spin
Arthur Kaluma notched 14 points (4-6 FG, 6-6 FT) and five rebounds across 23 minutes during Wednesday’s 104-76 win over St. John’s. Kaluma had an easy workload as Creighton destroyed St. John’s, but his one-dimensional offensive playstyle is becoming more apparent. Kaluma has combined for just four assists across his last six games.
