College Basketball Parlay Picks, Odds & Player Props for 12/05

NCAA Best Bet Today #1: ⭐ Over 144.5 (-115) at FanDuel

Indiana visits Michigan for one of the top Big 10 games on Tuesday. The Hoosiers have looked decent early on, going 6-1 with their only loss coming to UCONN. Indiana started conference play with a 65-53 win over Maryland and will look to make it 2-0 with another victory over a struggling Michigan group. The Wolverines have lost four of their last five games and do not seem to be interested in playing any semblance of defense. 

We like Indiana- Michigan Over 144.5 (-115) at FanDuel. Michigan is one of the worst teams on the defensive end of the floor, ranking 261st in points allowed (76.4) and 224th in defensive effective field goal percentage (51%). It gets worse, with the Wolverines ranking 343 out of 351 teams in 3-point defense, allowing opponents to make 39% from beyond the arc. We expect an efficient Indiana team that shoots 58% from inside the arc (16th-best) to find success against Michigan's porous defense. 

But as bad as the Wolverines are on defense, the offense is solid. Michigan averages 82 points per game, which is 39th-best in the country. Its offensive effective field goal percentage ranks 18th at 57%. 

Michigan will score its share of points, but its poor defense will also allow Indiana to score consistently inside. Take the over in this matchup.

Betting Pick: Over 144.5 (-115) at FanDuel

NCAA Best Bet Today #2: ⭐ RayJ Dennis Over 5.5 Assists (-120) at FanDuel

RayJ Dennis has been one of the top performers for Baylor after transferring from Toledo. Dennis was the MAC Player of the Year in the conference and has had a strong transition to Baylor thus far. Dennis is averaging 13.9 points and 6.5 assists per game. 

We like RayJ Dennis Over 5.5 Assists (-120) at FanDuel. This prop appears to be set low, considering Dennis averages 6.3 assists per contest and has been distributing it well as of late. Dennis has recorded at least six assists in his last five games and has done so in six of eight games this season. 

Seton Hall's defense has also been susceptible to giving up assists this season. The Pirates rank 146th in assists allowed per game, giving up 12.3 assists per contest. We like Dennis to continue his high assist totals against Seton Hall. Take the over on his player prop. 

Betting Pick: RayJ Dennis Over 5.5 Assists (-120) at FanDuel

NCAA Best Bet Today #3: ⭐  Tristen Newton Over 5.5 Assists (-130) at FanDuel

Tristan Newton has continued to establish himself as one of the best do-it-all point guards in the country. He recorded a triple-double in a win over Manhattan, finishing with 15 points, 13 assists and 10 rebounds and is averaging 17.5 points, 7.9 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game this season. We're going to target one of Newton's props for the matchup against North Carolina. 

We like Tristen Newton Over 5.5 Assists (-130) FanDuel. Newton has recorded at least six assists in five of his last six games this season. The only reason he wasn't six for six is because he was more aggressive hunting his shot in the loss to Kansas, scoring 31 points while making 10 of 18 from the field, including 6 of 9 from 3-point range. 

Considering it took an offensive anomaly to keep him below this prop for the first time in almost a month, we're going to back Newton to get back to his normal assist figures on the season. North Carolina will also look to push the pace, which should allow more transition opportunities for Newton to set up his teammates. 

Betting Pick: Tristen Newton Over 5.5 Assists (-130) at FanDuel
