Read the rest of our UConn vs Miami Final Four betting tips:
UConn can knock down the three, hitting 40% of its shots from behind the arc in the tournament. And it shares the ball fantastically — averaging 20.9 assists per game in the tournament.
It has a dominant big man in Adama Sanogo, and his reserve Donovan Clingan has had a solid tournament — both are major keys to the Huskies being ranked second in offensive rebounding percentage, according to KenPom.
Miami is on a nice, surprise run but it isn’t on the back of its defense. And UConn is able to take advantage with its third-ranked offense, according to KenPom.
UConn vs Miami Player Props
Andre Jackson Jr. Over 5.5 Assists (-110) • DraftKings Sportsbook
WAGER: 1 Unit
Jackson Jr. has done the dirty work for the Huskies, averaging 7.8 points, 7.8 assists, and 7 rebounds per game. He also had 10 assists in the blowout win over Gonzaga, doing so without a turnover.
Jackson Jr. has gone Over this number in each of the first four tournament games. And against arguably the worst defense he’s seen in the NCAA tournament — with plenty of places to go with the ball — he gets Over this number.
Jordan Hawkins Over 21.5 Pts+Reb+Ast (-130) • DraftKings Sportsbook
WAGER: 1 Unit
You have to lay a bit of juice on this one, but this line seems completely misguided to me.
Hawkins has been the leading scorer for UConn in the last two games — scoring 20 and 24 points, respectively — and it’ll continue to look at him to score against Miami.
Although he doesn’t normally put up huge assists and rebounding numbers — averaging 3.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game this season — he could realistically score 22 points in this game and not even need any to get over 21.5 points, rebounds, and assists.
