Pick ATS: Virginia Tech +3 (-110)
The Blue Devils are favored on the road, but Virginia Tech is a solid NCAAB bet to keep things close at home.
Virginia Tech’s offense has gotten hot in its past three games, averaging 83.7 points while shooting 52.5% from the field in that time. The Hokies have also been tough to slow down from beyond the arc as they have shot it at a 42.7% clip in their last three games.
Duke, meanwhile, has struggled to stop opposing teams’ shooters this season. It is 10th in the ACC, allowing teams to shoot at 43.2% from the field and 11th from 3-point range, giving them up at a 34.1% clip. The Blue Devils have won two of their last three, but in the loss, they allowed Pitt to shoot 50% from three and score 80 points.
The Hokies have also been playing solid defense, allowing 72 points a game in their last three. That, combined with their hot shooting that Duke is likely to have trouble stopping again, should help Virginia Tech keep it tight at home.
Player Prop: Hunter Cattoor At Least Three 3-Point FGs Made (+139)
Although you could take Hunter Cattoor at over 1.5 3-point field goals made for a more reliable play, Cattoor has been playing well lately, and at plus odds, there’s solid value to make an NCAAB pick at three 3-pointers.
Cattoor has hit three 3-pointers in his last three games, averaging 53.3% shooting from the arc in that time. He has at least three in four of the last five games in which he played the full game. Cattoor has also been solid shooting the 3-pointer at home, recording a 43.4% 3-point percentage. With Duke’s struggles slowing shooters, he’s a solid play to have another good night from beyond the arc.
