March Madness - No. 1 Michigan vs. No. 1 Arizona Player Prop Best Bets - April 4, 8:50 p.m.

All odds provided by Betway.

Brayden Burries, Guard, Arizona Wildcats - Over 17.5 Points (-105)

Three of Michigan’s top four players stand 6’9”, which means there might be fewer opportunities for Arizona to score at the rim. Freshman guard Brayden Burries has been the Wildcats’ leading scorer during the tournament, and we think he’s going to continue that trend here with a plus matchup. With those big guys clogging the lanes, Buries’ ability to score in the mid- and long-range could be a go-to option for head coach Tommy Lloyd and company.

Buries scored just 14 points on 4-for-10 shooting in the win over Purdue in the Elite Eight, but he’d put up 18+ in seven of his 10 previous games, including six where he scored 20+. He has shone in big moments, scoring 21 points in Arizona’s Big Ten final win over Houston. And while he had just 14 against Purdue, 11 of those came in the second half when the Wildcats finally pulled away.

Koa Peat, Forward, Arizona Wildcats - To Record 15+ Points (-122)

While we don’t expect the Wildcats to have as much success as they usually do at the rim, it’s kind of hard to ignore just how good Koa Peat has been not just in this tournament but going back to the Big Ten final, where he also poured in 21 on 7-for-15 shooting against one of the toughest defenses in the league in the Houston Cougars.

Since then, Peat has gone for 15, 14, 21, and 20 points in four tournament games. He’s not their number one option, but he’s been coming close to it. With this prop offering nice value and Peat finally showing some consistency with 14+ in five straight games, we like him to hit this number in what we expect to be a high-scoring game.

Yaxel Lendeborg, Forward, Michigan Wolverines - To Record 2+ Made Three-Pointers(-166)

Michigan scores a lot of points for a lot of reasons, but the biggest one is no doubt senior forward Yaxel Lendeborg. After a quiet game in the Wolverines’ blowout win in Round 1, Lendeborg has put up 23+ in three straight games. In those three games he’s 10-for-19 from deep. He’s 6’9” but he’s got a stroke as smooth as butter from outside.

And he’s been on it all year from long range. He’s hitting at a 37 percent clip for the full campaign, and he doesn’t have many bad shooting nights. He’s hit multiple triples in 11 of his last 14 games, and it seems he’s only become a bigger part of the offense as the tournament has gone on, getting a whopping 19 shots up in that massive blowout win over Tennessee.
