🔥 Milos Uzan Over 12.5 points ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Purdue ranks 341st in the country in two-point defense, allowing 56.2% of opposing field goal attempts to drop through the net. In a previous preview, we highlighted J’Wan Roberts as a primary beneficiary of that tendency.
Another candidate is Milos Uzan, who has recorded the second-most two-point makes on the Cougars roster this season. As a primary ball-handler, we could see Uzan creating his own looks if the Boilermakers give him driving lanes to the rim.
Uzan averages 11.5 points per game on the season, but has logged 14 or more points in four of five games during this postseason run for the Cougars.
📊 Best odds: -105 via BetMGM ($10 to win $9.52)

🔥 LJ Cryer 3+ assists ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Purdue’s tendency to allow easy two-point buckets also has the potential to influence the assist total for LJ Cryer in this matchup.
Purdue does a strong job defensively limiting Cryer’s bread-and-butter as a scorer, ranking 34th nationally in three-point defense. But the Boilermakers’ weakness inside could nudge Cryer to find the open man more frequently than he typically would when spotting up on the perimeter.
Cryer averages just 1.9 assists per game on the season but has racked up assist totals of four and three, respectively, thus far in the NCAA Tournament. Cryer’s standard assists line sits at 1.5 with heavy juice to -190 on Over, so we’ll take the alternate assists total, 3+ assists with +155 odds from DraftKings.
📊 Best odds: +155 via DraftKings ($10 to win $15.50)
🔥 Trey Kaufman-Renn Over 6.5 rebounds ⭐⭐⭐⭐
While I do project a downturn in the ease of Purdue’s rebounding endeavors in this matchup, this line on Trey Kaufman-Renn should still be attainable for the junior forward. Kaufman-Renn averages 6.5 rebounds per game, but he’s cleared this mark in seven consecutive contests, including a 15-board output against McNeese in the second round.
Houston won’t give Kaufman-Renn as many uncontested rebounds as the Cowboys did, but the Cougars aren’t necessarily elite enough on the defensive glass (115th in the country) to completely deny TKR, who averages 2.62 offensive rebounds per game.
📊 Best odds: -115 via BetMGM ($10 to win $9.52)
