UNC Wilmington -7 is my play because Patrick Wessler's scoring inside gives the Seahawks a way to pull away from Kent State.
Kent allowed Louisiana Tech to make 20 of 32 two-point attempts in an 85-75 road loss on Nov. 2. Wessler just scored 24 points on 8-for-11 shooting in Saturday's 78-75 win at East Carolina, with all 8 baskets coming inside the arc.
Kent also gave Louisiana Tech 30 free-throw attempts. Wessler earned 12 at ECU. His two-point scoring and ability to draw fouls are the matchup I'm backing to create separation at Trask.
CJ Luster II scored 21 and hit 5 of 8 threes in that same win. Tahlan Pettway added 15 off the bench, including the go-ahead three with 46 seconds left.
