BetMGM: MSU plays at a slow pace and allows one of the lowest effective FG% in the nation. They also force a high rate of turnovers. So even though they allow a high assist rate, the other rate stats more than make up for it. Projecting Elliott for an average of 1 assist.

He’s only cleared this in 3 of his last 11 games and that was with Pitt averaging 79.8 points a game over that stretch. They face a Miss St. team that plays at a snails pace and plays suffocating defense which is why Pitt’s team total is just 65.5 here. Projecting him closer to 1.0 assists with a 70% chance to stay under 1.5

This is a play on the matchup, which should be brutal for Burton. Miss St packs the paint and doesn’t allow much around the basket - they allow the 7th fewest pts from 2P in the nation. Burton doesn’t shoot well from the outside (only 18/58 from 3P this season), with 78% of his points coming via the 2P. And Miss St plays really slow (334/363 in tempo) - it’s hard to see him racking up both points AND assists, with limited possessions.
