Welcome to Brian’s CBB slate breakdown. In this article, I will share a few of my top plays on the slate and discuss who you should target in cash and gpp contests. If you would like to gain access to our CBB core plays, final thoughts, and premium discord, click here.
Top Plays:
Corey Kispert (Gonzaga) vs. UCLA
I really like Gonzaga this weekend, especially their top 3 studs, Kispert, Suggs and Timme. Throughout this tournament, Kispert seems to be playing second fiddle to Timme. Kispert is extremely talented, and has proven he is capable of putting up huge stat lines. Kispert has a 22% usage rate on the year and a 26% shot rate. We get Kispert below 7k this weekend, and that price is just too low for a player of Kisperts ability. I think Kispert and Juzang are a great way to start your main builds this weekend. I would look to add Timme to that build, as he has the best matchup of any player this weekend. Timme will dominate this undersized UCLA frontcourt.
Johnny Juzang (UCLA) vs. Gonzaga
Juzang has been very good for this UCLA team throughout their tournament run. He has attempted 18 shots per game, and looks to be the guy that UCLA is comfortable with getting up as many shots as he can. It appears that the ankle will not be an issue for Juzang this weekend, which is great news for this UCLA team. Juzang is the alpha for this team. Gonzaga is going to put up impressive numbers, and UCLA will need Juzang to be in attack mode all night long. We get Juzang at a near 6k price tag. I will be locking him into my main lineup.
Davion Mitchell (Baylor) vs. Houston
Mitchell is priced at a very attractive price this weekend. Mitchell has been a player that has routinely been 8k plus. We get him priced below 6.5k this weekend due to two lackluster performances. Mitchell on the year has a 20% shot rate, 21% usage rate, 27% assist rate and is also shooting 45% from 3. Mitchell is a player that will contribute across multiple categories and adds increased value through his ability to accumulate steals. He has a top 100 steal rate on the year, and should really challenge this Houston backcourt. I expect all 3 of these players, Juzang, Mitchell and Kispert, to garner big time ownership due to their price, and rightfully so. They are great plays to build your main lineup around this weekend.
Others to consider: M. Sasser (HOU), Q. Grimes (HOU), J. Suggs (GONZ); J. Jaquez (UCLA); J. Gorham (HOU); M. Mayer (BAY); A. Nembhard (GONZ)
